Camplas Technology

Sponsor Description:

All Camplas tanks are designed by a means of biaxial design envelope as laid down in BS 4994 —1987 using two or three complimentary helical winding angles providing maximum strength in all directions. This accommodates all the expected loadings and takes into account pressure, vacuum, aging, fatigue and external forces such as wind and ground pressure. The design programme has evolved from 33 years of tank manufacturing and the practical application of the design criteria laid down in BS 4994. This has been extended over the years to accommodate tanks which are not covered by the standard such as multi-cradle horizontal tanks, buried tanks and even seismic loading for possible earthquakes. The validity of the design has been proven recently by tests carried out on 20 year old tanks to BS 4994 and qualified by Kingston University, Surrey which show that there is no significant deterioration in tanks which have been exposed to the most arduous of conditions compared to newly made tanks of exactly the same design and construction.
