Question: Problem: A proposed elevated concrete water tank is shown on the plan below. The tank serves as a water supply for a local subdivision
Problem:
A proposed elevated concrete water tank is shown on the plan below. The tank serves as a water
supply for a local subdivision and distributes it via gravity due to its elevation. The properties of the tank are as follows:
ALL. GIRDERSBEANS xm
AL
SIAD THICK
Properties of the tank:
The walls are made of thik concrete that is meters high which is carried by the girders and
beams. The maximum height of the waler on each chamber is limited by placing a pipe below the
lop that would aulomatically ist the water overflow to the next chamber. When all chambers are filled.
the waler overflows to the last outlet pipe that will then serve the subdivision. Ignore the weight of the
slab cover on top.
Parameters:
Mpa

steel ksiMpa
Density of water specific weight
Density of concrele ubic meter
QUESTIONS
Determine uniformly distributed load to be carried by the girdars along Gridline tue to DEAD
LOAD.
Determine the uniformly distributad load to be carriad by the girders along Gridline dua to LIVE
LOAD.
If the beam along gridline is considered a beam with spandrel support at its ends,
determine the negative Moment at Gridline B due to Dead Load
Using the same scenario for Question determine the negative Moment due to Live Load
