The widespread use of vertical cylindrical tanks puts the question of their sustainable design. Snow load brings the greatest contribution to the stress-strain state of the supporting structures of vertical tanks spherical domed coatings. The coefficients of the external pressure on the walls and coating of the wind were also determined. The obtained results can be used to develop effective design solutions for domed coatings of the oil tanks.
