Usually a book covers one or the other. --Wayne Geyer, Executive Vice-President, Steel Tank Institute I think this is a valuable text in that it does a very good job presenting the two types of ASTs. --Darryl J. Butkos, Hydrogeologist and Environmental Engineer The U.S. aboveground storage tank (AST) market will approach $2.0 billion in 1995 and has an annual growth rate of approximately 5 percent. Shop-built ASTs have proliferated over the last 10 years and are replacing the underground tanks that have caused a large percentage of groundwater contamination. Larger field-erected tanks are now found at almost every industrial facility because of their greater reliability and the lessened risk of environmental spills. The Aboveground Steel Storage Tank Handbook discusses the myriad of regulations, codes, and manufacturing standards and shows how they are intertwined. It is the first handbook on aboveground storage tanks that explains the unique differences between field-erected ASTs and shop-built ASTs. The authors have divided the Handbook into four easy-to-understand sections: Markets, Regulations, Standards, and Products. Anyone who finds himself or herself working through the maze of the AST compliance paperwork will find this book to be a great benefit as a single-source reference guide.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eTHE AST MARKET.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The Aboveground Steel Storage Tank Market.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Environmental Issues for Aboveground Storage Tanks.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e MAJOR REGULATIONS OF ASTs.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The Clean Water Act.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The Clean Air Act.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Additional Federal Regulations.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e National Fire Protection Association Codes.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Additonal Fire Codes.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e State Regulations.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e MAJOR MANUFACTURING STANDARDS OF ASTs.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e American Petroleum Institute Standards.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e National Design Standards of Field-Erected Tanks.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Underwriters Laboratories Codes.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Steel Tank Institute Codes.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e AST PRODUCTS.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e New Field-Erected Aboveground Storage Tank Products.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Existing Field-Erected Aboveground Storage Tank Products.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Shop-Built Aboveground Storage Tank Products.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Shop-Built Aboveground Storage Tank InstallationInstructions.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Appendices.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Glossary of Industry Acronyms and Abbreviations.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Index.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Civil engineering, surveying \u0026amp; building [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Civil engineering, surveying \u0026amp; building\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Civil%20engineering,%20surveying%20\u0026amp;%20building%20%5BTN%5D%22\"\u003eTN\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52286393712920,"sku":"9780471286295","price":140.79,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9780471286295.jpg?v=1781551239","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/the-aboveground-steel-storage-tank-handbook-paperback-softback-9780471286295","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
