Abstract Any design of Water Tanks is subjected to Dead Load + Live Load and Wind Load or Seismic Load as per IS codes of Practices. Most of the times tanks are designed for Wind Forces and not even checked for Earthquake Load assuming that the tanks will be safe under seismic forces once designed for wind forces. In this study Wind Forces and Seismic Forces acting on an Intze Type Water tank for Indian conditions are studied. The effect of wind on the elevated structures is of prime importance as Wind flows relative to the surface of ground and generates loads on the structures standing on ground. Most of the designers consider the wind effect and neglect the seismic effect on the structure. The Indian Standard Code IS 875(Part-3) 2003 and IS 1893-2000 for Wind & Seismic effect is used in this study. The Elevated Structure is designed for various Wind forces i.e. 39 m/s, 44 m/s, 47 m/s & 50 m/s and the same is cross checked with different Seismic Zones i.e. Zone-II, Zone-III, Zone-IV, & Zone-V by ‘Response Spectrum Method’ and the maximum governing condition from both the forces is further used for design & analysis of staging. It is found from the analysis that the Total load, Total moments and Reinforcement in staging i.e. Columns, Braces & also for Raft foundation varies for Case-1, Case-2, Case-3 & Case-4. Key Words: Wind Load, Seismic Load, Intze Tank, and I.S.Codes etc…

Reinforced concrete overhead water tanks are used to store and supply safe drinking water. Design and cost estimation of overhead water tanks is a time consuming task, which requires a great deal of expertise. This study therefore examines the efficiency of Rectangular and Circular tanks. Tanks of 30m3, 90m3, 140m3 and 170m3 capacities were used in order to draw reasonable inferences on tank‟s shape design effectiveness, relative cost implications of tank types and structural capacities. Limit state design criteria were used for basic tank‟s construction materials- steel reinforcement, concrete and formwork were taken-off from the prepared structural drawings. Results of the material take-offs showed that, for each of the shapes, the amount of each structural materials increase as the tank capacity increases. Also Circular-shaped tank consumed lesser individual material as compared to Rectangular ones. Hence, this will give Circular-shaped tanks a more favoured selection over the rectangular shaped tanks.

Comparative Study on Dynamic Analysis of Elevated Water Tank Frame Staging an...IOSRJMCE
This paper presents comparative study of elevated water tanks subjected to dynamic loading supported on RC framed structure and concrete shaft structure with different capacities and placed in different seismic zones. History of earthquake reveals that it have caused numerous losses to the life of people in its active time, and also post earthquake time have let people suffer due to damages caused to the public utility services. Either in urban or rural areas elevated water tanks forms integral part of water supply scheme, so its functionality pre and post earthquake remains equally important. These events showed that importance of supporting system is uncompromising for elevated tank as compared to any other type of tank. Damages caused are the results of unsuitable design of supporting system; wrong selection of supporting system, etc. These structures have heavy mass concentrated at the top of slender supporting system hence these structures are especially vulnerable to horizontal forces due to earthquakes. This paper presents the dynamic analysis of elevated water tanks with respect to the latest IS code published for liquid retaining structures by Bureau of Indian Standards i.e. IS 1893 (Part 2) : 2014. Comparison of elevated tanks with different supporting system, capacities and seismic zones states that these parameters may considerably change the seismic behaviour of tanks.

As known from very upsetting experiences, poorly designed elevated water tanks were heavily damaged or
collapsed during earthquakes. This might be due to the lack of knowledge regarding the behaviour of supporting
system of the tank, and also due to improper selection of geometry of staging patterns. For certain proportions of
the tank and the structure, the sloshing of the water during earthquake may be one of the dominant
factors.Dynamic analysis of tank containing liquid is complex involving fluid-structure interaction.In this paper,
the seismic behavioural effect of circular elevated water tank is studied for specific capacity of tank for various
staging arrangements in plan, variation in number of periphery columns and variation in number of stages in
elevation. Two mass idealizations suggested by Gujarat State Disaster Management Authority are considered
here. Under earthquake loads; a complicated pattern of stresses is generated in the tanks. Total 36 combinations
were analysedwith SAP2000 using Response Spectrum Method (RSM) and results are presented. It is observed
that increase in number of columns, does not assure the increase in the improvement of structural responses.
Radial arrangement with six staging levels is found to be best for the number of columns used. To suggest
number of columns with suitable diameter cost optimization is done for the radial staging arrangement with six
staging levels consideringcritical direction of seismic force, quantity of concrete and steel required. It is found
that eight numbers of columns gives less cost as compared to six, ten and twelve with optimized diameter of
300mm.

Abstract Buildings are essential in all populated cities. To increase value in certain buildings there are associated risks that we take like providing swimming pool at each floor level. Water carrying structures are more important that must remain functional following disasters such as earthquake. Most of the failures of structures after earthquakes are suspected to have resulted from the dynamic buckling caused by overturning moments of seismically induced liquid inertia and surface slosh waves. This paper investigates the hydrostatic and the hydrodynamic behavior of water in the swimming pool when subjected to earthquake forces. The main object of this paper is 1). To compare the static and dynamic analysis of the building. 2) The study of hydrodynamic effects.

Structural Behaviors of Reinforced Concrete Dome with Shell System under Vari...ijtsrd
There are many different systems constructing dome structure. Among them, the shell system is the most popular in reinforcement concrete structure in these days. Therefore, it is necessary to know the structural behaviours of it. The objectives of this journal is to study the structural behaviours of the reinforced concrete dome structure with shell system under gravity loading and lateral loading in cyclone wind categories and various seismic zones. Seismic loads are considered from zone 1 to zone 4 based on UBC 1997 .Wind loads are considered from I to V category as cyclone categories. Structural elements of RC dome structure are designed according to Building Code of American Concrete Institute ACI 318 99 . With these member forces obtained from the SAP 2000 analysis, the design for all structural members will be performed according to ACI 318 99. The members of dome structure are designed as an intermediate moment resisting frame. The design of the shell beams is verified by using hand calculations with the output forces under the gravity loading and lateral loading obtained from the SAP2000 analysis. Equivalent static analysis procedure is used in this study. Based on the comparison of analysis results, it can be observed where the maximum deflection occurs along the meridian direction under seismic and wind loading conditions. Then, the axial force of dome structure is significant than any other forces in shell system. From the study of analysis results of both systems, it has been noticed that the bottom ring in shell system is essential to control the forces from the shell area.

Material management in construction – a case studyeSAT Journals
Abstract
The objective of the present study is to understand about all the problems occurring in the company because of improper application
of material management. In construction project operation, often there is a project cost variance in terms of the material, equipments,
manpower, subcontractor, overhead cost, and general condition. Material is the main component in construction projects. Therefore,
if the material management is not properly managed it will create a project cost variance. Project cost can be controlled by taking
corrective actions towards the cost variance. Therefore a methodology is used to diagnose and evaluate the procurement process
involved in material management and launch a continuous improvement was developed and applied. A thorough study was carried
out along with study of cases, surveys and interviews to professionals involved in this area. As a result, a methodology for diagnosis
and improvement was proposed and tested in selected projects. The results obtained show that the main problem of procurement is
related to schedule delays and lack of specified quality for the project. To prevent this situation it is often necessary to dedicate
important resources like money, personnel, time, etc. To monitor and control the process. A great potential for improvement was
detected if state of the art technologies such as, electronic mail, electronic data interchange (EDI), and analysis were applied to the
procurement process. These helped to eliminate the root causes for many types of problems that were detected.

Life cycle cost analysis of overlay for an urban road in bangaloreeSAT Journals
Abstract
Pavements are subjected to severe condition of stresses and weathering effects from the day they are constructed and opened to traffic
mainly due to its fatigue behavior and environmental effects. Therefore, pavement rehabilitation is one of the most important
components of entire road systems. This paper highlights the design of concrete pavement with added mono fibers like polypropylene,
steel and hybrid fibres for a widened portion of existing concrete pavement and various overlay alternatives for an existing
bituminous pavement in an urban road in Bangalore. Along with this, Life cycle cost analyses at these sections are done by Net
Present Value (NPV) method to identify the most feasible option. The results show that though the initial cost of construction of
concrete overlay is high, over a period of time it prove to be better than the bituminous overlay considering the whole life cycle cost.
The economic analysis also indicates that, out of the three fibre options, hybrid reinforced concrete would be economical without
compromising the performance of the pavement.

Abstract
Soil stabilization has proven to be one of the oldest techniques to improve the soil properties. Literature review conducted revealed
that uses of natural inorganic stabilizers are found to be one of the best options for soil stabilization. In this regard an attempt has
been made to evaluate the influence of RBI-81 stabilizer on properties of black cotton soil through laboratory investigations. Black
cotton soil with varying percentages of RBI-81 viz., 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, and 2.5 percent were studied for moisture density relationships
and strength behaviour of soils. Also the effect of curing period was evaluated as literature review clearly emphasized the strength
gain of soils stabilized with RBI-81 over a period of time. The results obtained shows that the unconfined compressive strength of
specimens treated with RBI-81 increased approximately by 250% for a curing period of 28 days as compared to virgin soil. Further
the CBR value improved approximately by 400%. The studies indicated an increasing trend for soil strength behaviour with
increasing percentage of RBI-81 suggesting its potential applications in soil stabilization.
Influence of reinforcement on the behavior of hollow concrete block masonry p...eSAT Journals
Abstract
Reinforced masonry was developed to exploit the strength potential of masonry and to solve its lack of tensile strength. Experimental
and analytical studies have been carried out to investigate the effect of reinforcement on the behavior of hollow concrete block
masonry prisms under compression and to predict ultimate failure compressive strength. In the numerical program, three dimensional
non-linear finite elements (FE) model based on the micro-modeling approach is developed for both unreinforced and reinforced
masonry prisms using ANSYS (14.5). The proposed FE model uses multi-linear stress-strain relationships to model the non-linear
behavior of hollow concrete block, mortar, and grout. Willam-Warnke’s five parameter failure theory has been adopted to model the
failure of masonry materials. The comparison of the numerical and experimental results indicates that the FE models can successfully
capture the highly nonlinear behavior of the physical specimens and accurately predict their strength and failure mechanisms.

Influence of compaction energy on soil stabilized with chemical stabilizereSAT Journals
Abstract
Increase in traffic along with heavier magnitude of wheel loads cause rapid deterioration in pavements. There is a need to improve
density, strength of soil subgrade and other pavement layers. In this study an attempt is made to improve the properties of locally
available loamy soil using twin approaches viz., i) increasing the compaction of soil and ii) treating the soil with chemical stabilizer.
Laboratory studies are carried out on both untreated and treated soil samples compacted by different compaction efforts. Studies
show that increase in compaction effort results in increase in density of soil. However in soil treated with chemical stabilizer, rate of
increase in density is not significant. The soil treated with chemical stabilizer exhibits improvement in both strength and performance
properties.

Geographical information system (gis) for water resources managementeSAT Journals
Abstract
Water resources projects are inherited with overlapping and at times conflicting objectives. These projects are often of varied sizes
ranging from major projects with command areas of millions of hectares to very small projects implemented at the local level. Thus,
in all these projects there is seldom proper coordination which is essential for ensuring collective sustainability.
Integrated watershed development and management is the accepted answer but in turn requires a comprehensive framework that can
enable planning process involving all the stakeholders at different levels and scales is compulsory. Such a unified hydrological
framework is essential to evaluate the cause and effect of all the proposed actions within the drainage basins.
The present paper describes a hydrological framework developed in the form of a Hydrologic Information System (HIS) which is
intended to meet the specific information needs of the various line departments of a typical State connected with water related aspects.
The HIS consist of a hydrologic information database coupled with tools for collating primary and secondary data and tools for
analyzing and visualizing the data and information. The HIS also incorporates hydrological model base for indirect assessment of
various entities of water balance in space and time. The framework would be maintained and updated to reflect fully the most
accurate ground truth data and the infrastructure requirements for planning and management.

ultimate load capacity and axial shortening , under Cyclic loading. Steel tubes are compared for different lengths, cross sections and
thickness. Specimens were tested separately after adopting Taguchi’s L9 (Latin Squares) Orthogonal array in order to save the initial
experimental cost on number of specimens and experimental duration. Analysis was carried out using ANN (Artificial Neural
Network) technique with the assistance of Mini Tab- a statistical soft tool. Comparison for predicted, experimental & ANN output is
obtained from linear regression plots. From this research study, it can be concluded that *Cross sectional area of steel tube has most
significant effect on ultimate load carrying capacity, *as length of steel tube increased- load carrying capacity decreased & *ANN
modeling predicted acceptable results. Thus ANN tool can be utilized for predicting ultimate load carrying capacity for composite
columns.

Evaluation of punching shear in flat slabseSAT Journals
Abstract
Flat-slab construction has been widely used in construction today because of many advantages that it offers. The basic philosophy in
the design of flat slab is to consider only gravity forces; this method ignores the effect of punching shear due to unbalanced moments
at the slab column junction which is critical. An attempt has been made to generate generalized design sheets which accounts both
punching shear due to gravity loads and unbalanced moments for cases (a) interior column; (b) edge column (bending perpendicular
to shorter edge); (c) edge column (bending parallel to shorter edge); (d) corner column. These design sheets are prepared as per
codal provisions of IS 456-2000. These design sheets will be helpful in calculating the shear reinforcement to be provided at the
critical section which is ignored in many design offices. Apart from its usefulness in evaluating punching shear and the necessary
shear reinforcement, the design sheets developed will enable the designer to fix the depth of flat slab during the initial phase of the
design.
Keywords: Flat slabs, punching shear, unbalanced moment.

Estimation of surface runoff in nallur amanikere watershed using scs cn methodeSAT Journals
Abstract
The development of watershed aims at productive utilization of all the available natural resources in the entire area extending from
ridge line to stream outlet. The per capita availability of land for cultivation has been decreasing over the years. Therefore, water and
the related land resources must be developed, utilized and managed in an integrated and comprehensive manner. Remote sensing and
GIS techniques are being increasingly used for planning, management and development of natural resources. The study area, Nallur
Amanikere watershed geographically lies between 110 38’ and 110 52’ N latitude and 760 30’ and 760 50’ E longitude with an area of
415.68 Sq. km. The thematic layers such as land use/land cover and soil maps were derived from remotely sensed data and overlayed
through ArcGIS software to assign the curve number on polygon wise. The daily rainfall data of six rain gauge stations in and around
the watershed (2001-2011) was used to estimate the daily runoff from the watershed using Soil Conservation Service - Curve Number
(SCS-CN) method. The runoff estimated from the SCS-CN model was then used to know the variation of runoff potential with different
land use/land cover and with different soil conditions.
Keywords: Watershed, Nallur watershed, Surface runoff, Rainfall-Runoff, SCS-CN, Remote Sensing, GIS.

Effect of variation of plastic hinge length on the results of non linear anal...eSAT Journals
Abstract The nonlinear Static procedure also well known as pushover analysis is method where in monotonically increasing loads are applied to the structure till the structure is unable to resist any further load. It is a popular tool for seismic performance evaluation of existing and new structures. In literature lot of research has been carried out on conventional pushover analysis and after knowing deficiency efforts have been made to improve it. But actual test results to verify the analytically obtained pushover results are rarely available. It has been found that some amount of variation is always expected to exist in seismic demand prediction of pushover analysis. Initial study is carried out by considering user defined hinge properties and default hinge length. Attempt is being made to assess the variation of pushover analysis results by considering user defined hinge properties and various hinge length formulations available in literature and results compared with experimentally obtained results based on test carried out on a G+2 storied RCC framed structure. For the present study two geometric models viz bare frame and rigid frame model is considered and it is found that the results of pushover analysis are very sensitive to geometric model and hinge length adopted.

Effect of use of recycled materials on indirect tensile strength of asphalt c...eSAT Journals
Abstract
Depletion of natural resources and aggregate quarries for the road construction is a serious problem to procure materials. Hence
recycling or reuse of material is beneficial. On emphasizing development in sustainable construction in the present era, recycling of
asphalt pavements is one of the effective and proven rehabilitation processes. For the laboratory investigations reclaimed asphalt
pavement (RAP) from NH-4 and crumb rubber modified binder (CRMB-55) was used. Foundry waste was used as a replacement to
conventional filler. Laboratory tests were conducted on asphalt concrete mixes with 30, 40, 50, and 60 percent replacement with RAP.
These test results were compared with conventional mixes and asphalt concrete mixes with complete binder extracted RAP
aggregates. Mix design was carried out by Marshall Method. The Marshall Tests indicated highest stability values for asphalt
concrete (AC) mixes with 60% RAP. The optimum binder content (OBC) decreased with increased in RAP in AC mixes. The Indirect
Tensile Strength (ITS) for AC mixes with RAP also was found to be higher when compared to conventional AC mixes at 300C.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.

It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.

Abstract
Any design of Water Tanks is subjected to Dead Load + Live Load and Wind Load or Seismic Load as per IS codes of Practices.
Most of the times tanks are designed for Wind Forces and not even checked for Earthquake Load assuming that the tanks will be
safe under seismic forces once designed for wind forces. In this study Wind Forces and Seismic Forces acting on an Intze Type
Water tank for Indian conditions are studied. The effect of wind on the elevated structures is of prime importance as Wind flows
relative to the surface of ground and generates loads on the structures standing on ground. Most of the designers consider the
wind effect and neglect the seismic effect on the structure. The Indian Standard Code IS 875(Part-3) 2003 and IS 1893-2000 for
Wind & Seismic effect is used in this study. The Elevated Structure is designed for various Wind forces i.e. 39 m/s, 44 m/s, 47 m/s
& 50 m/s and the same is cross checked with different Seismic Zones i.e. Zone-II, Zone-III, Zone-IV, & Zone-V by ‘Response
Spectrum Method’ and the maximum governing condition from both the forces is further used for design & analysis of staging. It
is found from the analysis that the Total load, Total moments and Reinforcement in staging i.e. Columns, Braces & also for Raft
foundation varies for Case-1, Case-2, Case-3 & Case-4.
Key Words: Wind Load, Seismic Load, Intze Tank, and I.S.Codes etc…

1. INTRODUCTION
Water is life line for every kind of creature in this world. All
around the world liquid storage tanks are used extensively
by municipalities and industries for water supply,
firefighting systems, inflammable liquids and other
chemicals. Thus Water tanks plays a vital role for public
utility as well as industrial structure having basic purpose to
secure constant water supply from longer distance with
sufficient static head to the desired location under the effect
of gravitational force. With the rapid increase of human
population, demand for drinking water has increased by
many folds. Also due to shortage of electricity at many
places in India and around the developing nations, it is not
possible to supply water through pumps at peak hours. In
such situations elevated water tanks become an important
part of life. India is highly vulnerable to natural disasters
like earthquake, draughts, floods, cyclones etc. Majority of
Indian states and union territories are prone to one or
multiple disasters. These natural calamities are causing
many causalities and huge property loss every year.
According to seismic code IS 1893(Part-1):2000, more than
60% of India is prone to earthquakes.
The main reason for life loss is collapse of structures It is
said that natural calamities itself never kills people; it is
badly constructed structure that kill. Hence it is important to
analyze the structure properly for different natural calamities
like earthquake, cyclones, floods and typhoons etc.
1.1 Wind Effect
Wind pressures acting at any height on a structure are
computed by the methods recommended by the IS code. The
basic wind speed (Vb) for any site shall be obtained from
the basic wind map shown in IS 875 (Part-3) 2003 and shall
be modified to include the following effects to get design
wind velocity at any height (Vz) for the chosen structure:
[1]. Risk Coefficient (k₁ factor)
[2]. Terrain roughness, height and size of structure (k₂
factor); and
[3]. Local Topography (k₃ factor)
Design wind speed (Vz) at any height can be calculated as
follows: Vz = Vb k₁ k₂ k₃
Where, Vz = Design wind speed at any height „z‟ in m/s
Vb = Basic wind speed for any site
k₁ = Probability factor (Risk coefficient)
k₂ = Terrain, height and structure size factor and
k₃ = Topography factor
k₁, k₂ & k₃ are calculated by means of tables in IS 875
(Part-3) 2003.The design wind pressure at any height above
mean ground level shall be obtained by the following
relationship between wind pressure and wind velocity:
Pz = 0.6 Vz²
Where, Pz = Design Wind pressure in N/m² at height z,
Vz = Design wind velocity in m/s height z.

1.2 Earthquake Effect
For the purpose of this analysis, elevated tanks shall be
regarded as systems with a single degree of freedom
with their mass concentrated at their centers of gravity.
By treating the tank as a single degree of freedom
system, the free period T, in seconds, of such structures
shall be calculated from the following formula: Free
Period,
T = 2 π Where,
= the static horizontal deflection at the top of the
tank under a static horizontal force equal to a weight
„W‟ acting at the center of gravity of tank.
g = acceleration due to gravity.
The design shall be worked out both when the tank is
full and when the tank is empty, the weight W used in
the design shall consist of the dead load of the tank and
one-third the weight of the staging. When full, the
weight of concrete is to be added to the weight under
empty condition.
The lateral force shall be taken equal to:
Horizontal Load (P) = αh.W
Where, weight W is calculated as below:
αh = design horizontal seismic coefficient
αh = Where,
= seismic zone factor = a
coefficient depending upon the soil-foundation system
I = a factor dependent upon the importance of the
structure
= the average acceleration coefficient which
correspond to the fundamental time period of the tank.
For tank empty: W = Wt. of container + 1/3 Wt. of
staging For tank full: W = Wt. of container + wt. of
water + 1/3 Wt. of staging
The lateral seismic force P calculated is to be applied
at center of gravity of the tank horizontally in the plane
in which the structure is assumed to oscillate for the
purpose of carrying out the lateral load analysis.
2. LITERATURE REVIEW
Various literatures has presented in the form of technical
papers till date on the Wind and Seismic analysis of
Elevated Water Tanks. Various issues and the points are
covered in that analysis.i.e wind speed of various cities as
per seismic zones, hydrodynamic pressure, and dynamic
response of framed staging etc. Some of those are discussed
below:
Khaza Mohiddin Shaikh and Prof. Vasugi K (2014)
conclude that: Analysis & Design of elevated water
tanks against earthquake effect is of considerable
importance. These structures must remain functional
even after an earthquake. Most elevated water tank are
never completely filled with water. Hence, a two- mass
idealization of the tank is more appropriate as
compared to one-mass idealization.
R.K.Prasad and Akshaya B. Kamdi (2012): BIS has
brought out the revised version of IS 3370 (part-1 & 2)
after a long time from its 1965 version in year 2009.
This revised code is mainly drafted for the liquid
storage tank. This paper gives in brief, the theory
behind the design of circular water tank using WSM
and LSM. Design of water tank by LSM is most
economical as the quantity of material required is less
as compared to WSM. Water tank is the most
important container to store water therefore, Crack
width calculation of water tank is also necessary.
Hasan Jasim Mohammed (2011), conclude that: An
application of optimization method to the structural
design of concrete rectangular and circular water tanks,
considering the total cost of the tank as an objective
function with the properties of the tank that are tank
capacity, width and length of tank in rectangular, water
depth in circular, unit weight of water and tank floor
slab thickness, as design variables.
Pavan S. Ekbote and Dr. Jagdish G. Kori: During
earthquake elevated water tanks were heavily damages
or collapsed. This was might be due to the lack of
knowledge regarding the behavior of supporting
system of the water tanks again dynamic action and
also due to improper geometrical selection of staging
patterns of tank. Due to the fluid structure interactions,
the seismic behavior of elevated water tanks has the
characteristics of complex phenomena. The main aim
of this study is to understand the behavior of
supporting system (or staging) which is more effective
under different response spectrum method with SAP
2000 software. In this paper different supporting
systems such as cross and radial bracing studied.
3. PRE PROCESSING DESIGN
3.1 Concept Of Domes
A dome may be defined as a shell generated by the
revolution of a curve about a vertical axis. If the curve of
revolution about the vertical axis is a segment of a circle, the
shell formed is termed as spherical dome. Hence in spherical
dome, a vertical section through the axis of revolution in any
direction is essentially an arc of a circle. Similarly a conical
dome is obtained by the revolution of a triangle about a
vertical axis. Out of the two forms, spherical domes are
commonly used.
Fig -1: Spherical Dome

_______________________________________________________________________________________
Volume: 04 Issue: 09 | September-2015, Available @ http://www.ijret.org 293
The domes are designed for the total vertical load only. The
term total vertical load includes the weight of the dome slab
and that of covering material, if any, over the slab; the
weight of any other load suspended from the slab, and live
load etc. No separate calculations are made for wind load
and the effect of shrinkage and temperature changes because
they are complex in nature and difficult to estimate.
However, their effect is compensated by assuming extra live
load to the extent of 1000 to 1500 N/sq. m of the surfaces of
the dome. Alternatively the allowance for wind load etc. is
made, by designing the dome with reduced value of
permissible stresses.
Whatever may be the result of the design, the minimum
thickness of dome slab should not be less than 80 mm and
the minimum percentage of steel in both the directions
(Meridonial and along the latitude) should not be less 2% of
the area of concrete. In case of dome for water tanks, the
minimum percentage of steel should not be less than 0.3%.
3.2. Intze Type Water Tank Design
3.2.1 General
It is found that for storing large volumes of water an
elevated circular tank, provided with flat floor slab, works
out to an uneconomical design. It is mainly on account of
the fact that the floor slab becomes too thick for large
diameters tanks. Intze tank is best suitable under such
circumstances. An Intze tank essentially consist of a top
dome (roof), the cylindrical wall and the floor slab, which is
a combination of conical dome and bottom spherical dome.
Being subjected to direct compression the thickness of the
domical floor, works out to be much less and hence it proves
to be economical alternative to flat slab floor. The
proportion of the conical dome and the bottom dome are so
arranged that the outward thrust from the bottom domed part
of the floor balances the inward thrust due to the conical
domed part of the floor.
The diameter of the bottom dome should preferably be about
65 to 70% of the diameter of the tank. From considerations
of economy, the inclination of the conical dome should be
between 50 to 55° with the horizontal. The proportions of
different components of the tank under ideal conditions are
given in fig. (2)
Fig -2: Components of Intze Tank
3.2.2 The Top Dome And Top Ring Beam:
The dome and ring beam are assumed to be freely connected
to the cylindrical wall of the tank with the help of shear key.
We shall design the top dome and its ring beam on
membrane analysis, considering these to be independent of
the tank wall which is assumed to be free at top.
3.2.3 The Cylindrically Wall:
Let the diameter of tank be D and the height of cylindrical
portion be H. The walls are assumed to be free at top and
bottom. Due to this, tank walls will be subjected to hoop
tension only without any B.M. Maximum hoop tension will
occur at base, its magnitude being equal to W.h.d/2 per unit
height. The tank walls are adequately reinforced with
horizontal rings provided at both faces. In addition to this,
vertical reinforcement is provided on both the faces in the
form of distribution reinforcement.
3.2.4 Design Of Ring Beam At The Junction Of
The Cylindrical Wall And Conical Dome:
Find hoop tension in the beam by the formula
H = H₁ x + H₂ x
Where H₁ is the horizontal component of the thrust T, due to
w₁. w₂ being the load transmitted through the tank wall at
the top of the conical dome. The value of H₁ is given by
H₁ = w₁ tan (β)
And H₂ is the horizontal force due to water pressure at the
top of the conical dome and its value is given by
H₂ = w x h x d
Where d is the assumed depth of the beam and h is the depth
of water upto the centre of beam.
Having calculated H, the beam can be designed in a similar
manner as the top ring beam. It is desirable to keep the depth
of the beam less, so as to get more width, which may serve
as walkway or inspection gallery around the tank.
3.2.5 Design OF CONICAL DOME:
The steps to be followed in the design are:
Find the weight of water on the conical dome by taking
average diameter and the corresponding depth of
water. To this value add the self-weight of the conical
dome slab and the load (w₁) transmitted through the
tank wall at the top of the conical dome.
Divide the total load obtained above by the perimeter
of the conical dome at base, to get load per meter run
at the conical dome base.
Find Meridonial thrust in the slab due to (w₂) by the
formula T =
Find hoop tension due to water pressure and self-
weight of the conical dome slab, we know that the
water pressure will act, normal to the inclined slab
surface. Let the intensity of water pressure at a depth h
meter above conical dome base be „p‟ and let, Dh be
the diameter of the conical dome at this depth. Hoop

Volume: 04 Issue: 09 | September-2015, Available @ http://www.ijret.org 294
tension is then given by a general formula,
H = ( + q. tan β)
Where „q‟ is the weight of the conical slab per square
meter of the surface area.
With the help of the above formulae, find the value of
hoop stress at bottom, mid height and top of the
inclined conical dome slab and provide necessary hoop
reinforcement.
3.2.6 Design Of Bottom Spherical Dome:
The bottom dome is designed in the similar manner as the
top dome, except that the load of the water above the dome
is added to the self-weight of the dome slab to get design
load for the dome.
3.2.7 Design of bottom ring beam:
The steps to be followed in the design are:
Find the net horizontal force (P) on the ring beam
given by the formula,
P = T₁ x cos α ~ cos γ
If T₁ cos α > cos γ, the result will be net inward force
per meter i.e. the force will be compressive in nature.
Find hoop stress given by,
= x (compressive)
Being compressive in nature and normally very small in
magnitude, its effect can be neglected. (In a well-
proportioned tank the net horizontal force should be much
less.)
Find vertical load per meter run, given by
= T₁ cos β x T₂ sin γ
Alternatively: Vertical load per meter can also be found by
dividing the total vertical loads by the perimeter of the
bottom ring beam.
3.2.8 Design Of Staging:
Design of columns: Let W be the total vertical load
(including live loads) due to tank and its contents above the
staging. If n be the number of columns in the staging: Total
load on each column = . Add to this the vertical force Pω
due to wind to which the column will be subjected to.
When the wind blows, the windward columns on leeward
side experience downward forces. The neutral axis can be
considered a line passing through the centre of the group of
column circle and at right angles to the direction of wind.
Let, Mw = Moment due to wind about the bottom of
columns and let „r‟ be the distance from any column to the
neutral axis.
Ʃ r² = Sum of the square of the distances of all the columns
from N.A. The vertical force in any column at a distance r
from N.A. is given by the formula
Pw =
Alternatively: The maximum force in the remotest or the
extreme column can also be calculated from the following
formula
Pw =
Where, R = radius of the column circle. It is obvious that the
farthest column or the extreme column on the leeward side
will govern the design of columns. The column should be
designed for
Maximum bending moment given by the equation
B.M. = x Max. Horizontal shear x Distance between
the bracing; and
Total vertical Load = P + Pw
3.2.9 Design Of Foundations:
In order to obtain rigidity at the column base, combined
footing is generally provided for Intze tank. Depending upon
the allowable soil pressure the combined footing may either
be in the form of solid circular raft or an annular circular
raft.

6. CONCLUSIONS
Following are the conclusions based on the design and
analysis carried out in this project:
As the wind speed and seismic zone increases for the
same bearing capacity volume of concrete and quality
of steel both are increased.
We have seen that, as the wind speed increases the
wind force on staging goes on increasing for different
cases.
From chart-1, we analyzed that the wind load has been
increased by almost 15-18% in each case.
From chart-2, we come to know that the seismic load
in case-4 has been increased almost 3 times as
compared to case-1 in tank full condition. Similarly,
the seismic load in case-4 has been increased 4 times in
tank empty condition.
From chart-3, we analyzed that for different cases the
moments at face of braces, from lowest braces to top
outer braces has been increased almost 2 times in each
cases.
Similarly, from chart-4, we see that the torsional
moment has been increased almost 3 times as the wind
speed increases.
From chart-5, we analyzed that the Total load on
columns in 1st
storey goes on increasing in each case,
but the Total load on 2nd
& 3rd
storey remains almost
constant in each case.
From chart-6, we analyzed that the total moments on
column on 1st
storey goes on increasing in each cases.
As the wind speed goes on increasing the load on Raft
Foundation goes on increasing in each case by almost
2-5 % from chart-7.,
From chart-8, we analyzed that the total moments on
Raft foundation has been increased by 15 % as the
wind speed increases in each case.
As the Load and moments on foundation goes on
increasing in each case the size of Raft Foundation
goes on increasing.
In each case, as the wind speed goes on changing or
increasing the wind moment calculated manually and
analyzed from Staad Pro software differ by 4-5 %.
