This standard only applies to tanks with uniformly supported bottoms and to tanks in non-refrigerated service that have a maximum design temperature of 93 degrees Celcius (200 degrees Fahrenheit) or less. This standard was originally published in 1973, with the most recent 13th Edition being released in March of 2020.
