Abstract

Elevated water tanks are one of the main lifeline elements and are considered as the structures of high importance. It has large mass concentrated at the top of slender supporting structure hence extremely vulnerable under lateral forces due to earthquake, their serviceability performance during and after strong earthquakes is a matter of concern. The present work aims at checking the adequacy of water tank for the seismic excitations and to understand the behavior of supporting system which is more effective under an earthquake record for seismic zone IV. Different types of staging patterns with varying heights and cross sections are analyzed by using Non Linear Dynamic Time History analysis using E-tabs 2016 software. study is extended for different staging patterns i.e. Hexagonal and cross bracing, Square and radial bracing for staging height 16m and square column.
