Introduction
INTRODUCTION

Cylindrical walls of circular tanks and other containers are usually subjected to radial pressure
from the contained material or from externally retained earth. This pressure is assumed here to
have an intensity that is constant at any one level but varies in the vertical direction. Other
sources of such axisymmetrical loading on walls are circumferential prestressing, weight of
overhanging circular platforms, or peripheral channels.
This type of loading produces axisymmetrical radial displacement. The wall edges at the top or
bottom may be free to rotate or translate, and may be restrained by the base or the cover. Thus,
the edges may receive axisymmetrical radial shear or bending moment. Such end forces will also
develop at a restrained edge due to the effects of axisymmetrical temperature variation,
shrinkage, or creep of concrete.
For the analysis of a wall of this type it is sufficient to consider the forces and the deformations
of a typical elemental strip parallel to the cylinder axis. The radial displacement of the strip must
be accompanied by hoop forces. As will be studied later, the elemental strip behaves as a beam
on elastic foundation, which receives transverse reaction forces proportional at every point to
the deflection of the beam. The analysis constitutes a solution of one governing differential
equation relating the deflection to the applied load.
The objective of this project is to provide a solution of the aforementioned soil-structure

interaction problem of underground circular tanks (differential equation solved by FEM) to
obtain the reactions on the edges and the internal forces in circular-cylindrical walls. For the
sake of simplicity in practical application, PCA design tables are provided and their use
illustrated by PCA design examples. Although the tables are mainly intended for use in the
design of concrete tanks, they can also be utilized in the analysis of silos, pipes, or any circular-
cylindrical shell when subjected to axisymmetrical loading and support conditions. The tables
are also applicable for the more general problem often met in practice of a beam on elastic
foundation.

2.1 LINEAR ANALYSIS OF IN-PLANE STRUCTURES USING STIFFNESS MATRIX METHOD
The theoretical foundation for matrix (stiffness) method of structural analysis was laid and
developed by many scientists:
James, C. Maxwell, [1864] who introduced the method of Consistent Deformations (flexibility
method).
Georg, A. Maney, [1915] who developed the Slope-Deflection method (stiffness method).
These classical methods are considered to be the precursors of the matrix (Flexibility and
Stiffness) method, respectively. In the pre-computer era, the main disadvantage of these earlier
methods was that they required direct solution of Simultaneous Equations (formidable task by
hand calculations in cases more than a few unknowns).
The invention of computers in the late-1940s revolutionized structural analysis. As computers

could solve large systems of Simultaneous Equations, the analysis methods yielding solutions in
that form were no longer at a disadvantage, but in fact were preferred, because Simultaneous
Equations could be expressed in matrix form and conveniently programmed for solution on
computers.
Levy, S., [1947] is generally considered to have been the first to introduce the flexibility method,
by generalizing the classical method of consistent deformations.
Falkenheimer, H., Langefors, B., and Denke, P. H., [1950], many subsequent researches
extended the flexibility method and expressed in matrix form are:
Livesley, R. K., [1954], is generally considered to have been the first to introduce the stiffness
matrix in 1954, by generalizing the classical method of slop-deflections.
Argyris, J. H., and Kelsey, S., [1954], the two subsequent researches presented a formulation for
stiffness matrices based on Energy Principles.
Turner, M. T., Clough, R. W., and Martin, H. C., [1956], derived stiffness matrices for truss
members and frame members using the finite element approach, and introduced the now popular
Direct Stiffness Method for generating the structure stiffness matrix.
Livesley, R. K., [1956], presented the Nonlinear Formulation of the stiffness method for stability
analysis of frames.
Since the mid-1950s, the development of Stiffness Method has been continued at a tremendous
pace, with research efforts in the recent years directed mainly toward formulating procedures for
Dynamic and Nonlinear analysis of structures, and developing efficient Computational
Techniques (load incremental procedures and Modified Newton-Raphson for solving nonlinear
Equations) for analyzing large structures and large displacements. Among those researchers are:
S. S. Archer, C. Birnstiel, R. H. Gallagher, J. Padlog, J. S. przemieniecki, C. K. Wang, and E.
L. Wilson and many others.
LIVESLEY, R. K. [1964] described the application of the Newton- Raphson procedure to

nonlinear structures. His analysis is general and no equations are presented for framed structures.
However, he did illustrate the analysis of a guyed tower.

3.1. ANALYSIS METHOD USING STIFFNESS MATRIX

Stiffness Matrix method is one of the most efficient means for solving a in-plane Elastic
Structures (frames and girders) type of problem based on following steps. It is easy to account for
Boundary Conditions, and self weight (Girder).
It is more versatile (multi-purposes) than the Finite Difference method, which requires a different
equation formulation for ends and the boundary conditions, and great difficulty is had if the Beam
elements are of different lengths.
Only the basic elements of the Stiffness Matrix Method will be introduce here, and the researcher
is referred to KassimAli (1999) (15) or Bowles (1974) if more background is required. This
method was interpolated to computer program which is given in appendix A. The program
algorithm is explained in details in chapter four and it conveniently coded for the user. Also the
same program was used to obtain the results of the numerical examples given in chapter four of
this study.
3.1.1 GENERAL EQUATION AND THEIR SOLUTION
For the Beam Element, shown in Fig.(3.1), at any node (i) (junction of two or more members) on
the in-plane structure the equilibrium equation is:
Pi=Bi Fi ……………………Eq.(3.1)
Which states that the external node force P is equated to the internal member forces F using
bridging constants A. It should be is understand that (Pi, Fi) are used for either Forces (Shear) or
Bending Moments. This equation is shorthand notation for several values of Ai, Fi summed to
equal the ith nodal force.
For the full set of nodes on any in-plane structure and using matrix notation where P, F are
Columns Vectors and A is a Rectangular Matrix, this becomes:
{Pi }=[Bi ]{F i }……………………Eq.(3.2)
Fig.(3.1) Beam Element, global and local forces-deformations designation.
An Equation relating internal-member deformation e at any node to the external nodal

displacements is:
{ei }=[ Ai ]{ X i }………………………..(a)
10
Where both e and X may be rotations (in radians) or translations. From the Reciprocal Theorem
in structural mechanics it can be shown that the [A] matrix is exactly the transpose of the [B]
matrix, thus:
T
{ei }=[ B] { X i }……………………..(b)
The internal-member forces {F} are related to the internal-member displacements {e} as:
{F i }=[k ]{ei }…………………………(c)
These three equations are the fundamental equations in the Stiffness Matrix Method of analysis:
Substituting (b) into (c),
{ F i }=[ k ] {e i }= [ k ] [B]T X …………………………(d)

Substituting (d) into (a),
{ Pi } =[ B ] { Fi }=[ B] [ k ] [B]T X …………………………(e)

Note the order of terms used in developing Eqs. (d) and (e}. Now the only unknowns in this
system of equations are the X’s: so the BKBT is inverted to obtain
{ X i }=([B ][k ][ B]T )−1 {Pi }…………………………(f)

And with the X’s values we can back-substitute into Eq. (d) to obtain the internal-member forces
which are necessary for design. This method gives two important pieces of information: (1)
design data and (2) deformation data.
The BKBT matrix above is often called Overall assembly Matrix, since it represents the system of
equations for each P or X nodal entry. It is convenient to build it from one finite element of the
structure at a time and use superposition to build the global BKB T from the Local element
EBKBT. This is easily accomplished, since every entry in both the Global and Local BKBT with a
unique set of subscripts is placed into that subscript location in the BKBT; i.e., for i = 2, j = 5 all
(2, 5) subscripts in EBKBT are added into the (2, 5) coordinate location of the global BKBT.
3.1.2. DEVELOPING THE ELEMENT [B] MATRIX
Consider the in-plane structure, simple beam, shown in Fig.(3.2) coded with four values of P-X
(note that two of these P-X values will be common to the next element) and the forces on the
element Fig.(3.2). The forces on the element include two internal Bending Moments and the shear
effect of the Bending Moments. The sign convention used is consistent with the developed
computer program BEF.

Now at node (1), summing Moments (Fig.(3.2d))

Similarly, summing forces and noting that the soil reaction (spring) forces are Global and will be
considered separately, we have:

Placing into conventional matrix form, the Element Transformation Matrix [EB] in local

P1 1 0
EB = P2 1/L 1/L
P3 0 1
P4 -1/L -1/L
In same manner the EA matrix for element (2) would contain P3 to P6.

3.1.4. DEVELOPING THE ELEMENT [kBT] AND [BKBT] MATRICES
The EkBT matrix is formed by multiplying the [Ek] and the transpose of the [EB] matrix (in the
computer program this is done in place by proper use of subscripting) A T goes always with e and
X. The EBkBT will be also obtained in a similar.
Multiplying [Ek] and [EBT] matrices and rearrange them, yields:
1 2 3 4

Multiplying [EB] and [EkBT] matrices and rearrange them, yields:

EBkBT = L L L L
P3 2 2 2
L L L L

L2 L3 L2 L3
From Fig.(3.4), summing of the vertical forces on a node 1 will produce:
F1 + F 2
P 2− =0.0
L
Since (F1+F2)/L is already included in the Global BkBT, we could rewrite above equation to:
P2=BkB T2 X 2 X 2=[BkB T2 X 2 ] X 2
A check on the correct formation of the EBkB T and the global BkBT is that it is always
symmetrical and there cannot be a zero on the diagonal.
14
3.1.5. DEVELOPING THE P MATRICES

The P matrix (a column vector) consists in zeroing the array and then inputting those node loads
that are nonzero. The usual design problem may involve several different loading cases or
conditions, as shown in Appendix II, so the array is of the form P(I, J) where (i) identifies the
load entry with respect to the node and P-X coding and (j) the load case.
It is necessary to know the sign convention of the (P-X) coding used in forming the [EA] matrix
or output may be in substantial error. Therefore; the sign convention will be as follow: the joint
translations are considered positive when they act in positive direction of Y-axis, and joint
rotations are considered positive when they rotate in counterclockwise direction.
For columns that are intermediate between two nodes, we may do one of two things:
1. Transfer the column loads to adjacent nodes prier to make problem sketch using superposition
concept.
2. Transfer the column loads to adjacent nodes as if the element has Fixed-Ends Actions so the
values include Fixed-End moments and shears (vertical loads).This procedure is strictly correct
but the massive amount of computations is seldom worth the small improvement in
computational precision.
3.1.6. BOUNDARY CONDITIONS

The particular advantage of the Stiffness Matrix method is to allow boundary conditions of
known displacement (translations or rotations). It is common in foundation analysis to have
displacements which are known to be zero (beam on rock, beam embedded in an anchor of some
type, etc.). There are two major cases of boundary conditions:
a. When the displacements are restrained (zero) in any particular node then the
corresponding rows and columns in the overall stiffness matrix will be eliminated
(substitute by zeros).
b. When the (i) displacements are known (δ) in any particular node then the opposite
position in load vector [p] will have this known value (δ), and corresponding rows and
columns in the overall stiffness matrix will be eliminated (substitute by zeros) except the
location of (i,i) which will have unit value of (1.0).

COMPUTER PROGRAM

4.1 INTRODUCTION
This chapter presents a brief description of the computer program applied in this study which
governs the problem of analysis and design of space concrete water circular tank structure
(sewage treatment plant tanks) using Finite Element Method (FEM). The program was carried
using STAAD.Pro (version 22), it is consist of two major parts; first the analysis of the in-plane
structure.. Second part is the checking of RC circular tanks walls elements according to the ACI-
318 and ACI-350 Design Manual using USD designing method.
4.2 DEVELOPMENTS OF COMPUTER PROGRAM
4.2.1. First part; Analysis of space plated structure using FEM Method.
At first, the computer program will develop the [EB] and [Ek] for each in-plane (beam) element
from input data describing the member geometry (coordinates) and cross-section properties
(modulus of elasticity, moment of inertia, area, angle of rotation…etc). Then, the program will
develop element stiffness matrix [EBkB T] for each element in global coordinate system,
throughout series of matrix operations (inverse, multiplication, and addition). Later on, the
program will assemble the overall stiffness matrix [BkB T] which is also represented by [K].
Finally, a direct solution of the general stiffness equation {P}=[K]{d}, where {P} matrix
containing the known externally applied loads, will yield the global displacements {X}
(translations and rotations). The computer program then rebuilds the [EB] and [Ek] to obtain the
[EkBT] and computes the internal element forces (axial, shear and moments) and node reactions.
The sign convention used in this program is as follow: the joint translations are considered
positive when they act in positive direction of Y-axis, and joint rotations are considered positive
when they rotate in counterclockwise direction.
It should be noticed that all above steps should be carried out with proper indices that identifies
the (P-X) coding so that the entries are correctly inserted into their right position of matrix.
Let the number of nodes NN and since DOF is three for each node. Each element stiffness
element [EBkBT] has (6x6) size but the overall assembled stiffness matrix [BkB T] or [K] has
(NPxNP) size because of the assembling process, where NP = NN * 3, therefore;
{ P NP }=[ BkB TNP × NP ] { X NP }

This indicates that the System of Equations is just sufficient, which yields a square coefficient
matrix [NPxNP], the only type which can be inverted. It also gives a quick estimate of computer
needs, as the matrix is always the size of (NP x NP) the number of {P}. With proper coding, as
shown in Fig.(3.4).
The global [BkBT] is banded with all zeros except for a diagonal strip of nonzero entries that is
twelve values wide. These twelve nonzero entries, six are identical (the band is symmetrical).
17
There are matrix reduction routines to solve these type half-band width problems. As a
consequence the actual matrix required (with a band reduction method) is only (NP x 6) entries
instead of (NP x NP).
It may be convenient to store the [EkB T] on a separate array when the [BkB T] is being built and
recall it to compute the internal element forces of the {F} matrix.
4.4 COMPUTER PROGRAM APPLICATION:

Case study: Analysis and design a underground water circular tank supported by elastic
foundation (Winkler springs type), as shown in fig.(4.1), with a diameter of (24.0 m), height of
(5.5m), total water capacity of (2260 m3) and carrying internal hydrostatic Loading pressure
consisted of a uniformly distributed wheel load of (linearly varied 50 kPa). In addition it carries
carrying an external earth retained Loading pressure consisted of a uniformly distributed wheel
load of (linearly varied 100 kPa) and hydrostatic uplift pressure of (linearly distributed 50 kPa).
The computed results are listed below. Each load case was investigated for max stress and
deformation in order to demonstrate several factors effects.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
31
CONCLUSIONS
Depending on the results obtained from the present study, several conclusions may be
established. These may be summarized as follows:
Results indicate that space RC concrete circular tanks structures can be can be dealt with
successfully by the FEM Method. Applied Program in this study (STAAD.Pro) is quite efficient
and reliable for this type of analysis, and the process of analyses can be carried out rapidly on
electronic computer. Design criteria given by ACI-318 and ACI-350 (USD design) has been
successfully implement inside presented program.
1. Deep tanks should be supported on steady pilled foundation or strong stratum to prevent
differential settlements.
2. Interior buffer walls should be used to prevent lateral shock wave.
3. Expansion joints should utilized when large underground tank is designed to prevent
excessive stresses.
4. Uplift pressure has major effects on MAT plate stresses.
5. Lateral earth pressure has direct effects on walled panels.
6. Wall stresses is directly related to applied hydrostatic loading varying.
7. Walls-to-MAT represent major concentration of stresses and need special kind of
reinforcement to prevent cracking.
8. Open roofed tank is structurally weak and lead to lateral deflections and need to be
reinforced.
9. Special lining layers should applied to prevent concrete deteriorations.
10. Hollow (or double plated wall) walls should be applied to reduced concrete quantities.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Many important recommendations could be suggested, for the given analysis method for in-plane
structures, to include the following factors:
1. Machinery vibrations could be added to study their structural effects.
2. Lateral earth retained removal should be investigated.
3. Liquid-soil-structure interaction could be analyzed furtherly.
4. Cracks width vs walls stiffness reduction could be also studied
5. Seismic analysis could be applied based to specific zone conditions
6. Wall counterforts should be added and study their effects.
