TD2 SeismicDesign TankWater 5GC20212022 Statement

This document describes a simplified dynamic analysis of a water tank tower subjected to seismic shaking. The tower is modeled as a single degree of freedom (SDOF) system with lumped masses at the bottom and top of a reinforced concrete column. The analysis determines the system's stiffness, natural period, maximum acceleration response, seismic force, and displacement. Bending moment, shear force, and reinforcement bar diagrams are also calculated to verify the column's design at the ultimate limit state under seismic loads.

TD2 – Water Tank Dynamic Analysis


Single Degree Of Freedom System
SIMPLIFIED ANALYSIS of TANK TOWER Motion
Under Seismic Shaking
Let’s consider an idealization model of a tank tower. It consists of one inextensional vacuum cylinder column with an
external diameter of 2,00m and a thickness of 30 cm This column is mode of reinforced concrete , the concrete class
is C25/30 ( Ecm = 31 GPa ). This tank has to resist to an horizontal earthquake excitation. For the dynamic model, we
could simplify the analysis by using a SDOF model with masses concentrated exclusively on the bottom or on the top
of the structure, and the stiffness linked exclusively to the bending of the column. So that we could consider a mass-
string system.
The earthqake motion could be described by the pseudo acceleration spectrum below.
