25、976-1 : 1997 BSI 1997 1 Scope This Part 1 of European Standard EN 976 specifies the requirements and associated test methods for horizontal, cylindrical single wall tanks made of glass reinforced thermosetting resins (hereafter called tanks), and for their accessories, used for the underground non-p
26、ressure storage of liquid petroleum based fuels. The tanks specified by this European Standard are tanks with one or more compartments and with or without the possibility of leak detection. This European Standard covers two types of tanks, type A with manway, type B without manway and two classes of
27、 tank stiffness, class 1 and class 2. It also covers two grades of tanks, grade 1 for use with all petroleum based fuels and grade 2 limited to use with diesel fuels and heating oils. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publ
28、ications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revisi

32、rporating reinforcement materials and processing agents and possibly fillers and/or additives. The specific materials selection is based on the finished tank meeting all the requirements of this European Standard. 3.2 Resins The thermosetting resins used shall be unsaturated polyester and phenylacry
33、late (vinylester) resins. 3.3 Reinforcement materials The reinforcement shall be E-type glass with a sizing allowing bonding between glass and resin. The glass may be in the form of cut or uncut rovings, mats or fabrics. Other types of surface reinforcement materials (C or E glass or suitable synthe
34、tic materials) may be used, in particular for the in- and outside layers of the tank. Surfacing mats shall be E-type glass, C glass or synthetic materials. 3.4 Processing agents Processing agents, for example catalysts, accelerators, inhibitors, monomers, hardeners and thixotropic agents, are added
35、to the resin as needed. 3.5 Fillers Fillers are inert materials mainly intended to add bulk. Fillers can be used in the structural wall but shall not be used in the internal and external layers. Their maximum particle size shall not exceed the lesser of the two values, 1 mm or 1/5 of the total wall
36、thickness. The use of fillers shall not prevent visual inspection. 3.6 Additives Additives are materials such as fire retarding agents, pigments, etc. Additives shall be inert with respect to the environment, the other materials and the tank contents. The use of additives shall not prevent visual in
37、spection. 3.7 Structural core A structural core is a build-up of materials, e.g. foam or honeycomb, to obtain the necessary stiffness of a sandwich construction. The structural core shall allow proper adhesion to the inner and outer GRP laminate. 3.8 Rib core A rib core is a material (such as foam,
38、cardboard or moulded plastic) applied on to the cylinder wall and over which a stiffening rib is laminated. The rib core is not required to have a structural contribution in itself and bond of the rib material to the core is also not required.Page 4 EN 976-1 : 1997 BSI 1997 l 2 1 6t 1 l 1 1 0t 1 l 2

Possible execution of a butt joint 4 Tank construction 4.1 General The tank consists of a cylinder wall (e.g. solid wall with or without ribs, sandwich construction), tank ends, manways, fittings and other accessories. The parts of the tank wall directly b
40、eneath openings (see 4.5 and 4.6) shall be provided with a protection plate. 4.2 Cylinder wall and tank end build-up 4.2.1 Internal layer The internal surface shall be smooth and resistant to the stored liquid. The internal layer shall be fabricated from chopped glass fibres and resin. The internal
41、layer shall be finished with a resin surface layer of minimum 0,2 mm thick; any reinforcement provided shall be a surfacing mat. When the thickness of the resin surface layer is more than 0,3 mm, surfacing mat reinforcement shall be provided. 4.2.2 Structural wall The structural wall shall be constr
42、ucted from resin and E-type glass. Fillers and additives may be used. The structural wall may also include stiffening elements such as ribs or a sandwich structure. 4.2.3 External layer The external layer shall be resistant to soils, ground water and to any spilled liquid. The external layer shall b
43、e fabricated from chopped glass fibres and resin. The external layer shall be finished with a resin surface layer of minimum 0,2 mm thick; any reinforcement provided shall be a surfacing mat. When the thickness of the resin surface layer is more than 0,3 mm, surfacing mat reinforcement shall be prov
44、ided. 4.3 Jointing of cylinder walls and/or tank ends 4.3.1 General Joints shall have a load bearing capacity and a resistance to chemicals at least as good as the jointed parts. Cut edges shall be treated to preserve the mechanical and chemical properties. 4.3.2 Socket joints If the jointed parts a
45、re constructed with the same resin throughout the full wall and if the assembly is finished on the outside with a laminate of calculated thickness and with a total length to each side of at least 16 times the thickness of the thickest of the jointed parts, there is no special requirement for the ins
46、ide finish of the joint. If one of these conditions is not fulfilled, the inside of the joint shall be finished with a layer containing the equivalent of two mats of 450 g/m 2 over a length at each side of at least 16 times the thickness of the thickest of the jointed parts. This finishing layer sha
47、ll fulfil the requirements of 4.2.1. 4.3.3 Butt joints If the jointed parts are constructed with the same resin throughout the full wall and if the distance between the stiffening ribs embracing the joint is at most equal to 900 mm, there is no special requirement for the inside finish of the joint.
48、 The outside of the joint shall be covered with a laminate with a total length to each side of at least 16 times its thickness and of a thickness at least equal to the thickness of the thicker of the jointed parts. If one of the conditions of the first paragraph is not fulfilled, two solutions are p
49、ossible. 1) The inside of the joint shall be finished with a layer containing the equivalent of two mats of 450 g/m 2 over a length at each side of at least 16 times the thickness of the thicker of the jointed parts. This finishing layer shall fulfil the requirements of 4.2.1. 2) The joint shall be constructed according to figure 1, whereby the V shaped joint opening shall be laminated using a resin with chemical characteristics at least equal to the chemical characteristics of the internal layer.
