Abstract

Abstract: The two dimensional finite element analysis model for the settlement of oil tanks over natural soils are established based on the Guangxi Petroleum annual 10 million metric tons refinery project. The soil parameters are back analyzed from the settlement observation results. The results indicate that the computed settlements are slightly greater than the monitored data and therefore the safe tank operation can be warranted. The post construction monitoring is needed since the settlement beneath the oils tanks might be long term.

Key words: Foundation Soils, Oil Tanks, Settlement, Finite Element Analysis
