1 Design Constants:For HYSD Bars Cocrete M = 25

sst = 150 N/mm2 wt. of concrete = 25000 N/mm2

scbc = 8.5 N/mm2 m = 10.98
m*c 10.9804 x 8.5

m*c+sst 11 x 8.5 + 150
j=1-k/3 = 1 - 0.384 / 3 = 0.8721
R=1/2xc x j x k = 0.5 x 8.5 x 0.872 x 0.384 = 1.422

2 Dimention of tank:-
The depth of tank (H) = 9.00 m
The inside diameter of tank=(D) 6.25 m

3 Determination of bending moment and hoop tension:-

Thickness of wall from empirical formula = 3H+5 = 3 x 9.00 + 5 = 32 cm 320 mm

H 2
= 9.00 x 9.00
= 41 h = H/3 = 9.00 / 3 = 3.000 m
DT 6.25 x 0.32
The height above base, upto which cantilever action will be there is given by H/3 or 1 m which ever is heigher
D
Maximum ring tension at this level, per meter height = w (H-h) where w = 10000 N/m2

4 Design of setion for cantilever action:-

if d is the effective thickness of tank wall,

Ö Ö
Mf 135000 x 1000
D= = = 308.00 mm
1000 R 1000 x 1.42
\ Total thickness =d +cover = 308 + = 35
343 = say 350 mm
However, provide a minimum thickness equal to the greater of following;
(I) 150mm (II) 30H+ 50 = 30 x 9.00 + 50 = 320 Hence provide T= 350 mm
Providing 35 mm cover to the center of reinforcement, availble d = 315 mm
Mf 135000 x 1000
Area of steel for cantilever bending is given by= Ast = = = 3276 mm2
sst . J .d 150 x 0.872 x 315
3.14xdia2 3.14 x 12 x 12
using 12 mm bars A = = = 113 mm2
4 x100 4 x 100
 Spacing of hoop Bars = 1000 x 113 / 3276 = 35 say = 30 mm
Hence Provided 12 mm F bar, @ 30 mm c/c upto height of 3.00 m from base
Above this height, curtail half bars and continue the other half upto top. Let us test this for devlopment length
f .sst 12 x 150
Ld = = 563 mm say 0.56 m
4. tbd 4 x 0.8 =
Hence half bars may be curtailed at 3.00 m height above the base. These vertical bars are to be
provided inner face . Keep a clear cover of = 25 mm

5 Design of section for hoops action;

Maximum hoops tension 187500 N at 3.00 m above the base
\ area of ring, Ash = 187500 / 150 = 1250 mm2
Let us provide rings atboth faseHence of area of ring in each face= 625 mm2

4 x100 4 x 100
Spacing of hoop Bars = 1000 x 113 / 625 = 181 say = 180 mm
Hence Provided 12 mm F bar, @ 180 mm c/c upto height of 3.00 m from base
and above this, the spacing may be increased
1000 x 113
Actual , Ast = 2 x = 1256 mm2

Hoop tension at 4.50 m below top = 10000 x 4.50 x 6.25 / 2.00 = 140625 N
\ area of ring, Ash = 140625 / 150 = 938 mm 2

Let us provide rings atboth faseHence of area of ring in each face= 469 mm2

4 x100 4 x 100
Spacing of hoop Bars = 1000 x 113 / 469 = 241 say = 240 mm
Hence Provided 12 mm F bar, @ 240 mm c/c upto height of 4.50 m from base
0.3
At the top, minimum Ash = x 1000 x 350 = 1050 / 2 = 525 mm2
100
Spacing of hoop Bars = 1000 x 113 / 525 = 215 say = 210 mm c/c

6 Distribution reinforcement:-
350 - 100
Percentage area of distribution reinforcement is 0.30 - 0.10 x = 0.229 %
450 - 100
0.229
\ Ash = x 1000 x 350 = 800 area of steel in each face = 400 mm2
100

However , no additional reinforcement will be provided at inner face since the vertical steel for cantilever action
will serve this purpose. Hence provided As 400 mm2 in vertical direction at the outer face.
3.14xdia2 3.14 x 8 x 8
using 8 mm bars A = = = 50 mm2
4 x100 4 x 100
Spacing of hoop Bars = 1000 x 50 / 400 = 126 say = 100 mm
Hence Provided these 8 mm F bar, @ 100 mm c/c

7 Provision for haunches:-

It is customary to provide150 mmx150mm haunchesat the junction of wall and base.
A haunches reinforcement of 8 mm f @ 100 mm c/c may be provided.

8 Design of tank floor.:-

 Since the tank floor is resting on ground throughout , provide a minimum thickness of 150 mm
0.30
Minimum Ast = x 150 x 1000 = 450 mm2 in each direction
100
Provide half the reinfocement near each face, Ast = 225 mm2

Spacing of hoop Bars = 1000 x 50 / 225 = 223 say = 200 mm
However provide 8 mm f bars @ 200 mm c/c in both direction , at top and bottom of floor slab.
The floor slab will rest on 75 mm thick layer of lean concrete covered with a layer of tar felt.
