STRUCTURAL STABILITY OF THE SUPPORTING TOWER FOR AN ELEVATED BRAITHWAITE PRESSED STEEL TANK
Abstract
This paper calculates the load of the water tank full with water and wind load and compressive force of stanchions and bracing to withstand water load and wind forces of 15meter elevated steel tank of capacity 163,656 liters (164m3) of water and computer results of the compressive forces were determined using quick basic programming and pce software. Computer results attached from the compressive force, the members were designed for suitability of the sections. The steel elevated tank has 33 modes and 70 elements with fixed supports at Nodes 1,2 and 3 with nodal loads of 277.63KN, 228.65KN and 277.44KN at Nodes 31,32 and 33 respectively with wind load of 11.58KN at node 33. The maximum compressive stress calculated was found to be 395KN at member 24 under a running time of 1.15 minutes.
