39、 using theodolites. Thecircumference of the tank is determined at different levels byreference to a base line, which may be either a reference cir-cumference measured by strapping or a base line between twostations of a theodolite measured by means of a tape or by anoptical method. External circumfe

40、rences are corrected to givetrue internal circumferences. The method is an alternative toother methods such as strapping (Chapter 2, Section 2A) andthe optical-reference-line method (Chapter 2, Section 2B).1 Scope1.1This part species a calibration procedure for applica-tion to tanks above 26 ft in d

41、iameter with cylindrical coursesthat are substantially vertical. It provides a method for deter-mining the volumetric quantity contained within a tank atgauged liquid levels. The measurement required to determinethe radius may be made internally (Clause 8) or externally(Clause 9). The external metho

42、d is applicable only to tanksthat are free of insulation. 1.2Abnormally deformed tanks; e.g., dented or non-circulartanks are excluded from this section, API MPMSChapter 2.1.3This method is suitable for tilted tanks up to 3% devia-tion from the vertical, provided that a correction is applied forthe
