SEISMIC ANALYSIS OF SINGLE DEGREE OF FREEDOM STRUCTURE

In this study, Wind Force and Seismic forces acting on an Elevated water tank e.g. Intze Tank are studied. Seismic forces acting on the tank are also calculated changing the Seismic Response Reduction Factor(R). IS: 1893-1984/2002 for seismic design and IS: 875-1987(Part III) for wind load has been referred. Then Analyzed the Elevated Tank by using the software STAAD PRO. Reinforcement detailing is done for the Tank. Base Shear and Base Moment are calculated and compared the results for Tank Full Condition and Empty Condition and found that the Base shear in the full tank condition is high and Base moment also high in the case of tank full condition. With the increase in R value Base Shear and Base Moment decreases.
