Abstract: Elevated water tank is used for storage of water which is used for distribution to the public at certain pressure head. In high seismic zones the safety of water tank becomes point of great concern which in case of failure becomes very hazardous for public because of deficiency of water for public use and difficulty in putting fire away caused by earthquake. The water tank must be designed as much strong so that it can perform during and after earthquake without failing. The aim of this study is to design the elevated water tank as per Indian standard code and European standard code on ETABS software. In this study an elevated circular water tank of 35 m3 capacity is being designed in seismic zone III as per IS code and spectrum zone II as per Euro code for hard soil, medium soil and soft soil conditions. During analysis of tank the values of base moment, base shear, storey displacement and storey drift is being obtained and compared in both seismic zones for hard soil, medium soil and soft soil. Keywords: base shear, base moment, ETABS, elevated water tank.


RC intze water tanks are constructed for storage and suppling of water through a certain height with adequate pressure of water distribution. Many overhead water tanks affected due to certainty like earthquake that can induce large lateral forces. So, there is a necessity to Understand and examine the behavior of intze tank supported on framing in context to different soil types under the seismic forces. This paper evaluates the experimental output of seismic analysis that compares shear and moments at base for different seismic zone (II, III, IV, V) in different type of soil conditions.

During post-earthquake requirement the staging of elevated water tanks are considered as essential structures. Failure of staging leads to collapse of watertank so required to control the vibration of staging. In This paper elevated circular tank supported with frame was modeled to control the vibration of staging. Non-linear dynamic analysis (time-history analysis) was performed on model by using SAP2000 software to study the seismic behaviour. The additional dissipation of energy occurs by using damper constitute an effective technique for the earthquake reduction of staging members and In this study an attempt has been made to use the X-plate metallic steel damper for reducing the seismic response.

In most regions of the country, early damage of elevated water tanks during their service life is becoming an increasing concern. The majority of damage occurs in tanks due to a lack of knowledge in design and ignoring continuity effect. Elevated water tank are used for storage of water at certain height and supplying water for essential usage. Hence damage of such structure endanger supply of drinking water and severe economical losses. The main purpose of this research is to determine the importance of continuity analysis in practical application and use of staadpro software to analyse an elevated circular water tank. The bottom joint of water tank is examined using continuity effect. This is the common joint where base slab, wall, bottom rings beam, gallery, column and base beam join. water tank is subjected to self-weight and hydrostatic Pressure due to water. Continuity effect increase stress, Hoop tension, BM hence its necessary to consider its effect while designing the tank. The results obtained from staadpro software is nearly same with manual result. This indicated that staadpro is suitable for design and analysis of water tanks. Three model having capacity of 55 m3, 125 m3 and 221 m3 situated in yavatmal, buldana and ramtek district is taken for analysis. Seismic analysis and wind analysis is also carried out on this model for safety purpose.

It was discovered that reinforced concrete elevated water tanks with frame staging outperformed reinforced concrete elevated water tanks with shaft staging in terms of seismic resistance. These can be due to the frame staging's seismic energy absorption capability. As a result, the primary goal of this research is to better understand the seismic behavior and performance characteristics of elevated water tanks with frame staging. Furthermore, when compared to other shapes, circular tanks have the smallest surface area for a given tank size. As a result, the amount of material needed for a circular water tank is less than for other shapes. As a result, a circular water tank was chosen, and seismic analysis of elevated RC circular water tanks was carried out according to IITK-GSDMA guidelines, with the behavior of the water tank analysed for various parameters such as zone factor, soil condition, and different staging heights. SAP 2000 was used to determine the structure's modal characteristics (mode shapes and modal participation mass ratio).


Water tanks are the capacity booths for putting away water. Raised water tanks are built to be able to deliver required head with the purpose that the water will movement affected by gravity the development exercise of water tanks is as antique as enlightened guy. The water tanks project has an firstrate want as it serves ingesting water for amazing populace from exceptional metropolitan urban groups to the little population dwelling in cities and towns. The smaller than ordinary project is led for a time of 15 days to have total all the way right down to earth information on unique tactics and issues appeared within the field. An change issue like construction factors, layout Parameters, information of Formwork, information of aid, process of Water treatment Plant and Execution had been controlled over the span of our smaller than regular undertaking."improved water tanks" via raising water tank, the enlargement upward push makes a conveyance strain at the tank outlet. The profile of water tanks begins offevolved with the utility parameters, consequently the type of materials applied and the form of water tank become directed by way of approach of those factors: 1. Vicinity of the water tank (inner, out of doors, over the floor or underground). 2. Volume of water tank need to preserve. 3. What the water may be utilized for? Four. Temperature of territory wherein might be located away, fear for solidifying. Five. Weight required conveying water. 6. How the water to be conveys to the water tank. 7. Wind and quake plan contemplations allow water tanks to endure seismic and excessive wind occasions

The results of a case study of the internal forces caused by earthquake in two examples of cable-stayed bridges are presented. A comparison is made between the behaviour of a model in which the structure is idealized without the foundation system and a model in which both the structure and the supporting foundation are idealized. The effects of varying the soil conditions on the seismic response are assessed. Also, the effects of out-of-phase support movements, caused by the lapse of time required for the seismic waves to travel from one support to the other, are considered. It is concluded that the effects of these parameters are significant and should not be ignored in the seismic analysis of cable-stayed bridges. Key words: bridges, cable-stayed, dynamic, earthquake, internal forces, seismic, soil–structure interaction.

Reinforced concrete elevated water tanks supported on shaft type staging system are popularly constructed now a days for storage of water for water supply schemes. If slip form is used for casting of the shaft staging, the water towers generally require lesser time for construction. Elevated water tanks are top heavy structure especially in the tank full condition. It is often a critical question in structural design that what should be the proper structural model adopted for design of such class of structure. Should the shaft be designed as a hollow cylindrical column subjected to axial compression or is it essentially a R.C. cylindrical shell subjected to membrane forces under axial compression. To better understand it is proposed to cast such R.C. shells and after water curing for 28 days shall be subjected to axial compressive load in a compressive strength testing machine. The failure pattern of the shells shall be observed critically to get a proper understanding of behavior of such R.C shaft supported elevated water tank structures.

The ground supported tanks are firmly attached with ground and tank walls are subjected to hydrostatic as well as hydrodynamic pressure due to seismic forces. Base of the tank is subjected to weight of water and pressure of soil. Top of the tanks may be covered and is designed by using IS 3370:2009 Part (I, II) [4] and IS 1893:2007 (part-2) draft code[3] is used for the seismic analysis of the tank. This paper gives idea behind the design of liquid retaining structure (rectangular ground supported water tank) using working stress method. This paper includes the seismic analysis and design of the tank. The values are obtained with the help of spreadsheet program. Analysis of ground supported water tank has been carried out and relationship between tank capacity with moment capacity and reinforcement area, base shear with impulsive height and overturning moment with convective height is derived.
