A 50 inches diameter storage tank is used to store air at an internal pressure of 625 psi with a FS = 4.5 based on ultimate strength. If the welded joints have a joint strength efficiency of 80% and the steel used to create the tank has an equivalent strength similar to C1118, a. find a suitable plate thickness of the tank. Compare the stresses for both diametral section and longitudinal section b. Using the thickness solved in (a), determine the pressure to cause actual failure to the vessel
