6 Analysis and Design of RECTANGULAR SEWERAGE TANK
Underground Rectilinear concrete walls of rectangular tanks and other containers are usually
subjected to lateral hydrostatic pressure from the contained material or from externally earthed
retained material. This pressure is assumed here to have an intensity that is constant at any one
level but varies in the vertical direction. Other sources of such anti-symmetrical loading on walls
are circumferential prestressing, weight of overhanging rectangular platforms, or peripheral
channels.
This type of loading produces un-symmetrical radial displacement. The wall edges at the top or
bottom may be free to rotate or translate, and may be restrained by the base or the cover. Thus,
the edges may receive un-symmetrical radial shear or bending moment. Such end forces will also
develop at a restrained edge due to the effects of un-symmetrical temperature variation,
shrinkage, or creep of concrete.
For the analysis of a wall of this type it is sufficient to consider the forces and the deformations of
a typical elemental strip parallel to the cylinder axis. The radial displacement of the strip must be
accompanied by hoop forces. As will be studied later, the elemental strip behaves as a beam on
elastic foundation, which receives transverse reaction forces proportional at every point to the
deflection of the beam. The analysis constitutes a solution of one governing differential equation
relating the deflection to the applied load.
The objective of this project is to provide a solution of the aforementioned soil-structure
interaction problem of underground rectangular tanks (differential equation solved by FEM) to
obtain the reactions on the edges and the internal forces in rectangular walls. For the sake of
simplicity in practical application, PCA design tables are provided and their use illustrated by PCA
design examples. Although the tables are mainly intended for use in the design of concrete tanks,
they can also be utilized in the analysis of silos, pipes, or any rectangular shell when subjected to
axisymmetrical loading and support conditions. The tables are also applicable for the more
general problem often met in practice of a beam on elastic foundation.

2.1 LINEAR ANALYSIS OF IN-PLANE STRUCTURES USING STIFFNESS MATRIX METHOD
The theoretical foundation for matrix (stiffness) method of structural analysis was laid and
developed by many scientists:
James, C. Maxwell, [1864] who introduced the method of Consistent Deformations (flexibility
method).
Georg, A. Maney, [1915] who developed the Slope-Deflection method (stiffness method).
These classical methods are considered to be the precursors of the matrix (Flexibility and Stiffness)
method, respectively. In the pre-computer era, the main disadvantage of these earlier methods was
that they required direct solution of Simultaneous Equations (formidable task by hand calculations
in cases more than a few unknowns).
The invention of computers in the late-1940s revolutionized structural analysis. As computers could
solve large systems of Simultaneous Equations, the analysis methods yielding solutions in that form
were no longer at a disadvantage, but in fact were preferred, because Simultaneous Equations could
be expressed in matrix form and conveniently programmed for solution on computers.
Levy, S., [1947] is generally considered to have been the first to introduce the flexibility method,
by generalizing the classical method of consistent deformations.
Falkenheimer, H., Langefors, B., and Denke, P. H., [1950], many subsequent researches extended
the flexibility method and expressed in matrix form are:
Livesley, R. K., [1954], is generally considered to have been the first to introduce the stiffness
matrix in 1954, by generalizing the classical method of slop-deflections.
Argyris, J. H., and Kelsey, S., [1954], the two subsequent researches presented a formulation for
stiffness matrices based on Energy Principles.
Turner, M. T., Clough, R. W., and Martin, H. C., [1956], derived stiffness matrices for truss
members and frame members using the finite element approach, and introduced the now popular
Direct Stiffness Method for generating the structure stiffness matrix.
Livesley, R. K., [1956], presented the Nonlinear Formulation of the stiffness method for stability
analysis of frames.
Since the mid-1950s, the development of Stiffness Method has been continued at a tremendous
pace, with research efforts in the recent years directed mainly toward formulating procedures for
Dynamic and Nonlinear analysis of structures, and developing efficient Computational Techniques
(load incremental procedures and Modified Newton-Raphson for solving nonlinear Equations) for
analyzing large structures and large displacements. Among those researchers are: S. S. Archer, C.
Birnstiel, R. H. Gallagher, J. Padlog, J. S. przemieniecki, C. K. Wang, and E. L. Wilson and
many others.
LIVESLEY, R. K. [1964] described the application of the Newton- Raphson procedure to nonlinear
structures. His analysis is general and no equations are presented for framed structures. However,
he did illustrate the analysis of a guyed tower.

3.1. ANALYSIS METHOD USING STIFFNESS MATRIX
Stiffness Matrix method is one of the most efficient means for solving a in-plane Elastic Structures
(frames and girders) type of problem based on following steps. It is easy to account for Boundary
Conditions, and self weight (Girder).
It is more versatile (multi-purposes) than the Finite Difference method, which requires a different
equation formulation for ends and the boundary conditions, and great difficulty is had if the Beam
elements are of different lengths.
Only the basic elements of the Stiffness Matrix Method will be introduce here, and the researcher
is referred to KassimAli (1999) (15) or Bowles (1974) if more background is required. This method
was interpolated to computer program which is given in appendix A. The program algorithm is
explained in details in chapter four and it conveniently coded for the user. Also the same program
was used to obtain the results of the numerical examples given in chapter four of this study.
3.1.1 GENERAL EQUATION AND THEIR SOLUTION
For the Beam Element, shown in Fig.(3.1), at any node (i) (junction of two or more members) on
the in-plane structure the equilibrium equation is:
𝑃𝑖 = 𝐵𝑖𝐹𝑖……………………Eq.(3.1)
Which states that the external node force P is equated to the internal member forces F using bridging
constants A. It should be is understand that (Pi, Fi) are used for either Forces (Shear) or Bending
Moments. This equation is shorthand notation for several values of Ai, Fi summed to equal the ith
nodal force.
For the full set of nodes on any in-plane structure and using matrix notation where P, F are Columns
Vectors and A is a Rectangular Matrix, this becomes:
{𝑃𝑖} = [𝐵𝑖]{𝐹𝑖}……………………Eq.(3.2)
Fig.(3.1) Beam Element, global and local forces-deformations designation.
11
11 Analysis and Design of RECTANGULAR SEWERAGE TANK
An Equation relating internal-member deformation e at any node to the external nodal
displacements is:
{𝑒𝑖} = [𝐴𝑖]{𝑋𝑖}………………………..(a)
Where both e and X may be rotations (in radians) or translations. From the Reciprocal Theorem in
structural mechanics it can be shown that the [A] matrix is exactly the transpose of the [B] matrix,
thus:
{𝑒𝑖} = [𝐵]𝑇
{𝑋𝑖}……………………..(b)
The internal-member forces {F} are related to the internal-member displacements {e} as:
{𝐹𝑖} = [𝑘]{𝑒𝑖}…………………………(c)
These three equations are the fundamental equations in the Stiffness Matrix Method of analysis:
Substituting (b) into (c),
{𝐹𝑖} = [𝑘]{𝑒𝑖} = [𝑘][𝐵]𝑇
𝑋…………………………(d)
Substituting (d) into (a),
{𝑃𝑖} = [𝐵]{𝐹𝑖} = [𝐵][𝑘][𝐵]𝑇
𝑋…………………………(e)
Note the order of terms used in developing Eqs. (d) and (e}. Now the only unknowns in this system
of equations are the X’s: so the BKBT is inverted to obtain
{𝑋𝑖} = ([𝐵][𝑘] [𝐵]𝑇
)−1
{𝑃𝑖}…………………………(f)
And with the X’s values we can back-substitute into Eq. (d) to obtain the internal-member forces
which are necessary for design. This method gives two important pieces of information: (1) design
data and (2) deformation data.
The BKBT
matrix above is often called Overall assembly Matrix, since it represents the system of
equations for each P or X nodal entry. It is convenient to build it from one finite element of the
structure at a time and use superposition to build the global BKBT
from the Local element EBKBT
.
This is easily accomplished, since every entry in both the Global and Local BKBT with a unique
set of subscripts is placed into that subscript location in the BKBT; i.e., for i = 2, j = 5 all (2, 5)
subscripts in EBKBT
are added into the (2, 5) coordinate location of the global BKBT.
3.1.2. DEVELOPING THE ELEMENT [B] MATRIX
Consider the in-plane structure, simple beam, shown in Fig.(3.2) coded with four values of P-X
(note that two of these P-X values will be common to the next element) and the forces on the
element Fig.(3.2). The forces on the element include two internal Bending Moments and the shear
effect of the Bending Moments. The sign convention used is consistent with the developed
computer program BEF.

Fig.(3.2) In-plane structure divided into finite element, (b) Global coordinate system coding in (P-X) form,
(c) Local coordinate system coding in (F-e) form, (d) Summing of external and internal nodal forces.
Now at node (1), summing Moments (Fig.(3.2d))
𝑃1 = 𝐹1 + 0. 𝐹2
Similarly, summing forces and noting that the soil reaction (spring) forces are Global and will be
considered separately, we have:
𝑃2 =

In same manner the EA matrix for element (2) would contain P3 to P6.

3.1.4. DEVELOPING THE ELEMENT [kBT
] AND [BKBT
] MATRICES
The EkBT
matrix is formed by multiplying the [Ek] and the transpose of the [EB] matrix (in the
computer program this is done in place by proper use of subscripting) AT
goes always with e and
X. The EBkBT
will be also obtained in a similar.
Multiplying [Ek] and [EBT

From Fig.(3.4), summing of the vertical forces on a node 1 will produce:
𝑃2 −

𝐿
= 0.0
Since (F1+F2)/L is already included in the Global BkBT
, we could rewrite above equation to:
𝑃2 = 𝐵𝑘𝐵2𝑋2
𝑇
𝑋2 = [𝐵𝑘𝐵2𝑋2
𝑇
]𝑋2
A check on the correct formation of the EBkBT
and the global BkBT
is that it is always symmetrical
and there cannot be a zero on the diagonal.

3.1.5. DEVELOPING THE P MATRICES
The P matrix (a column vector) consists in zeroing the array and then inputting those node loads
that are nonzero. The usual design problem may involve several different loading cases or
conditions, as shown in Appendix II, so the array is of the form P(I, J) where (i) identifies the load
entry with respect to the node and P-X coding and (j) the load case.
It is necessary to know the sign convention of the (P-X) coding used in forming the [EA] matrix or
output may be in substantial error. Therefore; the sign convention will be as follow: the joint
translations are considered positive when they act in positive direction of Y-axis, and joint rotations
are considered positive when they rotate in counterclockwise direction.
For columns that are intermediate between two nodes, we may do one of two things:
1. Transfer the column loads to adjacent nodes prier to make problem sketch using superposition
concept.
2. Transfer the column loads to adjacent nodes as if the element has Fixed-Ends Actions so the
values include Fixed-End moments and shears (vertical loads).This procedure is strictly correct but
the massive amount of computations is seldom worth the small improvement in computational
precision.
3.1.6. BOUNDARY CONDITIONS
The particular advantage of the Stiffness Matrix method is to allow boundary conditions of known
displacement (translations or rotations). It is common in foundation analysis to have displacements
which are known to be zero (beam on rock, beam embedded in an anchor of some type, etc.). There
are two major cases of boundary conditions:
a. When the displacements are restrained (zero) in any particular node then the corresponding
rows and columns in the overall stiffness matrix will be eliminated (substitute by zeros).
b. When the (i) displacements are known (δ) in any particular node then the opposite position
in load vector [p] will have this known value (δ), and corresponding rows and columns in
the overall stiffness matrix will be eliminated (substitute by zeros) except the location of
(i,i) which will have unit value of (1.0).

4.1 INTRODUCTION
This chapter presents a brief description of the computer program applied in this study which
governs the problem of analysis and design of space concrete water rectangular tank structure
(sewage treatment plant tanks) using Finite Element Method (FEM). The program was carried
using STAAD.Pro (version 22), it is consist of three major parts; first the analysis of the in-plane
structure. Second part is the design of plate girder elements. Last part is the checking of RC Tanks
elements according to ACI-318 and ACI-350 Design Manual using USD designing method..
4.2 DEVELOPMENTS OF COMPUTER PROGRAM
4.2.1. First part; Analysis of space plated structure using FEM Method.
At first, the computer program will develop the [EB] and [Ek] for each in-plane (beam) element
from input data describing the member geometry (coordinates) and cross-section properties
(modulus of elasticity, moment of inertia, area, angle of rotation…etc). Then, the program will
develop element stiffness matrix [EBkBT
] for each element in global coordinate system, throughout
series of matrix operations (inverse, multiplication, and addition). Later on, the program will
assemble the overall stiffness matrix [BkBT
] which is also represented by [K]. Finally, a direct
solution of the general stiffness equation {P}=[K]{d}, where {P} matrix containing the known
externally applied loads, will yield the global displacements {X} (translations and rotations). The
computer program then rebuilds the [EB] and [Ek] to obtain the [EkBT
] and computes the internal
element forces (axial, shear and moments) and node reactions.
The sign convention used in this program is as follow: the joint translations are considered positive
when they act in positive direction of Y-axis, and joint rotations are considered positive when they
rotate in counterclockwise direction.
It should be noticed that all above steps should be carried out with proper indices that identifies the
(P-X) coding so that the entries are correctly inserted into their right position of matrix.
Let the number of nodes NN and since DOF is three for each node. Each element stiffness element
[EBkBT
] has (6x6) size but the overall assembled stiffness matrix [BkBT
] or [K] has (NPxNP) size
because of the assembling process, where NP = NN * 3, therefore;
{𝑃𝑁𝑃} = [𝐵𝑘𝐵𝑁𝑃 × 𝑁𝑃
𝑇 ]{𝑋𝑁𝑃}
This indicates that the System of Equations is just sufficient, which yields a square coefficient
matrix [NPxNP], the only type which can be inverted. It also gives a quick estimate of computer
needs, as the matrix is always the size of (NP x NP) the number of {P}. With proper coding, as
shown in Fig.(3.4).
The global [BkBT
] is banded with all zeros except for a diagonal strip of nonzero entries that is
twelve values wide. These twelve nonzero entries, six are identical (the band is symmetrical). There
are matrix reduction routines to solve these type half-band width problems. As a consequence the
actual matrix required (with a band reduction method) is only (NP x 6) entries instead of (NP x
NP).
It may be convenient to store the [EkBT
] on a separate array when the [BkBT
] is being built and
recall it to compute the internal element forces of the {F} matrix.

  • 5. 5 5 Analysis and Design of RECTANGULAR SEWERAGE TANK Chapter one Introduction INTRODUCTION
  • 6. 6 6 Analysis and Design of RECTANGULAR SEWERAGE TANK Underground Rectilinear concrete walls of rectangular tanks and other containers are usually subjected to lateral hydrostatic pressure from the contained material or from externally earthed retained material. This pressure is assumed here to have an intensity that is constant at any one level but varies in the vertical direction. Other sources of such anti-symmetrical loading on walls are circumferential prestressing, weight of overhanging rectangular platforms, or peripheral channels. This type of loading produces un-symmetrical radial displacement. The wall edges at the top or bottom may be free to rotate or translate, and may be restrained by the base or the cover. Thus, the edges may receive un-symmetrical radial shear or bending moment. Such end forces will also develop at a restrained edge due to the effects of un-symmetrical temperature variation, shrinkage, or creep of concrete. For the analysis of a wall of this type it is sufficient to consider the forces and the deformations of a typical elemental strip parallel to the cylinder axis. The radial displacement of the strip must be accompanied by hoop forces. As will be studied later, the elemental strip behaves as a beam on elastic foundation, which receives transverse reaction forces proportional at every point to the deflection of the beam. The analysis constitutes a solution of one governing differential equation relating the deflection to the applied load. The objective of this project is to provide a solution of the aforementioned soil-structure interaction problem of underground rectangular tanks (differential equation solved by FEM) to obtain the reactions on the edges and the internal forces in rectangular walls. For the sake of simplicity in practical application, PCA design tables are provided and their use illustrated by PCA design examples. Although the tables are mainly intended for use in the design of concrete tanks, they can also be utilized in the analysis of silos, pipes, or any rectangular shell when subjected to axisymmetrical loading and support conditions. The tables are also applicable for the more general problem often met in practice of a beam on elastic foundation.
  • 7. 7 7 Analysis and Design of RECTANGULAR SEWERAGE TANK Chapter two Literature
  • 8. 8 8 Analysis and Design of RECTANGULAR SEWERAGE TANK 2.1 LINEAR ANALYSIS OF IN-PLANE STRUCTURES USING STIFFNESS MATRIX METHOD The theoretical foundation for matrix (stiffness) method of structural analysis was laid and developed by many scientists: James, C. Maxwell, [1864] who introduced the method of Consistent Deformations (flexibility method). Georg, A. Maney, [1915] who developed the Slope-Deflection method (stiffness method). These classical methods are considered to be the precursors of the matrix (Flexibility and Stiffness) method, respectively. In the pre-computer era, the main disadvantage of these earlier methods was that they required direct solution of Simultaneous Equations (formidable task by hand calculations in cases more than a few unknowns). The invention of computers in the late-1940s revolutionized structural analysis. As computers could solve large systems of Simultaneous Equations, the analysis methods yielding solutions in that form were no longer at a disadvantage, but in fact were preferred, because Simultaneous Equations could be expressed in matrix form and conveniently programmed for solution on computers. Levy, S., [1947] is generally considered to have been the first to introduce the flexibility method, by generalizing the classical method of consistent deformations. Falkenheimer, H., Langefors, B., and Denke, P. H., [1950], many subsequent researches extended the flexibility method and expressed in matrix form are: Livesley, R. K., [1954], is generally considered to have been the first to introduce the stiffness matrix in 1954, by generalizing the classical method of slop-deflections. Argyris, J. H., and Kelsey, S., [1954], the two subsequent researches presented a formulation for stiffness matrices based on Energy Principles. Turner, M. T., Clough, R. W., and Martin, H. C., [1956], derived stiffness matrices for truss members and frame members using the finite element approach, and introduced the now popular Direct Stiffness Method for generating the structure stiffness matrix. Livesley, R. K., [1956], presented the Nonlinear Formulation of the stiffness method for stability analysis of frames. Since the mid-1950s, the development of Stiffness Method has been continued at a tremendous pace, with research efforts in the recent years directed mainly toward formulating procedures for Dynamic and Nonlinear analysis of structures, and developing efficient Computational Techniques (load incremental procedures and Modified Newton-Raphson for solving nonlinear Equations) for analyzing large structures and large displacements. Among those researchers are: S. S. Archer, C. Birnstiel, R. H. Gallagher, J. Padlog, J. S. przemieniecki, C. K. Wang, and E. L. Wilson and many others. LIVESLEY, R. K. [1964] described the application of the Newton- Raphson procedure to nonlinear structures. His analysis is general and no equations are presented for framed structures. However, he did illustrate the analysis of a guyed tower.

  • 10. 10 10 Analysis and Design of RECTANGULAR SEWERAGE TANK 3.1. ANALYSIS METHOD USING STIFFNESS MATRIX Stiffness Matrix method is one of the most efficient means for solving a in-plane Elastic Structures (frames and girders) type of problem based on following steps. It is easy to account for Boundary Conditions, and self weight (Girder). It is more versatile (multi-purposes) than the Finite Difference method, which requires a different equation formulation for ends and the boundary conditions, and great difficulty is had if the Beam elements are of different lengths. Only the basic elements of the Stiffness Matrix Method will be introduce here, and the researcher is referred to KassimAli (1999) (15) or Bowles (1974) if more background is required. This method was interpolated to computer program which is given in appendix A. The program algorithm is explained in details in chapter four and it conveniently coded for the user. Also the same program was used to obtain the results of the numerical examples given in chapter four of this study. 3.1.1 GENERAL EQUATION AND THEIR SOLUTION For the Beam Element, shown in Fig.(3.1), at any node (i) (junction of two or more members) on the in-plane structure the equilibrium equation is: 𝑃𝑖 = 𝐵𝑖𝐹𝑖……………………Eq.(3.1) Which states that the external node force P is equated to the internal member forces F using bridging constants A. It should be is understand that (Pi, Fi) are used for either Forces (Shear) or Bending Moments. This equation is shorthand notation for several values of Ai, Fi summed to equal the ith nodal force. For the full set of nodes on any in-plane structure and using matrix notation where P, F are Columns Vectors and A is a Rectangular Matrix, this becomes: {𝑃𝑖} = [𝐵𝑖]{𝐹𝑖}……………………Eq.(3.2) Fig.(3.1) Beam Element, global and local forces-deformations designation.
  • 11. 11 11 Analysis and Design of RECTANGULAR SEWERAGE TANK An Equation relating internal-member deformation e at any node to the external nodal displacements is: {𝑒𝑖} = [𝐴𝑖]{𝑋𝑖}………………………..(a) Where both e and X may be rotations (in radians) or translations. From the Reciprocal Theorem in structural mechanics it can be shown that the [A] matrix is exactly the transpose of the [B] matrix, thus: {𝑒𝑖} = [𝐵]𝑇 {𝑋𝑖}……………………..(b) The internal-member forces {F} are related to the internal-member displacements {e} as: {𝐹𝑖} = [𝑘]{𝑒𝑖}…………………………(c) These three equations are the fundamental equations in the Stiffness Matrix Method of analysis: Substituting (b) into (c), {𝐹𝑖} = [𝑘]{𝑒𝑖} = [𝑘][𝐵]𝑇 𝑋…………………………(d) Substituting (d) into (a), {𝑃𝑖} = [𝐵]{𝐹𝑖} = [𝐵][𝑘][𝐵]𝑇 𝑋…………………………(e) Note the order of terms used in developing Eqs. (d) and (e}. Now the only unknowns in this system of equations are the X’s: so the BKBT is inverted to obtain {𝑋𝑖} = ([𝐵][𝑘] [𝐵]𝑇 )−1 {𝑃𝑖}…………………………(f) And with the X’s values we can back-substitute into Eq. (d) to obtain the internal-member forces which are necessary for design. This method gives two important pieces of information: (1) design data and (2) deformation data. The BKBT matrix above is often called Overall assembly Matrix, since it represents the system of equations for each P or X nodal entry. It is convenient to build it from one finite element of the structure at a time and use superposition to build the global BKBT from the Local element EBKBT . This is easily accomplished, since every entry in both the Global and Local BKBT with a unique set of subscripts is placed into that subscript location in the BKBT; i.e., for i = 2, j = 5 all (2, 5) subscripts in EBKBT are added into the (2, 5) coordinate location of the global BKBT. 3.1.2. DEVELOPING THE ELEMENT [B] MATRIX Consider the in-plane structure, simple beam, shown in Fig.(3.2) coded with four values of P-X (note that two of these P-X values will be common to the next element) and the forces on the element Fig.(3.2). The forces on the element include two internal Bending Moments and the shear effect of the Bending Moments. The sign convention used is consistent with the developed computer program BEF.

Now at node (1), summing Moments (Fig.(3.2d)) 𝑃1 = 𝐹1 + 0. 𝐹2 Similarly, summing forces and noting that the soil reaction (spring) forces are Global and will be considered separately, we have: 𝑃2 = 𝐹1 𝐿 + 𝐹2 𝐿 𝑃3 = 0. 𝐹1 + 𝐹2 And 𝑃4 = − 𝐹1 𝐿 − 𝐹2 𝐿 Placing into conventional matrix form, the Element Transformation Matrix [EB] in local coordinate is: Force-Displacement relationships (P-X indexing) P1 P2 (a) Local force-displacement relationships (F-e indexing) FEM FEM

DEVELOPING THE [k] MATRIX Referring to Fig.(3.3) and using conjugate-beam (Moment Area Method)principle, the end slopes e1, and e2 are: 𝑒1 = 𝐹1𝐿 3𝐸𝐼 − 𝐹2𝐿 6𝐸𝐼 ………………………(g) 𝑒2 = − 𝐹1𝐿 6𝐸𝐼 + 𝐹2𝐿 3𝐸𝐼 …………………….(h) Fig.(3.3) conjugate-beam method Moments and rotations of beam element. Solving Eqs.(g) and (h) for F, obtaining: 𝐹1 = 4𝐸𝐼 𝐿 𝑒1 + 2𝐸𝐼 𝐿 𝑒2 𝐹2 = 2𝐸𝐼 𝐿 𝑒1 + 4𝐸𝐼 𝐿 𝑒2 Placing into matrix form, the Element Stiffness Matrix [ES] in local coordinate is: Ek = e1 e2 F1 4𝐸𝐼 𝐿 2𝐸𝐼 𝐿 F2 2𝐸𝐼 𝐿 4𝐸𝐼 𝐿
  • 14. 14 14 Analysis and Design of RECTANGULAR SEWERAGE TANK 3.1.4. DEVELOPING THE ELEMENT [kBT ] AND [BKBT ] MATRICES The EkBT matrix is formed by multiplying the [Ek] and the transpose of the [EB] matrix (in the computer program this is done in place by proper use of subscripting) AT goes always with e and X. The EBkBT will be also obtained in a similar. Multiplying [Ek] and [EBT ] matrices and rearrange them, yields: EkBT = 1 2 3 4 1 4𝐸𝐼 𝐿 6𝐸𝐼 𝐿2 2𝐸𝐼 𝐿 − 6𝐸𝐼 𝐿2 2 2𝐸𝐼 𝐿 6𝐸𝐼 𝐿2 4𝐸𝐼 𝐿 − 6𝐸𝐼 𝐿2 Multiplying [EB] and [EkBT ] matrices and rearrange them, yields: EBkBT = X1 X2 X3 X4 P1 4𝐸𝐼 𝐿 6𝐸𝐼 𝐿2 2𝐸𝐼 𝐿 − 6𝐸𝐼 𝐿2 P2 6𝐸𝐼 𝐿2 12𝐸𝐼 𝐿3 6𝐸𝐼 𝐿2 − 12𝐸𝐼 𝐿3 P3 4𝐸𝐼 𝐿 6𝐸𝐼 𝐿2 4𝐸𝐼 𝐿2 − 6𝐸𝐼 𝐿2 P4 − 6𝐸𝐼 𝐿2 − 12𝐸𝐼 𝐿3 − 6𝐸𝐼 𝐿2 12𝐸𝐼 𝐿3 From Fig.(3.4), summing of the vertical forces on a node 1 will produce: 𝑃2 − 𝐹1 + 𝐹2 𝐿 = 0.0 Since (F1+F2)/L is already included in the Global BkBT , we could rewrite above equation to: 𝑃2 = 𝐵𝑘𝐵2𝑋2 𝑇 𝑋2 = [𝐵𝑘𝐵2𝑋2 𝑇 ]𝑋2 A check on the correct formation of the EBkBT and the global BkBT is that it is always symmetrical and there cannot be a zero on the diagonal.

DEVELOPING THE P MATRICES The P matrix (a column vector) consists in zeroing the array and then inputting those node loads that are nonzero. The usual design problem may involve several different loading cases or conditions, as shown in Appendix II, so the array is of the form P(I, J) where (i) identifies the load entry with respect to the node and P-X coding and (j) the load case. It is necessary to know the sign convention of the (P-X) coding used in forming the [EA] matrix or output may be in substantial error. Therefore; the sign convention will be as follow: the joint translations are considered positive when they act in positive direction of Y-axis, and joint rotations are considered positive when they rotate in counterclockwise direction. For columns that are intermediate between two nodes, we may do one of two things: 1. Transfer the column loads to adjacent nodes prier to make problem sketch using superposition concept. 2. Transfer the column loads to adjacent nodes as if the element has Fixed-Ends Actions so the values include Fixed-End moments and shears (vertical loads).This procedure is strictly correct but the massive amount of computations is seldom worth the small improvement in computational precision. 3.1.6. BOUNDARY CONDITIONS The particular advantage of the Stiffness Matrix method is to allow boundary conditions of known displacement (translations or rotations). It is common in foundation analysis to have displacements which are known to be zero (beam on rock, beam embedded in an anchor of some type, etc.). There are two major cases of boundary conditions: a. When the displacements are restrained (zero) in any particular node then the corresponding rows and columns in the overall stiffness matrix will be eliminated (substitute by zeros). b. When the (i) displacements are known (δ) in any particular node then the opposite position in load vector [p] will have this known value (δ), and corresponding rows and columns in the overall stiffness matrix will be eliminated (substitute by zeros) except the location of (i,i) which will have unit value of (1.0).

  • 17. 17 17 Analysis and Design of RECTANGULAR SEWERAGE TANK 4.1 INTRODUCTION This chapter presents a brief description of the computer program applied in this study which governs the problem of analysis and design of space concrete water rectangular tank structure (sewage treatment plant tanks) using Finite Element Method (FEM). The program was carried using STAAD.Pro (version 22), it is consist of three major parts; first the analysis of the in-plane structure. Second part is the design of plate girder elements. Last part is the checking of RC Tanks elements according to ACI-318 and ACI-350 Design Manual using USD designing method.. 4.2 DEVELOPMENTS OF COMPUTER PROGRAM 4.2.1. First part; Analysis of space plated structure using FEM Method. At first, the computer program will develop the [EB] and [Ek] for each in-plane (beam) element from input data describing the member geometry (coordinates) and cross-section properties (modulus of elasticity, moment of inertia, area, angle of rotation…etc). Then, the program will develop element stiffness matrix [EBkBT ] for each element in global coordinate system, throughout series of matrix operations (inverse, multiplication, and addition). Later on, the program will assemble the overall stiffness matrix [BkBT ] which is also represented by [K]. Finally, a direct solution of the general stiffness equation {P}=[K]{d}, where {P} matrix containing the known externally applied loads, will yield the global displacements {X} (translations and rotations). The computer program then rebuilds the [EB] and [Ek] to obtain the [EkBT ] and computes the internal element forces (axial, shear and moments) and node reactions. The sign convention used in this program is as follow: the joint translations are considered positive when they act in positive direction of Y-axis, and joint rotations are considered positive when they rotate in counterclockwise direction. It should be noticed that all above steps should be carried out with proper indices that identifies the (P-X) coding so that the entries are correctly inserted into their right position of matrix. Let the number of nodes NN and since DOF is three for each node. Each element stiffness element [EBkBT ] has (6x6) size but the overall assembled stiffness matrix [BkBT ] or [K] has (NPxNP) size because of the assembling process, where NP = NN * 3, therefore; {𝑃𝑁𝑃} = [𝐵𝑘𝐵𝑁𝑃 × 𝑁𝑃 𝑇 ]{𝑋𝑁𝑃} This indicates that the System of Equations is just sufficient, which yields a square coefficient matrix [NPxNP], the only type which can be inverted. It also gives a quick estimate of computer needs, as the matrix is always the size of (NP x NP) the number of {P}. With proper coding, as shown in Fig.(3.4). The global [BkBT ] is banded with all zeros except for a diagonal strip of nonzero entries that is twelve values wide. These twelve nonzero entries, six are identical (the band is symmetrical). There are matrix reduction routines to solve these type half-band width problems. As a consequence the actual matrix required (with a band reduction method) is only (NP x 6) entries instead of (NP x NP). It may be convenient to store the [EkBT ] on a separate array when the [BkBT ] is being built and recall it to compute the internal element forces of the {F} matrix.

Lateral earth pressure has direct effects on walled panels. 3. Wall stresses is directly related to applied hydrostatic loading varying. 4. Conner represent major concentration of stresses and need special kind of reinforcement to prevent cracking. 5. Tank open roofed in structurally weak and lead to lateral deflections and need to be reinforced. 6. Deep tanks should be supported on steady pilled foundation to prevent differential settlements. 7. Interior buffer walls should be used to prevent lateral shock wave. 8. Special expansion joints should utilized 9. Special lining layers should applied to prevent concrete deteriorations.

Liquid-soil-structure interaction could be analyzed furtherly. 2. walls reduced section could be also studied to study cracks effects and ageing. 3. Seismic analysis could be applied based to specific zone conditions 4. Wall counterforts should be added and study their effects. 5. Vibrations of moving parts could be added to study their structural effects. 6. Soil removal from tanks sides should be investigated. 7. Tapered wall section could be implemented 8. Post-tensioned technique for MAT foundation could be utilized 9. Double walled tanks could be studied for hazard materials contaminate procedures
