I'm checking the anchor bolts details computed with tank ver 2.50. In the solution module it is indicated:" Anchor bolts details per API650 , 3.12 ". This section does not exist in the API650 10th edition.
At the moment, which section of API650 2007 is governing? 5.11.3 or 5.12.2 ? It seems to me that 5.11.3 should not be considered anymore, but I'm not sure.

There are various Sections in the Code that may indicate you need anchor bolts (5.11, App E, App F). If any of these Sections requires bolts, then Section 5.12 is invoked.
