CALCULATION
Rectangular tanks are designed for static head of the liquid. No internal or external pressure is considered. In order to satisfy thickness requireement, external stiffeners are
provided so that the tank plates do not buckle under the stress developed due to no liquid head.
Total volume of tank 11.09 m3
Empty weight of tank 1,108.70 kg
Weight of the liquid in the tank 11,088.00 kg
Total weight of tank with liquid 12,196.70 kg

The Analysis of the tank shell will be done in three parts :

1 Thickness requirement for the top/bottom of the tank
2 Thickness requirement for the side of the tank

This thickness analysis would be followed by the check for structural requirement for stiffener.
The structural calculation for the adequacy of the structure for lifting of the tank and for operating condition with full liquid along with adequacy check for the lifting lug shall
conclude the calculations.

A. Thickness requirement for the top/base of tank

As per Roark's formula for stress and strain ,Seventh Edition, Table 11.4, Page 508, Case No.8 for a rectangular plate with all edges fixed and load distributed uniformly over the entire plate.

The base of the tank can be assumed too be a plate with uniform loading.
Total vertical load on the bottom plate (Wl) 12,196.80 kg
Total area of the bottom plate (Ab) 4.00 m2
The load per unit area of the plate (q) 3,049.20 kg/cm2 0.30492 kg/cm2 29.90 kPa

The maxmium unstiffened length becomes (a) 325.00 mm 32.50 cm

The maxmium unstiffened width becomes (b) 325.00 mm 32.50 cm
The ratio of length to width (a/b) 1.00
