Design of Concrete Ring Type Foundation For Storage Tank

The document summarizes the design of a foundation for an API 650 storage tank. Key details include: 1) The tank is unanchored and seismic calculations are based on equations for unanchored tanks. 2) Calculations determine the seismic loads, overturning moment, base shear, and shell compression. 3) The ringwall design calls for a 16-inch thick concrete wall with #9 and #4 reinforcing bars. 4) Footing design includes checking soil bearing capacity and reinforcement with #9 bars.

API 650 Storage Tank March 12, 2002

Rev: 0
FOUNDATION DESIGN:

Per API 650 (Appendix E)

Tank is unanchored, use equations pertaining to unanchored tanks,


for seismic loading.

DATA GIVEN:

Seismic Zone; 3
Zone Coefficient Z= 0.3
Importance Factor I = 1.0
Diameter of Tank D= 125.3
Height of Liquid Content (Design) H= 45.43
Shell Height Hs = 46
Design Specific Gravity G= 0.9
Thickness of Bottom PL Under Shell tb = 0.5000
Yeild Strength of Bottom PL Fby = 36,000 PSI
Weight of Shell Ws = 373.4 Kips
Weight of Roof + Live Load = 107.4 + 210.4 Wy = 210.4 Kips
Weight of Product PI()/4(94.5)2 (44.5)(.79)(62.4) Wt = 31,460 Kips

CALCULATIONS:

Seismic Coefficients:

Xs = 21 Ft
C1 = 0.60
D/H = 2.76

Per Fig. E-2

W1 / Wt = 0.4 W1 = 12,584.1
W2 / Wt = 0.52 W2 = 16,359.3

Per Fig. E-3

X1 /H = 0.36 X1 = 16.4
X2 /H = 0.56 X2 = 25.4

Per Fig. E-4

K = 0.62

Lateral Force Coefficients: E-3.3

T =K (D 0.5 ) =.6 *(94.5 0.5) = 6.72 Seconds

If Greater Than 4.5 seconds 3.375 (s/T2) = 3.375*1.5/5.832 = 0.112 Seconds
