###
Solution, general:- There are four components of design.
(I) Design of long wall (II) Design of short wall
(III) Design of roof slab (IV) Design of base slab
The design of walls will be done under two condition.
(a) Tank full with water, with no earth fill out side.
(b) Tank empty, with full earth pressure due to saturated earth fill.
The base slab will be designed for uplift pressure and the hole tank is to be tasted against
floatation. As the L/B ratio is greater than 2 the long wall will be designed as cantilever. The bottom one metre
( >H /4) of short walls will be designed as cantilever while the top portion will designed as slab supported by
long walls .

### Design Constants:- For HYSD Bars Cocrete M = 20

sst = 150 N/mm2 wt. of concrete = 25000 N/mm2
scbc = 7 N/mm2 m = 13
m*c 13 x 7
k= = = 0.378
m*c+sst 13 x 7 + 150
j=1-k/3 = 1 - 0.378 / 3 = 0.874
R=1/2xc x j x k = 0.5 x 7 x 0.874 x 0.378 = 1.155

### Design of Long wall :-

(a) Tank empty with pressure satureted soil from outside.

Here, Ka = = = = = 0.333

Y' = 17.00 - 9.81 = 7.19 kN/m3 = 7190 N/m3
Yw = 9.81 kN/m3 = 9810 N/m3
\ Pa = 0.333 x 7190 x 3.00 + 9810 x 3.00 = 36620 N/m2

If Asth =1/2. Ast (i.e.half the bars being curtailed). H= H(1/2)'1/3 = 3.00 x( 0.5 )1/3 = 2.38 m
\ Height from the base = 3.00 - 2.38 = 0.62 m However as per code requirement,
the bars are to be continued further for distance of 12 F = 12 x 16 = 192 mm or d = 225 mm,
whichever is more, beyond this point. Hence curtail half the bars at 0.62 + 0.225 = 0.85 m from base.
Similarly, depth where only 0.25% reinforcement is requiredd is h=H(0.25)1/3= 3.00 x( 0.25 )1/3= 1.89
\ Height from the base = 3.00 - 1.89 = 1.11 m However as per code requirement,
the bars are to be continued further for distance of 12 F = 12 x 16 = 192 mm or d = 225 mm,
whichever is more, beyond this point. Hence curtail half the bars at 1.11 + 0.225 = 1.35 m from base.

Direct compression in long walls:- The earth pressure acting on short walls will cause compression
in long walls, because top portion of shorts walls act as slab supported on long walls
At h = 3.00 / 4 = 0.75 or 1.00 m above the base of walls .
Pa=KaY' (H-h) + Yw (H-h) = 0.333 x 7190 x( 3.00 - 1.00 )+ 9810 x 2.00 = 24413

pk_nandwana@yahoo.co.in
whichever is more, beyond this point. Hence curtail half the bars at 0.62 + 0.225 = 0.85 m from base.

bottom 1.00 m height. The spacing can be doubled for upper portion.
(III) Direct compression in short walls:-
Though the long walls bend as cantilever, it is observed that end 1.00 metre
width of long wall contributes to push in short walla, due to earth pressure, and its magnitude is given by
PBC = Pa x 1 = 24413 x 1 = 24413 N
This is quite small, and hence its effect has not been considered.

( C) Summary of reinforcement in short walls.
(I) Horizontal reifocement at inner face:
For lateral earth pressure, horizontal reinfocement require is 12 mm f @ 170 mm c/c in the mid span
For water pressure, horizontal reinforcement required is 12 mm f @ 100 mm c/c at the ends.
Hence provided greater one of two reinforcement.
Hence Provided 12 mm F bar, @ 100 mm c/c at inner face at, 2.00 m from top.
At top 1 m height, the pressure will be reduced to half the value ;
Hence Provided 12 mm F bar, @ 170 mm c/c at for the top 1.00 m height.
(II) Horizontal reinfocement for outer face;
For lateral earth pressure, horizontal reinfocement require is 12 mm f @ 90 mm c/c in the mid span
For water pressure, horizontal reinforcement required is 12 mm f @ 170 mm c/c at the ends.
Hence provided greater one of two reinforcement.
Hence Provided 12 mm F bar, @ 90 mm c/c at inner face at, 0.00 m from top.
At top 1 m height, the pressure will be reduced to half the value ;
Hence Provided 12 mm F bar, @ 170 mm c/c at for the top 1.00 m height.
(III) Vertical reinforcement at inner face;
provide 12 mm F bar, @ 170 mm c/c at the inner face, for bottom 1.00 m height
the spacing can be double for upper portion.
(IV) Vertical reinforcement at outer face;
provide 12 mm F bar, @ 170 mm c/c at the Outer face, for bottom 1.00 m height
the spacing can be double for upper portion.
### Design of top slab:-
L/B = 10.00 / 4.00 = 2.5 Hence top slab will be design as one way slab.
Let the live load of slab = 2000 N/m2
Assuming a thickness of 20 cm including finishing etc.
self weight = 0.20 x 1 x 1 x ### = 5000 N/m2
Total weight = 2000 + 5000 = 7000 N/m2

Hence Provided 10 mm F bar, @ 170 mm c/c the other direction.

### Design of bottom slab:- If ther is no sub-soil water nominal reinforcement would required .
However, because of saturated sub-soil, there will uplift pressure on the bottom slab, of the magnitude given by.
pu = wH1 = 9810 x 3.30 = 32373 N/m2 (assuming base slab thickness = 300 mm)
Chech against flotation.; The hole tank must be check against flotation when the tank is empty.
Total upward flotation force. = Pu = pu x B x L
Pu = 32373 x 4.00 x 10.00 = 1294920 N
Total down ward force consists of weight of tank. Base slab thickness = 300 mm
Weight of walls = 0.26 x 2.00 x( 4.00 + 10.00 )x 3.00 x ### = 546000 N
Weight of roof slab and finishing = 0.2 x 4.00 x 10.00 x ### = 200000 N
Weight of base slab = 0.3 x 4.00 x 10 x ### = 300000 N
Total weight W= 1046000 N
1294920 > 1046000 upward force is more than dpown ward force

hence provide projection in slab, beyond the face of vertical walls, by an amount x m alround, so that weight of
soil column supported by projection will provide additional down war force. It is assumed that if the tank is floted,
the earth would rupture on vrtical planes shown by dotted lines. (fig ) .Most soil would tend torupture on an
inclined planes, thus tendind to increase the effective down ward load from the earth but this might be small in
waterlogged non-cohesive ground.

Weigt of soil supported by projection:

Weight of roof slab and finishing = 0.2 x 4.00 x 10.00 x ### = 200000 N
Weight of walls = 0.26 x 2.00 x( 4.00 + 10.00 )x 3.00 x ### = 546000 N

(III) Ground water may turn saline weight more than 9810 N/m3
Total up lift force = 1.10 x 29430 x( 4.52 + 2 x)( 10.52 + 2 x)
Equating total upward force to the total down ward force, we get
