Abstract

Ground-supported liquid storage tanks are commonly used in water treatment plants and chemical industries. These tank containers are mostly made with concrete. Fixity at the base of the container largely depends on the type of joint between the base slab and container. It also depends on the thickness of the container and base slab. Practically, a perfect hinge or fixed condition is difficult to achieve. Practically, some yielding might occur at the base that may result in outward deflection of container wall at the base. IS: 3370 (Part IV) 1967 (Reaffirmed 1999) has not provided design data for the analysis of tanks with loss of restraint at the base. In this study, circular water storage tanks subjected to hydrostatic pressure are analyzed using continuity analysis considering the loss of restraint. Internal forces developed in the container due to different levels of restraint are compared and results are presented.
