The secondary liquid container, if applicable, can be of steel or of concrete or a combination of both. A primary liquid container made of pre-stressed concrete is excluded from the scope of this document. This document provides general requirements and specifies principles and application rules for the structural design of the tank system during construction, testing, commissioning, operation (accidental included), and decommissioning. This document applies to all tank system components attached to and located within the liquid, vapour, purge gas, membrane or membrane tank outer containers of the tank system. It does not address the requirements for ancillary equipment such as pumps, pumpwells, valves, instrumentation, external staircases and walkways, roof mounted platforms, external pipe supports, etc. The requirements for those components are covered by the relevant European Standards, s
