The invention provides a construction method of a
flame-retardant
support system for an
oil storage tank, and relates to the technical field of construction of upper-layer and lower-layer complete structures of the
oil storage tank. The construction method comprises the steps that foundation scribing is conducted, specifically, the horizontal height of a supporting piece mounted in the
oil storage tank is determined, and the overall foundation surface is determined; and mounting is conducted, specifically, a
flame-retardant support and
flame-retardant particles at the bottom of the
oil tank are mounted by constructors through the determined foundation surface. The flame-retardant support constructed through the construction method is matched with a tank body to achieve the functions of flame retarding, oil seepage and
water seepage, after irregularly-leaked oil is extinguished through the flame-retardant support, the irregularly-leaked oil permeates into the oil
storage tank, if oil which still burns with the extremely
small probability exists, a flame-retardant layer laid at the bottom of the tank body can achieve secondary flame retarding on the oil in the tank body, the temperature of an overall cavity of the bottom of the
oil tank is decreased, the oil naturally flows into an oil drainage well, under the action of a double-layer extinguishing mechanism, the flowing speed of the oil is greatly decreased, and a certain buffer time is bought for fire rescue before the fire rescue arrives so as to prevent accidents from being further expanded.
