Designing Of The Tank:

For designing the tank have thickness equal to 300mm (t=300mm)and its
height is 3m (H=3m) and (H2/Dt=2) we will follow the procedure,

First we must find the diameter of the tank

H2

Dt
32
=2
D(0.3)

D=15m

 Design For Wall

P= Sanitary Coefficient X1.7 X Lateral Force

P=1.65 X 1.7 X25

P=70.125 KN/m3

P*R=70.125 X 7.5

P*R=525.9375 KN/m2

This value must be adjusted by (TableA-3)

As(prov.) = 2*201.06*(1000/210)
As(prov.) =1914.857 mm2

 Check For Cracking Stress

The stress in concrete must not exceed maximum allowable cracking

stress (approximately 0.1 f'c)

f'c=[C Es As + Tmax(unfactored)/(Ac + nAs)]

f'c=1.159 > 2.75 OK

 Design For Bending Moment

Bending moments in wall strip can be calculated by using (Table A-4)

P= 1.3*1.7*25

P=55.25 KN/m

P*H2 =55.25*9

P*H2 = 497.25 KN.m/m
