GRP tanks and vessels for use above ground - Part 3: Design and workmanship

This European Standard gives requirements for the design, fabrication, inspection, testing and verification of GRP tanks and vessels with or without Thermoplastics lining for storage or processing of fluids, factory made or site built, non pressurised or pressurised up to 10 bar, for use above ground. The terms vessels and tanks as used in this European Standard include branches up to the point of connection to pipe work or other equipment by bolting and supports, brackets or other attachments bonded directly to the shell. In addition to the definitive requirements, this European Standard also requires the items in Clause 5 to be fully documented. This European Standard covers vessels and tanks subject to temperatures between - 40 °C and + 120 °C.

Oberirdische GFK-Tanks und -Behälter - Teil 3: Auslegung und Herstellung

Diese Europäische Norm enthält Anforderungen an die Auslegung, Fertigung, Prüfung sowie die Nachweise
für oberirdische GFK-Tanks und -Behälter mit oder ohne thermoplastische Auskleidung, die im Werk oder auf
der Baustelle gefertigt und drucklos oder bis zu 10 bar druckbeaufschlagt sind und zur Lagerung oder
Verarbeitung von Fluiden dienen.
Die Begriffe Behälter und Tank im Sinne der vorliegenden Europäischen Norm umfassen auch Abzweige bis
zur Verbindung mit Rohrleitungen oder anderen Anlagenteilen, wie Verschraubungen, Stützen, Halterungen
und andere Anbauteile, die unmittelbar mit der Schale verbunden sind. Diese Europäische Norm verlangt
neben den festgelegten Anforderungen auch, dass die in Abschnitt 5 angegebenen Unterlagen vollständig
dokumentiert werden.
Die vorliegende Europäische Norm gilt für Behälter und Tanks, die Temperaturen zwischen –40 °C und
+120 °C ausgesetzt sind.
ANMERKUNG Es ist möglich, dass aufgrund der Entwicklung auf dem Gebiet der Harztechnologie Tanks und Behälter
zukünftig für Betriebstemperaturen über +120 °C geeignet sind. Sollte diese Situation eintreten, und ein Hersteller will sich
diese Entwicklungen zu Nutze machen, haben alle anderen Anforderungen der Norm weiterhin Gültigkeit, die Konstruktion
der betreffenden Tanks und Behälter muss jedoch nach dem unter 7.8.2 aufgeführten Verfahren erfolgen.
Die vorliegende Europäische Norm gilt nicht für:
- Tanks und Behälter für den Transport von Fluiden;
- unterirdische Lagertanks;
- kugelförmige Behälter;
- Behälter und Tanks mit unregelmäßiger Form;
- Tanks und Behälter mit doppelter Sicherheitshülle;
- Tanks und Behälter, die bei Explosion oder Undichtheit die Emission radioaktiver Strahlungen zur Folge
haben können;
- einteilige und mehrteilige oberirdische faserverstärkte Tanks für die Lagerung von Kaltwasser (siehe
EN 13280:2001).

Réservoirs et récipients en PRV pour applications hors sol - Partie 3: Conception et fabrication

La présente Norme européenne spécifie les exigences concernant la conception, la fabrication, le contrôle,
les essais et la vérification des réservoirs et des récipients en PRV avec ou sans revêtement en
thermoplastique, pour applications hors sol, destinés au stockage ou au traitement de fluides, fabriqués en
atelier ou construits sur site, non soumis à pression ou soumis à une pression allant jusqu’à 10 bar.
Les termes récipients et réservoirs, tels qu’ils sont utilisés dans la présente Norme européenne, incluent les
tubulures jusqu’au point de raccordement à la tuyauterie ou à un autre équipement par boulonnage et les
supports, consoles ou autres attaches fixés directement sur l’enveloppe. Outre les exigences qui sont
imposées, la présente Norme européenne exige également que les points de l’Article 5 soient complètement
documentés.
La présente Norme européenne couvre les réservoirs et les récipients soumis à des températures comprises
entre – 40 °C et + 120 °C.
NOTE Il est possible que les futurs progrès dans le domaine de la technologie des résines permettent d’envisager
l’utilisation de réservoirs et de récipients à des températures de service supérieures à + 120 °C. Si une telle situation
devait se présenter et qu’un fabricant souhaite profiter de tels développements, alors toutes les autres exigences de la
norme doivent être maintenues et de tels réservoirs et récipients doivent être conçus uniquement conformément à la
méthode de conception avancée donnée en 7.8.3.
Sont exclus de la présente Norme européenne :
- les réservoirs et récipients destinés au transport des fluides ;
- les réservoirs de stockage, enterrés ;
- les récipients sphériques ;
- les récipients et réservoirs de forme irrégulière ;
- les réservoirs et récipients à double enveloppe ;
- les réservoirs et récipients qui sont soumis à un risque d’explosion ou dont la défaillance risque de causer
une émission radioactive ;

Nadzemni rezervoarji iz armiranega poliestra - 3. del: Konstruiranje in izdelava (vključno z dopolnilom A1)

Ta evropski standard podaja zahteve za načrtovanje, izdelavo, pregled, preskušanje in potrditev GRP rezervoarjev z ali brez termoplastične obloge, za shranjevanje ali obdelavo tekočin, tovarniško izdelanih ali zgrajenih na lokaciji, ki niso pod pritiskom oziroma so pod pritiskom do 10 barov, in so namenjeni nadzemni uporabi. Izraz rezervoarji, kot je uporabljen v tem evropskem standardu, zajema tudi veje do točke priključka na cevovod ali drugo opremo z vijaki in podporami, konzolami ali drugimi priključki, pritrjenimi neposredno na lupino. Poleg končnih zahteva, ta evropski standard prav tako zahteva, da so postavke iz Klavzule 5 v celoti dokumentirane. Ta evropski standard zajema rezervoarje, izpostavljene temperaturam med - 40 °C in + 120 °C.

EN 13121-3:2008+A1:2010 (E) 7 Introduction EN 13121 consists of the following parts under the general title "GRP tanks and vessels for use above ground":  Part 1: Raw materials — Specification conditions and acceptance conditions  Part 2: Composite materials — Chemical resistance  Part 3: Design and workmanship (this standard)  Part 4: Delivery, installation and maintenance These four parts together define the responsibilities of the tank or vessel manufacturer and the materials to be used in their manufacture. Part 1 of this standard specifies the requirements and acceptance conditions for the raw materials - resins, curing agents, Thermoplastics linings, reinforcing materials and additives. These requirements are necessary in order to establish the chemical resistance properties determined in Part 2 and the mechanical, thermal and design properties determined in Part 3. Together with the workmanship principles determined in Part 3, requirements and acceptance conditions for raw materials ensure that the tank or vessel will be able to meet its design requirements. Part 4 of this standard specifies recommendations for delivery, handling, installation and maintenance of GRP tanks and vessels. The design and manufacture of GRP tanks and vessels involve a number of different materials such as resins, thermoplastics and reinforcing fibres and a number of different manufacturing methods. It is implicit that tanks and vessels conforming to this standard should be made only by manufacturers who are competent and suitably equipped to fulfil all requirements, using materials manufactured by competent and experienced material manufacturers. Metallic vessels, and those manufactured from other isotropic, homogeneous materials, are conveniently designed by calculating permissible loads based on measured tensile and ductility properties. GRP, on the other hand, is a laminar material, manufactured through the successive application of individual layers of reinforcement. As a result there are many possible combinations of reinforcement type that will meet the structural requirement of any one-design case. This
