Comparative Seismic Analysis of Ground Supported Circular Water Tank Using Codal Provision

Authors(2) :-Ridhdhesh Bhojavia, Dhruti J Dhyani

The seismic analysis of ground supported circular water tank resting on soft soil, medium soil and hard soil consisting of mass tank wall, mass of water and mass of base slab is carried out. “In this paper a parametric study on spring mass model, time period in impulsive and convective mode, base shear, bending moment, overturning moment, pressure due to vertical excitation, maximum hydrodynamic pressure due to impulsive and convective mass of water is considered. The seismic analysis of ground supported circular water tank performed using IS 1893 part 2: 2014 and IS 1893 part 1: 2016.”
