Analysis of Elevated Liquid Storage Tank on Sloping Ground with Variable HeightsBy Shaikh Asif Shaikh Hakim, R.S. Londhe
Abstract: Past earthquake events have shown that even well-designed elevated water tanks can suffer severe damage or collapse. Much of this damage occurs due to a limited understanding of the behavior and appropriate selection of supporting systems during the design process. With a large mass concentrated at the top of slender supports, these tanks are especially vulnerable to horizontal seismic forces. Therefore, it is crucial to evaluate the strength and performance …
