Circular Steel Tank Design Calculation
Circular Steel Tank Design Calculation
Given Data:-
Ht of Tank,h 9.85 m
Dia of Tank,D 28 m
Density of liquid,ρ 16.2 KN/m³
Grade of Plate 340 N/mm²
Permissible stress 204 N/mm²
Plate width at bot. Along height 2m
Center of plate width 1m
Total vol. Of liquid 98255.6 kN
gravitational force,g 9.8 m/s²
Solution:-
Hydrostatic Pressure on wall:-
Liquid pressure @ base 159.57 KN/m²
Liquid pressure @ center of 2m
wide plate 143.37 KN/m²
U.D.L on half wall, 143.37 KN/m
Total load on half circular wall,F 4014.36 KN
Force on either end, 2007.18 KN
Resistance by wall, Thk.xht.x(0.6fy)
Therefore Thickness req 9.839 mm
Provide plate thickness of wall,t 12 mm
Thickness of roof plate 5 mm
