The use of agitator tanks in the Peruvian industry is varied, but only a few companies have platforms to operate them [1]. In the mining sector, agitator tanks are used for gold leaching, where the efficiency and quality of the process are crucial, especially in development projects [5]. However, the combination of two different design standards API 650 for the tank, and AISC for the platform, presents a significant structural challenge and risk. This thesis evaluates the integration of both standards in the design of a agitator tank with platform. The approachs has three key stages. The first consists of the design of the tank, determining its dimensions and optimum operating characteristics. The second stage consists of the identification of platform loads, applying the AISC LRFD method, selecting the appropriate beam profile. Finally, in the third stage, a structural analysis is carried out to validate the reliability of the designed using specialized software such as SimSolid and RFEM. All this, in order to determine whether the system design with both standards is able to allow good engineering. To evaluate the deformation of the system and the integrity of the joint due to the different regulations, a platform with a W14x74 beam was used to better distribute the loads and optimize the design of a 12x12 meter tank. The results obtainedallow estabishing a standard engineering design process for this system, allowing its analysis for other agitator tanks.
