    7-Design of Circular Tanks

    For purpose of design, circular tanks can be divided into following categories:
    1-Tanks with sliding or flexible joint between floor and wall.
    In this case, the wall is free to move outward when internal water pressure is applied.
    Hence the wall is subjected to hoop stress (T) only.
    T=Coff.*wH*D/2 (D=Internal Tank Diameter)
    Maximum hoop stress= Coff. *w(H-h).D/2
    Maximum hoop stress occurs at (h=H/3 or h=1m) from the base (whichever is more),

    Figure (7) Sliding or flexible base


    2- Circular tank with rigid joint between floor and wall.
    Since the wall in this case is fixed with floor slab, circumferential elongation of wall is not possible at its junction
    with floor slab and hence hoop stress is (0) there and the entire liquid pressure is resisted by cantilever action.
    1-At a certain point (D) at a height (h), above base slab, full hoop stress develops and cantilever effect is (0).
    2-At midway between (D) and base slab, liquid pressure is resisted partly by hoop action and partly by cantilever
    action

    8-1-2-1-Load Equation
    According to principles of Strength of Materials, the load equation is:-

    There are four unknowns, (C1), (C2), (C3), and (C4), therefore, four boundary conditions are required.

    @ x=0, M=0, V=0
    @ x=H, θ=0, y=0

    The above differential equations are solved and presented in table forms which can be used directly to compute
    (M), (V), and (T)

    8-1-3-1-Stresses due to Shrinkage
    8-1-3-2-Stresses due to Hoop Tension (T)

    Where:
    fc= Total tensile stress in concrete.
    T= Tensile force per unit height.
    c= Shrinkage strain.
    As= Area of steel reinforcement.
    A= Gross section area.
    n= Modulus ratio= Es/Ec
    Approximate value of shrinkage strain in concrete, is c=0.0003
    Example (1)
    Find the required wall thickness for the required data:-
    c= Shrinkage strain=0.0003, Es=200x103MPa, fs=70 MPa, n=10, fc=2.5MPa (tension), T=500 N/m
    𝑐. 𝐸𝑠 + 𝑓𝑠 − 𝑛. . 𝑓𝑐
    𝑡= ∗𝑇
    𝑓𝑐 ∗ 𝑓𝑠
    0.0003𝑥200𝑥103 +70−10𝑥2.5
    𝑡= ∗ 500 = 300𝑚𝑚
    70∗2.5

    Example (2)
    Find the maximum reinforcement for the circular tank having the following data:-
    Base: fixed, H=6m, D inside=16m, γw=10kN/m3, c= Shrinkage strain=0.0003,
    Es=200x103MPa, fc=2 MPa, f'c=20 MPa, fs (hoop)=95 MPa, fs (vertical)=135 MPa, n=10
    Solution
    Assume t=250mm
