BOLTED RTP CONSTRUCTION
THE PRODUCT OF CHOICE
Bolted RTP construction has become the clear front runner and proven
“product of choice” for storage facilities globally. Essentially, RTP design is a
bolted version of a field-weld tank design. This bolted design is a precision
engineered product. It does not leak or develop leaks. It has virtually outdated
and eliminated the use of API 12B (flanged panel) and other types of bolted
tank construction in bulk storage applications.
Bolted RTP construction evolved out of the hybrid tank designs that Tank
Connection developed for the power industry. In power facility applications
(both dry & liquid), RTP construction is recognized as an equal or preferred
design to field-weld construction. These tanks offer unlimited options including elevated concrete floors, elevated steel floors,
spiral stairways, mass flow hopper designs, drive through skirt designs, elevated on structural steel, penthouses, etc.

Bolted RTP tanks feature a smoothwall (no ledges) tank interior, exact manufacturing tolerances and
the #1 rated powder coat process available for bulk storage applications. Our powder coat system runs
over twice the length of a football field and includes 14 stations, 21 stages and over 110 application
processes, checks and inspections. Our design, manufacturing and field installation performance is
second to none in the industry.
To further complement its quality and efficiency, the field construction process for bolted RTP construction
leverages a synchronized jacking process that allows field crews to build large bulk silos at grade level. By
utilizing our process, bolted storage tank systems can be installed in one-third the time required for field-
weld construction. The end result is high quality tank field installation services at the lowest factored costs.
The dollar and time savings to our clients can be significant.
Tank Connection is an ISO 9001 certified company, that is also employee owned. You get
the best of both worlds when an extensive ISO program is implemented by employee
owners. We start each day with a mindset and focus for excellence to deliver storage
tank products and services of unmatched quality. Our focus has led us down a path to
lead the industry in much more than the design, manufacture and installation of the
top performance bulk storage silos available. We lead the industry in all areas of storage
system performance including:
