Abstract: An internal floating roof for a storage tank includes a rim, a first plurality of girders, including a first girder, a second plurality of girders, including a second girder, a deck sheet, a first cap channel, a second cap channel, and a pontoon coupled to the first girder. The first plurality of girders extend in a first direction across the rim, wherein the first plurality of girders comprises a first girder. The second plurality of girders extend in a second direction, cross-wise to the first direction. The deck sheet is disposed on a first top surface of the first girder and a second top surface of the second girder. The first cap channel is coupled to a first top channel of the first girder. The first cap channel comprises a first foot configured to press a first edge of the deck sheet against the first top surface of the first girder. The first foot is welded to the deck sheet along a first length of the first cap channel. The second cap channel is coupled to a second top channel of the second girder, wherein the second cap channel comprises a second foot configured to press a second edge of the deck sheet against the second top surface of the second girder. The second foot is welded to the deck sheet along a second length of the second cap channel.

Abstract: A roof panel of a sealed floating roof for a storage tank includes a first frame segment and a second frame segment. Each of the first and second frame segments includes a first depression configured to abut an adjacent top depression of a respective frame segment of a respective adjacent roof panel to form a walled trough to guide an automatic welder along a weld joint during a welding process. The roof panel also includes a panel component. The panel component includes a top sheet and a pan-shaped bottom sheet coupled to the top sheet. The pan-shaped bottom sheet is coupled to a respective upper lip of each of the first and second frame segments.
