Optimization Design of RC Elevated Water Tanks under Seismic Loads

Optimization Design of RC Elevated Water Tanks under Seismic Loads

This paper deals with the seismic column design of 35 elevated RC water storage tanks. Tanks comprise a top conic trunk reservoir, a column with variable hollow square cross-sections, and a shallow foundation on a sand layer. The five-column heights considered are 20, 25, 30, 35, and 40 m. The five...
