RECTANGULARTANKS DesignConsiderations
Flexure Shear Tension Deflection Cracking bendinginwallsandbase - wall-to-base, wall-to-wall junctions - horizontal tension in walls, base vertical/ horizontal deflections of wall thermal, flexural, tension cracks
Flotation
- when base is located below water table level in reality neither of these conditions may actually exist Both may need to be investigated
Base Fixity - (i) Fixed (ii) Pinned

LoadingConditions
Condition 1 Condition 2 Condition 3 -
Internal Water Pressure only (before backfilling, i.e. leakage test) External Earth Pressure only (before filling tank) Tank full and Soil backfilled (resistance provided by soil is ignored) 1

Crack width calculation is based on the following equation:
z=f s 3 d c A
Where, Z is a quantity limiting distribution of flexural reinforcement (ACI 350 limits) z 115 kips/in (crack width = 0.010 in) z 95 kips/in (crack width = 0.008 in)
