These enginoering topmts ‘are intended to be a summary of current engineering knowlege and design practice, or ‘resent guidelines for the design of petrochemical feilities. They represent consenses opinion of task committee members active in ther development. Tuese five ASCE engioesring ceports are 3) Design of Anchor Bolts in Petrochemical Facilities 2) Design of Blas Resistant Buildings in Petrochemical Facies 3) Design of Secondary Containment in Petrochemical Facilities 4) Guidelines for Seismic Evaluation and Design of Petrochemical Facilities 8) Wind Loads on Petrochemical Facilites ‘The ASCE Petrochemical Energy Committee was organized by A. K. Gupta in 199) 4nd intaly chaired by Curley Turmer. Under thei leadership the five task eommitiees were formed. More recently, the Conerittes hs boen chaired by Joseph A.
