1 DESIGN & ANALYSIS OF RECTANGULAR RCC OVERHEAD WATER TANK

2 Data: Size of water Tank 4.0m x4.0m x2.0m Height of water tank from GL =8.0m Water tank wall thickness =180mm Size of column = 300 x 300 mm Bracing beam =300 x 350mm Concrete grade M30 Steel Fe 415 grade 1.Creation of Geometry : File New Project Select Space Unit : Length =meters; Force=KN; File Name=RCC overhead tank Next Select Open Structure Wizard Finish. Change to Frame Models from Truss models Select Bay frame and double click on it. Length X=4m No. bays =1 Height Y=10m No. of bays =3 click Bay 1=4m Bay2=4m Bay3=2m; Width Z=4m No. bays=1 Apply Transfer model Click Yes Go to Front view icon (first view) Select tank portion for surface modeling. Isometric view Select surface meshing Quadrilateral meshing OK Division=10 Apply. Do first bottom, side 1, side 2, side 3 and side 4. To remove all beam elements, Select the tank portion except bottom of tank Delete 80 beams & associated Physical beams (if any) will be deleted Ok.
