Mrw = [Ai ( Wi. Xi + Ws. Xs + Wr. Xr)]2 + [Ac (Wc. Xc)]2 = 381453029835 Nmm

= 381453029.83 Nm

7 .2.4SHEAR FORCE
The seismic base shear shall be defined as the SRSS combination of the impulsive and convective components.

V= Vi2 + Vc2 = 48,326,902.75 N

where, Vi = Ai (Ws + Wr +Wf + Wi) = 47,902,181.05 N

Vc = Ac. Wc = 6,393,010.26 N

7 .3 RESISTANCE TO OVERTURNING
7 .3.1THICKNESS OF THE BOTTOM PLATE UNDER THE SHELL & ITS RADIAL WIDTH
Bottom/Annular plate thickness , ta = 16.00 mm
Thickness of bottom shell course, ts = 28.00 mm
Bottom/Annular plate radial width, Ls = 1200.0 mm
Min. specified yield strength of bottom annulus, Fy = 241.0 N/mm2

J= = 2.17
D2 ( Wt (1 - 0.4 Av) + Wa )

where,
Av = Vertical earthquake acceleration coefficient = 0.7

wa = Resisting force of the annulus = 94.93 N/mm

snow load. ( Zero for floating roof)

The resisting force of the annulus,

wa = 99 ta Fy. H. Ge ≤ 196. H. D. Ge = 94,932.54 N/m

wa < 196.H.D.Ge = 114,016,732,704.00

Ge = Effective specific gravity including vertical seismic effect

= G. (1 - 0.4 Av) = 0.72

Since the anchorage ratio, > 1.54, the tank is not stable and cannot be self-anchored
for the design load. The tank shall be mechanically anchored.

7 .3.2ANNULAR PLATE REQUIREMENT

If the thickness of the bottom plate under the shell is thicker than the remainder
of the bottom, then the minimum radial width of the bottom plate,

Fy
L= 0.01723 ta = 1,108.57 mm
H. Ge

The maximum width of annulus for determining the resisting force, 0.035 D = 1,366.09 mm

Since L < 0.035 D, the minimum radial width should be = 1,108.57 mm

And,
Since Ls > L, the bottom/ annular plate width is satisfactory.

D2
ts = 12.67 N/mm

7 .3.4MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE SHELL COMPRESSION

GHD² ( D in m ) = 40.223 m³/mm²

A=
ts²

For GHD²/(ts²) < 44 m³/mm²,

83.ts
Fc = + 7.5{G.H}½
2.5D = 57.94 N/mm²

For GHD²/(ts²) ³ 44 m³/mm²,

83.ts = - N/mm²
Fc =
D

Therefore, Fa ( < 0.5Fty ) = 57.94 N/mm²

Since sc < Fc, therefore the tank is structurally stable.

Since SUG is III and Tc > TL , Af = 0.08

Uplift force due to seismic loading,

WAB = - wt ( 1 - 0.4 Av) + wint

where
Mrw = Overturing moment due to seismic = 381453029835 Nmm
Dc = Nominal diameter of tank = 39,031 mm
wt = Tank and roof weight acting at base of shell, = 28.24 N/mm
Av = Vertical earthquake acceleration coefficient = 0.70
wint = Uplift thrust due to internal pressure = 0 N/mm

Tensile stress,
