Solution, general:- There are four components of design.
(I) Design of long wall (II) Design of short wall
(III) Design of roof slab (IV) Design of base slab
The design of walls will be done under two condition.
(a) Tank full with water, with no earth fill out side.
(b) Tank empty, with full earth pressure due to saturated earth fill.
The base slab will be designed for uplift pressure and the hole tank is to be tasted against floatation.
than 2 the long wall will be designed as cantilever. The bottom one metre ( >H /4) of short walls will be designed as cantil
will designed as slab supported by long walls .

Similarly, depth where only 0.25% reinforcement is requiredd is h=H(0.25)1/3=
\ Height from the base = 3.30 - 2.08 = 1.22 m However as per code requireme
the bars are to be continued further for distance of 12 F = 12 x 20 =

This is > Than 0.25 % of Ast at bottom . Hence above curtalment is not permiss
Hence the reinforcement will be provid as under,
(I) At base : 20 mm f bars @ 170 mm c/c
(II) At 1.00 m above base , up to top : 20 mm f bars @
Direct tensio on long wall:- Since the top portion of short wall act as slab supported on long walls,
the water pressure acting on short walls will cause in long walls.

### Design of short walls :-
(a) Tank empty, with pressure of satureted soil from outside.
(I) Top Portion . The bottom 1.00 m act as cantilever, while the remaining
act as slab supported on long walls.

Hence Provided 16 mm F bar, @ 250 mm c/c at out side face, in vertical direction for
bottom 1.00 m height. The spacing can be doubled for upper portion.
(III) Direct compression in short walls:-
Though the long walls bend as cantilever, it is observed that end
width of long wall contributes to push in short walla, due to earth pressure, and its magnitude is given by
PBC = Pa x 1 = 30375 x 1 =
This is quite small, and hence its effect has not been considered.
(b) Tank full with water , and no earth fill out side.
(I) Top Portion . The bottom 1.00 m act as cantilever, while the remaining
act as slab supported on long walls.

hence provide projection in slab, beyond the face of vertical walls, by an amount x m alround, so that weight of soil column s
will provide additional down war force. It is assumed that if the tank is floted, the earth would rupture on vrtical planes shown
