Rect Conc Tanks - 4

The document discusses the design and shear analysis of an open-top single-cell tank, detailing the calculations for moments and shear forces at various points. It provides specific dimensions and coefficients for the tank, along with reinforcement requirements based on allowable stresses. The analysis concludes that shear governs wall thickness, with detailed specifications for the arrangement and spacing of reinforcement bars.

They may be applied with satisfactory results to any ordinary tank wal even if vertical edges are not fully fixed. Section 4. Open-Top Single-Cell Tank The tank in Fig. 3 has a clear height of @ = 16.00 ft Horizontal inside dimensions are b = 40.00 ft. and ¢ * 20,00 ft. The top of the wals is considered free and the bottom hinged. Design tank for a fluid weighing 62.5 Ib. pet cubic foot. Coefficients for moment and shear are selected from tables or diagrams (or b/a = 40.00/16.00 = 2.50 and c/a = 20.00/16.00 = 1.25.

Moment coefficients taken from Table V for b/a = 2.50 and c/a = 1.25 are tabulated below.

The negative sign simply indicates that tension is on the inside and need not be ‘considered in subsequent calculations. Effective depth d may be selected rom Table 2 in Reyforced Concrete Design Handbook of the Americas: Concrete Institute. For fun fe = 20,000/9.2/1,350 and A = 23.6, select minimum d = 10.25 in. From Fig. 2, for b/a = 2.5, maximum shear at vertical edge & V = O.41wa? = 0.41 X 16,000 = 6,560 Ib. per linear foot, and at bottom edge, from Table VIII, ¥ = 0.420? = 0.42% 16,000 = 6,720 Ib. per linear foot.
