Design of Circular Overhead Water Tank, Modelling and Analysis Using Staad-Pro

Abstract

Water tanks are frequently used for storing potable water. Due to inadequacy of water around the world, significance is given more on the water storage project. So water storage is very essential as it plays a vital role in everyday life. water tanks and Storage reservoirs are used to store water, petroleum products, liquid petroleum, and similar liquids. All tanks are analysed and designed as crack free structures to get rid off any leakage. This project provides a brief explanation of the theory underlying the manual analysis and design of an overhead circular water tank using the Working Stress Method (WSM) and software modeling and analysis using Stat-Pro.

Introduction

I. INTRODUCTION

Water is an essential necessity for human survival, and the distribution of enough water in a given region depends on the water tank's design. An elevated water tank is a type of water storage container used to maintain a water supply at a height high enough to pressurize a water distribution system. They were swept away by the wind. Damage of the important lifeline facility like elevated water tanks often results in significant hardships even after the occurrence of the disaster, claiming human casualties and economic loss to build environment. Investigating the effects of wind has been recognized as a necessary step to understand the natural hazards and its risk to the society in the long run. Because water towers rely on the elevation of water caused by gravity and hydrostatic pressure to force the water into home and industrial water distribution systems, they can provide water even when there is no electricity.

A. Objective

1. To make a study about design of water tank.
2. Design of Circular Overhead Water Tank by WSM and other staging members by LSM Method.
3. To make a study about the Analysis of Water Tank using Staad-Pro.
4. To make a study about the guidelines for the Design of Liquid retaining Structures according to IS Code.

II. METHODOLODY

In this project we have designed a Water Tank Manually and same analyzed on Staad-Pro software.

A. Data Collection

Details of data collection

B. Population Forcasting

We have forecasted the population by using Arithmetic Mean Method. We have collected the data from our proposed site and received data from 1979. Has been forecasted till 2041 by Arithmetic Progression.Population Forecasted is 3500 no of people.

III. DESIGN CRITERIA

A. Loads

1. Dead Load: The weight of all permanent construction including domes, ring beams,  walls, stair case, slabs and foundation are considered. The unit weights of materials are in accordance with IS: 875-1987. The unit weight of Concrete (RCC),Soil,, Structural steel is taken as 25 kN/m3 ,18 kN/m3 ,78.5 kN/m3.
2. Live Load: The Live load on roof slab, walk way slab and staircase be 1.5 kN/m2, 1.5 kN/m2 and 2.0 kN/m2 respectively.
3. Water Load: Weight of water due to gross volume is calculated and applied on bottom of container unit wt. of water is 10 kN/m3
4. Wind Load: As per figure -1 IS: 875(PART-3)-1978) design wind pressure = 0.6Vz2 = 2117.01 N/m2
5. Earthquake load (EQ)

It is in zone-III as per IS 1893 part1 2002

Seismic coefficient αh = βIFo(Sa/g)

β , coefficient of depending upon soil foundation = 1

I, factor depending upon importance of factor = 1.5

So, seismic zone factor for average acceleration spectra = 0.16

Sa/g is considered as per CI 6.3.5,(IS 1893,part-1).

Conclusion

1) The tank has been analyzed in STAAD Pro software. 2) In terms of the loads used, tank design is safe from software design. 3) We use circular water tanks for larger capacity while rectangular water tanks are used for smaller capacities. Since our proposed tank is of 1.40 lakh capacity we had prepared and analyzed the circular over head tank in STAAD Pro software. 4) Design of water tank is also done by manually by WSM and LSM method. 5) Design of water tank by manually and by using software are within limit and safe.
