1 Modification to the Foreword
nd
In the Foreword, in the section "National Annex for EN 1993-4-2", in the 2 paragraph, replace the whole list
with the following one:
"
– 2.2 (1)
– 2.2 (3)
– 2.9.2 (3)P
– 2.9.3 (2)
– 3.3 (3)
– 4.1.4 (3)".
2 Modifications to 1.1, Scope
Replace Paragraph (1) with the following one (including the present Footnote 1)):
"(1) Part 4-2 of Eurocode 3 provides principles and application rules for the structural design of vertical
cylindrical, conical and pedestal above ground steel tanks for the storage of liquid products with the following
characteristics:
3
a) tanks with capacity greater than 100 m (100 000 litres);
b) tanks that have significant fabrication or assembly on site;
c) shop-fabricated tanks with conical bottoms, supported on skirts or columns;
d) tanks with characteristic internal pressures above the liquid surface not more negative than −0,1 bar
1)
and not greater than 0,5 bar ;
e) design metal temperatures limited to the ranges:
1) tanks constructed using structural steel grades, −50ºC < T < +300ºC;
2) tanks constructed using austenitic stainless steels, −165ºC < T < +300ºC;
3) tanks constructed with special steel grades that have defined yield strengths up to higher
temperatures, −165ºC < T < the max. defined temperature for the grade;
4) tanks susceptible to failure by fatigue, T < 150ºC;
f) in cylindrical ground-supported tanks, the maximum design liquid level not higher than the top of the
cylindrical shell.".
Replace Paragraph (8) with the following one:
"(8) This Part 4-2 does not cover:
 tanks of rectangular planform;
3
 tanks with capacity below 100 m ;
 tanks exposed to fire (refer to EN 1993-1-2);

1) All pressures are in bar gauge unless otherwise specified.

 tanks with dished ends and diameter less than 5 m;
 cylindrical tanks with an aspect ratio of height to diameter greater than 3.".
3 Modifications to 1.2, Normative references
Replace "EN 1990" with "EN 1990:2002".
In the list of the parts of EN 1993, replace "Part 1.6:" with "Part 1.6:2007:".
In the list of the parts of EN 1993, replace "Part 1.10:" with "Part 1.10:2005:".
In the list of the parts of EN 1993, replace "Part 4.1:" with "Part 4.1:2007:".
4 Modifications to 1.5, Terms and definitions
In 1.5.1, replace the last sentence with the following one: "In the tank construction industry, this term is also
taken to have the special meaning of the vertical wall of a cylindrical tank, see 1.5.9.".
Delete Entry 1.5.3 and renumber the following numbered entries accordingly.
In 1.5.5 (new numbering 1.5.4), delete in the last sentence: "irrespective of whether the tank is circular or
rectangular in plan".
Replace the content of Entry 1.5.6 (new numbering 1.5.5) with "This term is used to refer to the stress-free
middle surface when a shell is subject to pure bending in any direction.".
In 1.5.8, (new numbering 1.5.7) replace the second sentence with: "In this standard it is assumed to be
circular in plan.".
Replace the content of Entry 1.5.9 (new numbering 1.5.8) with: "The term shell is often used in the tank
industry to refer to the vertical wall of a cylindrical tank. This usage is slightly confusing when compared with
the general definition (see EN 1993-1-6) given in 1.5.1, it is quite widely used, so it is also used in this
standard where appropriate. Where any confusion may arise, the term cylindrical wall is used instead.".
st
In 1.5.13 (new numbering 1.5.12), in the 1 sentence, delete "or flat plate elements".
nd
In 1.5.13 (new numbering 1.5.12), in the 2 sentence, delete "or box".
In 1.5.15 (new numbering 1.5.14), replace: "The shell-roof junction is the junction between the vertical wall
and the roof. It is sometimes referred to as the eaves junction, though this usage is more common for solids
storages." with: "The shell-roof junction is the junction between the vertical wall and the roof. It is also referred
to as the top angle or the eaves junction.".
In 1.5.17 (new numbering 1.5.16), in the first sentence, delete "or flat plate" and "or a vertical stiffener on a
box".
In 1.5.18 (new numbering 1.5.17), delete the last sentence: "In a shell of revolution it is circular, but in
rectangular structures is takes the rectangular form of the plan section.".
In 1.5.20 (new numbering 1.5.19), replace the first sentence with: "A ring girder or ring beam is a
circumferential stiffener which has bending stiffness and strength in the plane of the circular section of a shell
and also normal to that plane.".
In 1.5.20 (new numbering 1.5.19), delete in the second sentence: "or box structure".
In 1.5.23 (new numbering 1.5.22), replace: "An external tank structure to contain fluid that may escape by
leakage or accident from the primary tank. This type of structure is used where the primary tank contains toxic
or dangerous fluids." with: "An external tank structure to contain fluid that may escape by leakage or accident

from the primary tank. This type of structure is usually used where the primary tank contains toxic or
dangerous fluids. A catch basin also effectively reduces the requirement for an extensive area of fluid
containment around the tank.".
