Hydrodynamic Pressure
Under static condition, liquid applies pressure on
container.
This is hydrostatic pressure
During base excitation, liquid exerts additional
pressure on wall and base.
This is hydrodynamic pressure
This is in additional to the hydrostatic pressure

Modeling of liquid
Liquid in bottom portion of the container moves with
wall
This is called impulsive liquid
Liquid in top portion undergoes sloshing and moves
relative to wall
This is called convective liquid or sloshing liquid
Convective liquid
(moves relative to tank wall)
Impulsive liquid
(moves with tank wall)
© Sudhir K. Jain, IIT Kanpur E-Course on Seismic Design of Tanks/ January 2006 Lecture 1 / Slide 20
Modeling of liquid
Impulsive liquid
Moves with wall; rigidly attached
Has same acceleration as wall
Convective liquid
Also called sloshing liquid
Moves relative to wall
Has different acceleration than wall
Impulsive & convective liquid exert pressure on
wall
Nature of pressure is different

Example 5:
A circular tank with internal diameter of 8 m, stores 3 m height of
water. Assuming impulsive mass acceleration of 0.3g and
convective mass acceleration of 0.1g, find seismic forces on tank.
Solution:
Geometry of tank is same as in previous examples.
D = 8 m, h = 3m
From previous examples:
mi = 63.3 t mc = 84.5 t
hi = 1.125 m hc = 1.65 m
hi* = 3.3 m hc* = 3.0 m
Impulsive acceleration, ai = 0.3g = 0.3 x 9.81 = 2.94 m/sec2
Convective acceleration, ac = 0.1g = 0.1 x 9.81 = 0.98 m/sec2

At the end of Lecture 1
In seismic design, mechanical analogue of tanks
are used, wherein, liquid is replaced by
impulsive & convective masses
These masses and their points of application
depend on aspect ratio
Graphs and expressions are available to find all
these quantities
These are based on work of Housner (1963a)

2. table C-1 of guidelines as pointed in lecture1/slide57
3. Housner graphs to find h* are not given for rectangular tanks
Top slab will impart more stiffness to wall and make it more rigid. This is
not going to affect hydrodynamic pressure distribution. However, if
sloshing liquid touches roof slab, then hydrodynamic pressure distribution
will be affected. Please refer Lecture 6 and Commentary to Clause 4.11 of
the Guideline.
Reading the value from graph is likely to induce some approximation and
hence, expressions are also given. The difference, however, may not be
significant from engineering view point.
In petrol pumps, steel tanks used for storing petrol/diesel are usually
horizontal tanks. Railway tankers carrying petroleum products are also
horizontal tanks. Another good example is heating greasers in bathrooms,
some are of horizontal type and some are of vertical type !!. A vertical tank is
the one, in which longitudinal axis of tank is vertical. Classification as
horizontal and vertical tank is more appropriate for circular tanks only.
7) For tanks with arbitrary shapes like triangular, hexagonal shapes etc, how to
find impulsive and convective masses? Any simplified methods available
9) Why effect of base pressure is considered along with both convective mass
and impulsive mass instead of convective mass only?
In our modeling, liquid is divided into two parts, one that vibrates along with
wall (impulsive mass) and other which moves relative to wall (convective
mass). During lateral excitation, both impulsive and convective liquids exert
non-uniform pressure on base.
11) For lumping mass in mathematical model for impulsive and convective mass
which height is to be used, h or h*?
12) For load application in a mathematical model, only C.G. (h) of the impulsive/
convective force is known. How to find the area and distribution of load (or
mass) with respect to height of the tank?
chandrshekhar
The expression which you have given above contains 3D term, which is not
present in the expressions given in Lectures and in Table C-1 of the
Guideline. You are also interested in knowing how this formula is arrived at.
The derivation of this formula is given in Housner’s paper (1963a) and you
may go through the same. It comes from potential equation of liquid or
Laplace equation. Since it is a bit mathematical, we have not included this in
the course contents.
We need to recognize that we are dividing liquid in two parts. That does not
mean that physically liquid gets divided in two parts and liquid only up to
certain depth participates in convective mode and liquid below it participates
in impulsive mode. It is an idealization, and convective and impulsive
pressures are present over the entire height of liquid. This can also be
observed in the pressure distributions shown in Lecture 6.
hi* is that height where mi should act so that moment due to impulsive
pressure on wall and moment due to impulsive pressure on base is equal to
moment due to mi (actually, mi × g) . Since, effect of moment due to base
pressure is included, this height can become larger than h. On the other
hand hi, which includes effect of impulsive pressure only on the walls, is
always less than h.
3. The formulae derived for the above tanks are applicable for open tank or
closed tank ? (i.e. tank with cover slab or without cover slab)
Actually these are derived for open tanks, wherein, question of liquid
touching roof slab does not arises. However, due to presence of roof slab,
pressure distribution on wall is not going to change, provided sloshing
liquid does not touch roof slab. If it touches roof slab then some additional
issues will come up. These issues have been addressed in Lecture 6 and
in Clause 4.11 of the Guideline.
4. The formulas and graph derived to find hi, hc, mi, mc etc is applicable for RC
tank or steel tank? The formulae are irrespective of materials or the materials
proportion will change the co-efficient?
Slender tank is one in which h/D or h/L is quite high. In squat tank h/D or
h/L is less. There is no fixed limit on these values at which this
demarcation begins. Generally, these terminologies are used for impulsive
and convective masses. For example, we say that in slender tanks,
convective mass is less and in squat tanks, impulsive mass is less. In this
context, from Figure 2a of the Guideline, we can see that for h/D = 0.2,
about 80% mass contributes to convective mode and for h/D = 1.0 about
80% mass contributes to impulsive mode. Thus, one can say that a tank
with h/D less than 0.2 is squat tank and a tank with h/D greater than 1.0 is
slender tank.
6. How Question 1.2 is false in Assignment i.e.., in short tank mi is less only See
Example-1 in Lecture -1.
This was error in our solution, and we have sent addendum to it.
7. So, far we learnt about impulsive mass, convective mass and it is centeroid.
When we do the modeling in computer. How impulsive mass is distributed
i.e how applied and upto what depth?
9. Table C1-Expression for parameters of spring mass model, hi/h = 0.375 for
h/D less than or equal to 0.75 is to be given, while the actual one furnished
reads, h/d greater than 0.75
Impulsive
Let us assume mi/m =x:
If the pressure distribution is as shown in the above figure, hi should come less
than or equal to 0.5*x* h, i.e., hi/h should always be lower than 0.5x.
From above computations, it appears that the pressure distribution for impulsive
loading explained in lecture 1 appears to be incorrect.
Kindly explain.
This question arose because of the feeling that physically liquid got
divided into two parts. You are thinking that liquid below ( x ) × (h ) height is
impulsive and liquid above this height is convective. As has been
explained in the answer to earlier question, there is no physical line, which
demarcates impulsive and convective portions of liquid. Impulsive liquid is
present throughout the height; however, more liquid from bottom portion
participates in impulsive mode. Similarly, convective liquid is also
distributed along the entire height, but more liquid from upper portion
participates in convective mode. Since more liquid from bottom portion is
participating in impulsive mode, hi/h is always less than 0.5h. Similarly,
hc/h is always greater than 0.5. Please refer Figure 2b and 3b of the
Guideline.

2. As per fig C-4a of the Guidelines, the base shear coefficients from IS 1893
(Part 1):2003 is much less than that from IBC 2000 for structures with time
period less than 0.1s and greater than 1.7s. How to account for this effect
while designing a structure which falls in this time period zone?
Figure C-4a gives comparison of base shear coefficient for buildings from
IS 1893(Part 1):2002 and IBC 2000. In IBC 2000, spectrum is flat (or
horizontal) from T = 0.0 sec itself, whereas, in IS 1893, there is a rising
portion from T = 0.0 up to T = 0.1 sec.
A very stiff or rigid structure will have very low time period, which may fall
in this range. For such rigid structures, Sa/g and base shear coefficient will
be less. In such rigid structures, reduction in seismic forces on account of
ductility is not allowed. Thus, strictly speaking, use of R for these
structures is not appropriate. In order to address this issue, codes make
spectrum flat in short period range and allow the use of R values. IS
1893(Part 1) should in fact remove this rising portion. More discussion on
this aspect is available in the following document:
Proposed draft provisions and commentary on IS 1893(Part 1):2002
(www.iitk.ac.in/nicee/IITK-GSDMA/EQ05.pdf)
Please note, for tanks, this rising portion has been removed in the IITK-
GSDMA Guidelines.
For time period greater than 1.7 sec also there is difference between IBC
and IS 1893(Part 1). This is due to the fact that IBC has given a lower limit
on its base shear coefficient, which means to say that, beyond certain time
period, design seismic force will remain same. This is done to ensure
certain minimum strength against lateral loads. Moreover, if time period is
incorrectly estimated on higher side, then also this lower limit acts as a
safeguard. IS 1893 does not have such lower limit and for tanks also in
the IITK-GSDMA Guideline, as of now there is no such lower limit.
4. How to find base shear coefficient based on IS 1893:2003 for two identical
buildings designed for 50 and 100 years respectively.
5. Why IS code specifies base shear coefficients at working stress level, while
IBC specifies at Ultimate stress level?
In India, working stress method is still quite common. Hence, IS 1893 has
given design spectrum at working stress level. However, it does not really
matter. We use load factors to arrive at loads to be used for limit state
design. Users of IBC use a factor of 0.7 to arrive at forces for working
stress design.
6. In some of the international codes (eg. New Zealand and French codes), the
spectral amplification factor for hard rock is higher followed by medium and
soft soils. Why is it so? But in IS 1893:2003, the spectral amplifications are
same for both rock and soil sites. Can please explain why?
In hard soil, high frequency (low time period) waves get amplified and in
soft soil, low frequency (long time period) waves get amplified. Thus, in
low time period range, spectral amplification factor will be higher for hard
soil. Similarly, in long time period range, spectral amplification for soft soil
will be higher. The spectral amplification factors are obtained from
recorded data of ground motion in various soil conditions. As of now, IS
1893 (Part 1) has kept same spectral amplification in short period range
for all types of soils. With the availability of more reliable data, spectra in
short period range may be modified for different soil conditions.
7. In some of the standards (eg. TecDoc 1347) provision is made to account for
local site effects (Site amplification etc). In IS 1893:2002 why no such provision
is made?
SDS is specified in short period range and there is no specific value of time
period at which it is specified. One may assume that this period will be
less than approximately 0.1 sec. Unlike this, SD1 is specified at 1.0 sec
time period.

Effect of obstructions inside tank
Solution:
Net volume of container = π/4x(122 –22)x4 = 439.8 m3
Equivalent cylinder will have liquid height of 4 m and its
volume has to be 439.8 m3.
Let D be the diameter of equivalent circular cylinder, then
π/4xD2x4 = 439.8 m3
∴ D = 11.83 m
Thus, for equivalent circular tank, h = 4 m, D = 11.83m
and h/D = 4/11.83 = 0.34.
This h/D shall be used to find parameters of mechanical
model of tank

Effect of higher modes
mi and mc described in Lecture 1, correspond
to first impulsive and convective modes
For most tanks ( 0.15 < h/D < 1.5) the first
impulsive and convective modes together
account for 85 to 98% of total liquid mass
Hence, higher modes are not included
This is also one of the reasons for summation of
mi and mc being not equal to total liquid mass

• In Slide-16: Please correct the tw/D ratio. Both dotted line and thick line are
showing the same ratio of 0.0005.
You are right. Graph with solid line is for tw/D = 0.005
• Kindly furnish the formula for time period of a ground supported tanks with
finned base?
Finned base? You are perhaps asking formula for tanks with flexible
base. This has been answered in a subsequent question.
• In Slide-62: Kindly provide the formula for stiffness of staging based on shear
deformation.
1. How to find the time period of ground supported tanks with flexible
connection?
Tanks with flexible connections are those wherein, between wall and base
there is a flexible pad. These types of tanks are described in ACI 350.3 and
are reproduced in Figure 6 of IITK-GSDMA Guideline. ACI 350.3 suggests
following formula for impulsive mode time period of circular tanks on flexible
base
8π (Ww + Wr + Wi )
Ti =
gDKa
Where, Ww, Wr, and Wi are weights of wall, roof and impulsive liquid
respectively. D is diameter of tank and Ka is stiffness of base pad in the
units of force/m2.
2. Even though the time period of impulsive mode of ground supported tanks
with flexible base is low, the sa/g values as per IS 1893 is low in this region. How
to account this reduced sa/g values in design?
For tanks, Sa/g graph has been made horizontal in this low period range,
hence, this question will not arise. Please refer Clause 4.5.2 of the
Guideline.
3. How to find the damping if impulsive and convective time periods are not
well separated?
If two time periods are not well separated, then we have to solve 2-DoF
system, wherein, damping is different for both the DoF. This will be non-
classically damped system. This has been pointed out in the Commentary to
clause 4.2.2.4. Time period, mode shapes and modal superposition
methods for non-classically damped systems have been developed and this
information is available in some advanced textbooks on Structural
Dynamics.
4. How the flexibility of pad affects the impulsive mode time period?
In rectangular tanks, for wall design, total lateral force and bending moment
acting on that wall is required. Hence, for the design of a particular wall,
forces arising due to seismic load in the perpendicular direction shall be
considered.
6. How we can incorporate the effect of soil flexibility to find the impulsive mode
time period?
7. What is the criteria for decoupling mi+ms,ks and mc,kc (apart from Priestly's
method). Can ASCE4-98 guideline for decoupling equipment masses be used
here?
8. While decoupling, only 1/3rd of the mass of staging is considered. How the
remaining mass is accounted?
This has been explained in the commentary to Clause 4.2.2.3. Staging acts
like a lateral spring. You consider a SDoF system and include mass of the
spring also. Assuming that spring deflection varies linearly along its length,
one finds that in the time period only one-third mass of spring contributes.
9. In slide 16,
a) On the graph, what does 'z' represent?
b) The curves are presented for h/D = 0.5. For other values are curves
available?
c) tw/D = 0.0005 is represented by both bold and dotted curves. Please correct.
d) For rigid tank, what will be the value of tw/D?
The formula specified by the code to consider lateral stiffness of shaft type
staging considers Ks = 3*EI /L^3. (Lecture 3, Slide 62, E- Course on Tanks)

Modifications are:
The rising portion in short period range from (0 to
0.1 sec) has been made constant
Very stiff structures have time period less than 0.1 sec
There may be modeling errors; actual time period may be
slightly higher
As the structure gets slightly damaged, its natural period
elongates
Ductility does not help in reducing response of very stiff
structures
Hence, rising portion in the range 0 to 0.1 sec is usually
disallowed by the codes.
Spectra is extended beyond 4 sec
Since convective time period may be greater than 4 sec.
Beyond 4 sec, 1/T variation is retained

This completes seismic force evaluation on tanks
There are two main steps
Evaluation of impulsive and convective masses
Evaluation of base shear coefficients for
impulsive and convective modes
SRSS rule is used to combine impulsive and
convective responses
Critical direction of seismic loading shall be
properly ascertained
Else, 100%+30% or SRSS rule be used

logarithmic interpolation used?
3. For multistoreyed buildings with "soft storey" what is the importance factor to
be adopted?
Dear Sir,
I have been attending the ecourse on the design of liquid storage
structures. Since we deal mostly with petroleum tank storages I am more
interested in learning about the same.There were a few points I would like
clarification on.
In certain areas due to the soil characteristics the storage tanks are some
times rested on RCC pile foundations
In certain cases the tanks are resten on sandpad foundations, the
underlying starta below the sand pad foundations are strngthened with stone
columns.
In such cases do we have to take the effect of seismic forces and design
the tanks using the two degree of freedom, and will the piles/stone columns
act as a staging thus making the whole structure behave like an elevated
tank.
In the first case, there will be a RC ring beam (or circular pile cap), which is
supported on piles. Tank wall and some portion of base plate rest on this
ring beam. Inside the ring beam there will be sand filling, which supports
rest of the base plate. This tank will be considered as ground-supported
tank and not as elevated tank. In the second case, the entire base plate
rests on sand fill, which is supported on compacted stone columns. For this
case also, tank will be treated as ground supported tank. The two degree
of freedom model of elevated tank is not applicable to these tanks. For
circular steel tanks, first find the impulsive time period using formula given
in Lecture 3 (also refer Clause 4.3.1.1 of the Guideline). Then, find the
convective mode time period and proceed with the evaluation of base
shear coefficient.
Lecture 5
1. Why Vi and Vc (also Moi&Moc) are combined using SRSS rule? Wouldn’t
absolute sum be more accurate as the effects of impulsive and convective mass
are simultaneously present?

Example
For this tank, from the previous examples, at the bottom of wall (y =

Piw = 9.48 kN/m2; Pcw = 1.26 kN/m2;
Pv = 7.36 kN/m2; Pww = 1.15 kN/m2;
= 13 kN/m2
Total hydrostatic pressure at base = ρ g h = 49 kN/m2.
Thus, total hydrodynamic pressure of 13 kN/m2 is 26% of hydrostatic
pressure.

Vc = (Ah)c mc g = 0.04 x (110) x 9.81 = 43 kN
Convective forces are less than impulsive forces
Convective mass derives much smaller forces
than impulsive mass

Example 2:Base shear
2 2
Total Base shear, V = Vi +Vc = 280 kN
Base shear is about 6.3 % of total seismic
weight of 4429 kN (tank is located in seismic
zone IV)
Now, to obtain member forces, impulsive and
convective base shear is to be applied at
corresponding locations
Recall from Lecture 5, there are two
approaches to apply these forces
© Sudhir K. Jain, IIT Kanpur E-Course on Seismic Design of Tanks/ January 2006 Lecture 7/ Slide 31
Example 2:Base shear
Approach 1:
Apply impulsive forces at their respective
locations
Impulsive forces have two parts
Part1: 116 kN at hi* + hs
Part 2: 161 kN at hcg
Apply convective forces at its location
43 kN at hc* + hs

Example 2:Base shear
Approach 2:
Apply base shear, V at height h1 such that
V x h1 = M*
V = 280 kN and M* = 5448 kN-m
Hence, h1 = 5448/280 = 19.46 m
Thus, a force of 280 kN to be applied at 19.46 m

Analysis as per IS 1893:1984
Now, this tank will be analysed as per IS
1893:1984
This will help us compare design forces as per
the Guideline and IS 1893:1984
Let us recall two points
In IS 1893:1984 entire liquid mass is lumped as
impulsive mass
Hence, no convective mode
While finding the stiffness of staging, braces are
treated as infinitely rigid beams
This was general practice as suggested by solved example
in SP22.
Even though not suggested by IS:1893-1984.

Example 2: Member forces
To obtain design forces in columns and braces
Staging frame is to be analysed for lateral seismic force
One can use standard structural analysis programs.
Alternatively, one may use approximate analysis methods.
Plane frame analysis methods are well known
For example, moment distribution method and
Kani’s method
In this example, staging has polygon frame
It is not a plane frame
Strictly speaking, it is a space frame

Soil Structure Interaction
Soil condition is important in seismic analysis
Type of soil affects the ground motion and
structure’s response
Effect on ground motion is reflected in design
spectrum
Recall, there are different response spectra for
hard, medium and soft soil
Spectrum for soft soil is higher than hard soil
Except in short period range

Flexibility of piping
In past earthquakes, many tanks have suffered
damages at the junctions of tank and piping
These junctions are critical locations
Severe stress concentration occurs at junctions
Hence, piping shall have sufficient flexibility to
accommodate seismic movement
Without causing damage to tank shell or base

6.4)Due to vertical ground acceleration, lateral pressure
exerted by the liquid on the wall changes.
True
when subjected to vertical excitation, weight density of
liquid increases or decreases depending on direction of
vertical acceleration. Hence, hydrostatic pressure which
depends on weight density of liquid, will also increase or
decrease. This additional pressure is called pressure
due to vertical excitation.

Part II: True / False
7.1) If braces are treated as rigid beams, then seismic forces
are overestimated .
True
If braces are treated as rigid, they do not allow any
rotation at joints of columns and braces. This leads to
significant overestimation of stiffness. This reduces time
period and hence, higher seismic forces.
False
With the inclusion of shear deformation, lateral stiffness
decreases and time period which is inversely proportional
to square root of stiffness, increases.

Solution:
a) Stiffness from computer analysis
Staging is modeled using SAP 2000. Frame elements are used to
model braces, columns and circular ring beams. Columns are
considered to be fixed at the base.
Lateral load is to be applied at a height of 3.0 m from circular
ring beam. For this purpose, a rigid link of 3.0 m length is
required at the center of staging. In order to have a node at the
center, eight radial beams of same size as circular beams are also
modeled. From the central node, a vertical rigid link of 3.0 m
length is put. On this rigid link, a lateral force of 10 kN is applied.
Computer model is shown on next slide.
