 Summary: (Short walls)

i. Horizontal reinforcement at inner face

For lateral pressure horizontal reinforcement required is 12mm

Ø @ 175 c/c in mid-span.

For water pressure, horizontal reinforcement required is 12mm

Ø @ 175 mm c/c at ends.

Hence provide greater of two;

Thus, provide 12 mm Ø @ 175 mm c/c at inner face for full

height.

ii. Horizontal reinforcement at outer face:-

For lateral earth pressure horizontal reinforcement required

is 12mm Ø @ 175 mm c/c at support.

For water pressure horizontal reinforcement required is 1mm Ø

@ 175mm c/c at mid-span.

Thus, provide 12 mm Ø @ 175 mm c/c.

iii. Vertical reinforcement at inner face;

Provide 16 mm Ø @ 125 mm c/c at inner face for complete height

iv. Vertical reinforcement at outer face;

Provide 16 mm Ø @ 125 mm c/c at outside face for complete

height.

Summary: (Long walls)

For lateral pressure of earth in vertical direction

Provide 16mm Ø @ 125mm c/c for complete height.

ii. Vertical reinforcement at inner face;

For water pressure in vertical direction

Provide 16mm Ø @ 125m c/c for complete height.

L/B > 2 ………..( one way slab)

Assuming 20cm thick with finishes

Spacing of 10 mm Ø = 𝑥1000 = 154.9mm
542

Provide 10 mm Ø 150mm c/c

Considering the effect of moving vehicles, provide the

reinforcement as double jail i.e bottom face and top face
steel.

F} Design of bottom slab:-

If there were no sub-soil only nominal reinforcement would be

required. However because of saturated sub soil there will be
uplift pressure on bottom slab.
H1= 2.9 + Bottom slab Thk. = 3 +0.3 =3.3

pu = w. H = 9810 x 3.3 = 32373 N/m2

a) Check for floatation

pu = pu x B x L

= 32373 x 5 x 18.6

= 3.01 x 106

Total downward force consists of wt of tank

Assume 300 mm thick slab

Wt. of wall = 0.23 x (5 + 5 + 18.69 +18.69 ) x 3 x 25000

= 814.2 x103 N

Wt. of roof slab and finishes = 0.2 x 5 x 18.69 x 25000

= 468.25 x 103 N

Wt. of base slab = 18.69 x 5 x 0.3 x 25000

= 700.87 x 103 N

Total = 790.06 x 103 + 468.25 x103 + 700.87 x103

= 1.98 x 106 N

Since this is less than floatation force, hence need to

provide projections in vertical walls.

A F.O.S of @ 1.1 is needed

Design base slab as one way slab

Upward water pressure = 31392 N/m2

self wt. = 1*1*0.3*25000

Net upward pressure = 31392 - 7500 = 23892 N/m2

Wt. of wall /m run = 0.23 * 3 * 1 * 25000

= 17250 N/m

Wt. of roof slab = 0.2 * (2.5 +0.23)*1*25000 = 13650 N

Wt. of earth on projection = 17000 * 3 * 1 *0.5= 25500 N/m

Net unbalanced force/m run = 31392*(6.46*1) –
