Static analysis of elevated composite water tank

The elevated water tank is most important structure to store large amount of water at a certain height to distribute the water in near locality for survive purpose and also develop pressure for distribution system. In the world maximum elevated water tank is damage due to earthquake attack. The maximum water tank was constructed in RCC, but during the earthquake RCC water tank developed the maximum base shear. To reduced the base shear of elevated water tank during earthquake, suggest new thing which was composite water tank. The RCC water tank can be replace by a Composite water tank for a same staging height and same storage capacity. The mathematical model of elevated RCC and composite water tank create in ETABS software. The objectives of this paper to study the performance of elevated composite water tank for full tank and empty tank filled conditions. The analysis of equivalent hydrostatic used draft code provision of Indian IS 1893 part-II:2002. The behavior of elevated composite water tank with regards base shear and others seismic parameters as compare with elevated RCC water tank.
