I ve been asked to design a cargo tank of capacity 16 cubic meter. in ASME Sec. XII modal app. 1, table 1-1.4M, min. thickness to be used is given. But i m confused how to select appropriate thickness? what is l/cm? Also what type of heads are to be used for rectangular tank with round corners, where mandatory app. VIII is applicable.

Any further guidance regarding design of transportation vessels as per applicable code.
