Design of Prestressed Circular Water Tank

This document provides design specifications and calculations for a prestressed circular water tank with a diameter of 100m and depth of 36m. It specifies concrete grade, permissible compression stresses, assumed prestress loss ratio, and reinforcement details. It then outlines a two-step design process to determine the ring tension and bending moment along the tank wall, calculating values of 1073.688 kNm/m and 15084kN/m, respectively, based on specified coefficients and equations from design codes.

STEP -1
Determination of ring tension and bending moment along the tank wall ( Nd & Mw) :

Mw = Coefficient x wH3
H2 / Dt
= 362/ 100 x 0.15
= 86.4
Assuming a max value of 56.0,
From IS3370 Part-4,
Coefficient = 0.0023
Mw = 0.0023 x 10 x 363
= 1073.688 kN m/m

RING TENSION
Nd = coefficient x W H R
H2 / Dt = 56.0
Coeff = 0.838
Nd = 0.838 x 10 x 36 x 50
= 15084kN/m
