SUMMARY
1,

After being analysed of PM ratio by SAP2000, it could be concluded

that steel foundation is capable of supporting water tank

2, Ultimate deflection by concrete foundation is greater than the one by

steel foundation, meaning that the weight obtained by steel foundation
is smaller than the one by concrete foundation, hence the weight of steel
foundation is considered structurally safe.
