Target should indicate direction of swing opening (up or down) and height above bottom where suction will be lost with swing on bottom support.

C.1.4 Roofs

C.1.4.1 Deck Plate Internal Corrosion

For safety, before accessing the roof, check with ultrasonic instrument or lightly use a ball peen hammer to test the deck plate near the edge of the roof for thinning. (Corrosion normally attacks the deck plate at the edge of a fixed roof and at the rafters in the center of the roof first.)

C.1.4.2 Deck Plate External Corrosion

Visually inspect for paint failure, holes, pitting, and corrosion product on the roof deck.

C.1.4.3 Roof Deck Drainage

Look for indication of standing water. (Significant sagging of fixed roof deck indicates potential rafter failure. Large standing water areas on a floating roof indicate inadequate drainage design or, if to one side, a nonlevel roof with possible leaking pontoons.)

C.1.4.4 Level of Floating Roof

At several locations, measure distance from roof rim to a horizontal weld seam above the roof. A variance in the readings indicates a nonlevel roof with possible shell out‐of‐round, out‐of‐plumb, leaking pontoons, or hang‐up. On small diameter tanks, an unlevel condition can indicate unequal loading at that level.

C.1.4.5 Gas Test Internal Floating Roof

Test for explosive gas on top of the internal floating roof. Readings could indicate a leaking roof, leaking seal system, or inadequate ventilation of the area above the internal floating roof.

C.1.4.6 Roof Insulation

b Inspect for wet insulation under the weather coat.

c Remove small test sections of insulation and check roof deck for corrosion and holes near the edge of the insulated area.

C.1.4.7 Floating Roof Seal Systems

Inspect the condition of the seal, measure and record maximum rim spaces and sealto‐ shell gaps around the full roof circumference at the level of inspection.

NOTE Inspection of the seal and measurement of the rim spaces and seal‐to‐shell gaps at more than one level may be necessary to more fully determine if any problems exist at other levels of tank operation).

Measure and record annular space at 30‐ft spacing (minimum of four quadrants) around roof and record. Measurements should be taken in directly opposite pairs.

1) _______ _______ Opposite pair 1.

2) _______ _______ Opposite pair 2.

c Check if seal fabric on primary shoe seals is pulling shoes away from shell (fabric not wide enough).

d Inspect fabric for deterioration, holes, tears, and cracks.

e Inspect visible metallic parts for corrosion and wear.

f Inspect for openings in seals that would permit vapor emissions.

g Inspect for protruding bolt or rivet heads against the shell.

h Pull both primary and secondary seal systems back all around the shell to check their operation.

i Inspect secondary seals for signs of buckling or indications that their angle with the shell is too shallow.

C.1.5.2 Gauge Well a Inspect visible portion of the gauge well for thinning, size of slots, and cover condition.

b Check for a hold‐off distance marker and tab with hold‐off distance (legible).

c On floating roofs, inspect condition of roof guide for gauge well, particularly the condition of the rollers for grooving.

d If accessible, check the distance from the gauge well pipe to the tank shell at different levels.

e If tank has a gauge well washer, check valve for leakage and for presence of a bull plug or blind flange.

C.1.5.3 Fixed Roof Scaffold Support

Inspect scaffold support for corrosion, wear, and structural soundness.

C.1.5.4 Autogauge: Inspection Hatch and Guides (Fixed Roof) a Check the hatch for corrosion and missing bolts.

b Look for corrosion on the tape guide’s and float guide’s wire anchors.

C.1.5.5 Autogauge: Float Well Cover a Inspect for corrosion.

b Check tape cable for wear or fraying caused by rubbing on the cover.

C.1.5.6 Sample Hatch (Internal Floating Roof) a Check overall conditions.

b When equipped with a fabric seal, check for automatic sealing after sampling.

c When equipped with a recoil reel opening device, check for proper operations.

C.1.5.7 Roof‐mounted Vents (Internal Floating Roof)

Check condition of screens, locking and pivot pins.

C.1.5.8 Gauging Platform Drip Ring

On fixed roof tanks with drip rings under the gauging platform or sampling area, inspect for plugged drain return to the tank.

C.1.5.9 Emergency Roof Drains

Inspect vapor plugs for emergency drain: that seal fabric discs are slightly smaller than the pipe ID and that fabric seal is above the liquid level.

C.1.5.10 Removable Roof Leg Racks

Check for leg racks on roof.

C.1.5.11 Vacuum Breakers

Report size, number, and type of vacuum breakers. Inspect vacuum breakers. If high legs are set, check for setting of mechanical breaker in high leg position.
