0.6((10.0000)(30.0000)(40.0000)) = 7200.0000 lbs

Resistance to Sliding (Vs) = 0.4(Ws + Wr + Wf - 0.6(Uw)(π )(D)²/4) =

0.4(39139.4343 + 7707.7847 + 7378.2930 - 0.6(16.2713)(π )(30.0000)²/4]
= 18929.8398 lbs

Check for Sliding (tank empty):

Sliding Force (Vw) = [(PwDH + PwrAr)] =
[((10.0000)(30.0000)(40.0000) +
(10.00)(84.38))] = 12,843.75 lbs

Resistance to Sliding (Vs) = 0.4(Ws + Wr + Wf) =

0.4(39139.4343 + 7707.7847 + 7378.2930) = 21,690.20 lbs

Foundation Loads

Dead Load = 497 lbf/ft

Dead Load + Live Load = 647 lbf/ft
Dead Load + Snow Load = 786 lbf/ft
Wind Load + Dead Load = 891 lbf/ft

(Wind Foundation Moment = 278,496 ft-lbs)

(Wind Horizontal Force = 12,000 lbs)

Seismic Load + Dead Load (ringwall foundation) = 1,699 lbf/ft

Seismic Load + Dead Load (slab foundation) = 1,987 lbf/ft
(Note: For Seismic the dead load has a portion of the vertical acceleration
added to it and includes a portion of the snow load)
(Seismic Overturning Moment (ringwall) (Mrw) = 829,489 ft-lbs)
(Seismic Overturning Moment (slab) (Ms) = 1,032,975 ft-lbs)

(Seismic Horizontal Force = 47,006 lbs)

↓
Product Load + Bottom = 2,506 lbf/ft²
