Abstract

The single-layer spherical reticulated shell structure is used as the fixed roof of a 20000 m3 internal floating roof tank. In the process of inspection and maintenance, the reticulated shell collapsed. In this paper, the strength, stiffness and stability of the design structure of the tank roof reticulated shell are calculated based on the finite element model, and the weak points of the shell structure are revealed, and the failure causes of the shell structure are comprehensively analyzed.
