So, it is a two way slab.

Minimum thickness = =5.70 ≈ 6inch, say 6 inch thick slab.

Load calculation:
Dead load of water = 62.5x (6 1) =312.5 psf
Self weight of the slab = ×150 = 62.5 psf

Floor finish (Assume) = 10.0 psf

Dead load of water = 62.5 (7 1) = 375 psf

Now,

Self weight of the slab = 150 = 75 psf

Floor finish (Assume) = 10.0 psf


Total Dead load = 460 psf = 0.460 ksf
Live Load = 10 psf = 0.01 ksf

Floor finish (Assume) = 10.0 psf


Total Dead load = 72.5 psf = .072 ksf
Live Load = 10 psf = 0.01 ksf
Moment calculation:

8.2 Design of Underground water reservoir

There are two underground water reservoirs (49' x 23' each) at basement floor for
fulfilling the water demand of the commercial and official purposes. Water storage is
made also considering one hour Fire Fighting works. The design of this water tank will be
done as per WSD.

Determination of water requirement

* Official purposes
Water requirement = 45 L/P/D
No. of floor = 15
No. of unit = 30
No. of person = 20 (Assume)
Total required volume of water = 45× 15× 30 × 20 = 405000 L

* Commercial purposes
Water requirement = 45 L/P/D
No. of floor = 10
No. of person = 440 (Assume)/floor
Total required volume of water = 45× 10 × 440 = 198000 L

* Garage purposes
Water requirement = 70 L/P/D
No. of floor = 1
No. of person = 45 (Assume)
Total required volume of water = 70× 1× 45 = 3150 L

* Fire safety purposes


Consider, water storage for 1 hr. fighting,
Water requirement for 1 floor = 250 gal/min
= 250 × 60 gal/hr = 15000 gal/hr
Water requirement for two floor = 2 × 15000 gal = 30000 gal
= 113562.36 L = 113563 L

153

Total water requirement for whole structures = (113563 +198000 + 3150 +113563)
= 719713 L
There are two underground water tanks,

Water requirement for per tank = = 359857L = 359m3

= 359× 3.283 ft3


= 12668.2312 ft3
Tank dimension
Let,
Inside width dimension, B =23 ft = 7.01m.
Height = 9.5 ft
Free board = 0.5 ft
Final height = 9.5+0.5=10 ft =3.048 m.

So inside length dimension, L =

Design of long & short walls


The water tank is surrounded by mat foundation .So, the long and short walls are not
required for design as same as other type of underground reservoirs surrounded by earth.
The walls of this reservoirs will be constructed by providing minimum thickness and
reinforcing bars.
The thickness of all walls = 10 inch

Vertical & Horizontal reinforcement:

Use 12mm bars

6.67 inch  6.50 inch c/c

So use 12mm bars @ 6.50 inch c/c

Design of top slab

= = 2.39 > 2

So, it is a one way slab.


Minimum thickness = 20 inch (Assume)

Load calculation:
Live load = 50.0 psf

Self weight of the slab = ×150 = 250 psf

Floor finish (assume) = 10.0 psf

Total load = 310 psf = 0.31 ksf

d check:

[L= 21.33 + = 23 ft]

 Main steel

Use 16mm bars

Spacing = = 2.81 inch  2.5 inch c/c

Use 16mm @ 2.5" c/c.

 Distribution Reinforcement
Minimum reinforcement = 0.003bt = 0.003×12×20 = 0.72
Use 12mm bars

3.33 inch  3 inch c/c

Use 12mm bars @ 3 inch c/c.

Design of bottom slab


Since the water tank is surrounded by mat foundation. So, design of bottom slab is not
required.
