<p>ISO 7507-1:2003 specifies a method for the calibration of substantially vertical cylindrical tanks by measuring the tank using a strapping tape.</p>
<p>This method is known as the strapping method and is suitable for use as a working method, a reference method or a referee method.</p>
<p>The operation of strapping, the corrections to be made and the calculations leading to the compilation of the tank capacity table are described.</p>
<p>This method does not apply to abnormally deformed, e.g. dented or non-circular, tanks.</p>
<p>This method is suitable for tilted tanks with a deviation of up to 3 % from the vertical, provided that a correction for the measured tilt is applied in the calculations.</p>
