I. INTRODUCTION

Indian sub- continent is highly vulnerable to natural

disasters like earthquake, draughts, floods, cyclones etc.

These natural calamities are causing many casualties and

innumerable property loss every year. Water supply is a life

line facility that must remain functional following disaster.

Most municipalities in India have water supply system

which depends on elevated water tanks for storage. Elevated

water tank is a large elevated water storage container

constructed for the purpose of holding a water supply at a

height sufficient to pressurize a water distribution system.

These structures have a configuration that is especially

vulnerable to horizontal forces like earthquake due to the

large total mass concentrated at the top of slender supporting

structure. So it is important to check the severity of these

forces for particular region.

These structures has large mass concentrated at the

top of slender supporting structure hence these structure are

especially vulnerable to horizontal forces due to

earthquakes. All over the world, the elevated water tanks

were collapsed or heavily damaged during the earthquakes

because of unsuitable design of supporting system or wrong

selection of sup-porting system and underestimated demand

or overestimated strength. Gareane A. I, S. A. Osman &

O.A. Karim discussed the soil and water behavior of

elevated concrete water tank under seismic load, and

concluded that a significant effect obtained in shear force,

overturning moment and axial force at the base of elevated

water tank. Dr. Suchita Hirde & Dr. Manoj Hedaoo

discussed the seismic performance of elevated water tanks

for various Zones of India for various heights and capacity

of tanks for different soil conditions. The effect of height of

water tank, earthquake Zones and soil condition on

earthquake forces are discussed and finally concluded that

the seismic forces are increases with Zones and decreases

with height of supporting system, seismic forces are higher

in soft soil than medium soil, higher in medium soil than

hard soil. Earthquake forces for soft soil is about 40-41%

greater than that of hard soil for all earthquake Zones. IITK-

GSDMA [1] discussed the guidelines for seismic design of

liquid storage tanks. Is: 3370 (Part-II) [2] discussed the

criteria for earthquake resistant design of structure. IS

1893(Part-I): 2002 [3] discussed the criteria for earthquake

resistant design of structure. The value of Response

Reduction Factor mentioned in the code of practice IS:

1893:2009(Part-2) [4] “Criteria for Earthquake resistant

design of Structures:- Liquid retaining tanks", does not

consider the varying soil conditions and effect of foundation

system. Considering effect of soil-foundation interaction,

response reduction factors will changes due to response of

structure different with respect to fixed base conditions. So

aim of study is to find out response reduction factors for

different soil & foundation conditions.

The study presented here is been carried out for the

Reinforced Concrete Intze Type Elevated Water Tank of

storing capacity of 1000 m3. The effect of the Soil structure

interaction of this structure is analyzed using FEM Software

SAP2000 [5]. The Soil data that has been used for studying

the SSI, has been provided by Institute of Seismological

Research (ISR). The variations that have been included for

the study are as below:

Varying foundation conditions of the ESR i.e. Fixed

base, isolated footing and raft foundation.

Different water level conditions of the tank i.e. Empty,

Half and Full condition.

Different types of soil conditions for different locations

of Ahmedabad city.

II. CONCEPT OF RESPONSE REDUCTION FACTOR

Response reduction factor plays important role in seismic

design of ESR, which is dependent on three parameters

over-strength, redundancy and ductility. The response

reduction factor or force modification factor R reflects the

capacity of structure to dissipate energy through inelastic

behavior. It is a combined effect of over-strength, ductility

and redundancy represented as

R=Ωo*RR*Rμ. ………….(1)

Over strength factor (Ωo) accounts for the yielding

of a structure at load higher than the design load due to

various partial safety factors, strain hardening, oversized

members, confinement of concrete. Non-structural elements

also contribute to the over strength. Ductility factor (Rμ) is a

ratio of ultimate displacement or code specified permissible

displacement to the yield displacement. Higher ductility

implies that the structure can withstand stronger shaking

without collapse. Redundancy factor (RR) depends on the

number of vertical framing participate in seismic resistance.

The change in R factor will be in accordance with its key

components as shown in figure 1

III. APPROACHES FOR SOIL-FOUNDATION-STRUCTURE

INTERACTION

A. Spring Base or Cone Model (Sub Structure) Approach

for Raft Foundation

In a dynamic soil–structure-interaction analysis a bounded

structure (which may be linear or nonlinear), consisting of

the actual structure and an adjacent irregular soil if present,

will interact with the unbounded (infinite or semi-infinite)

soil which is assumed to be linear elastic as shown in Fig.

2..A cone model has been proposed by Meek and Wolf [8,9]

for evaluating the dynamic stiffness and effective input

motion of a foundation on the ground is used and static

stiffness of this truncated cone (Fig.2) for circular rigid

foundation can be calculated with equations given in Table

I. Where, G: Shear modulus, r0: Radius of circular

foundation, ϑ: Poisson ratio, KV, KH, KR and KT are the

vertical, horizontal, rocking and torsional stiffness,

respectively. In Fig.3 Kx and Kh represent the translation and

rocking stiffness of foundation that can be modeled with

spring. These are attached to the central point of the rigid

circular foundation. Stiffness is calculated for individual

layers and then equivalent stiffness calculated using Bowel’s

weighted approach as shown below Eqs. (2) and (3)

C. Description of Subsoil Data

A study considered different three sites of Ahmedabad city

location selected as per soil classification given in IS

1893:2002 soil data selected as soft medium and hard soil

based on SPT N-value, soil data collected with help of

institute of seismological research, Gandhinagar. From soil

characteristic and shear wave velocity basic soil properties

find out with help of some imperial formulas. For the

analysis and available soil data such as number of layers of

soil, thickness of each layer, unit weight, and shear modulus

are obtained from borehole data and geophysical testing.

The soil characteristics can be calculated with well-

known equations G = E/2(1- ϑ) and Vs = G/ρ2; where, ϑ:

poisons ratio, E: Modulus of elasticity of soil layer, ρ: is the

mass density, and G is the shear modulus, Vs: Shear wave

velocity of soil layer, which is shown in Table III.

According to soil bearing capacity size and depth of footing

and thickness of raft is selected which is shown in Table II.

V. PUSH-OVER ANALYSIS METHOD

The procedure of performing the pushover analysis in this

study is adapted from FEMA 273 [13]. First, the gravity

loads including weights of tank, stored water, pedestal wall

and other equipment’s is applied to the FE model. Next a

gradually increasing lateral load is applied to the model until

the structure collapses. Since most of the weight in an

elevated water tank is concentrated in the tank and that the

modal mass participation factor based on modal analysis of

the first mode is above 90%, the lateral load is applied with

a load pattern similar to the first (fundamental) mode shape.

For push-over analysis hinges properties like Moment-

rotation (M-φ) and Axial load – Bending Moment (P-M)

relationships for flexural and compression members have

been developed using Xtract’s software. After assigning

hinge properties to the structure, the static pushover cases

were defined. Typically, the gravity loads were applied first

and then subsequent lateral static pushover load cases were

specified to start from the final conditions of the gravity

pushover. In the gravity case, the structure was loaded with

the dead load and 25% of the live load. The application of

gravity loads was force-controlled whereas the application

of lateral loads was displacement-controlled. The first mode

response of the structure was assigned as the load pattern for

the lateral push applied to the structure. The procedure

involves applying horizontal loads, in a prescribed pattern,

to a computer model of the structure, incrementally

The nonlinear static procedure requires prior

estimation of target displacement. The target displacement

serves as an estimate of the maximum displacement of the

selected point (node) in the subject structure during the

design earthquake. The node associated with the center of

mass at CG of container is often the target point or target

node selected for comparison with target displacement. The

maximum limit for the roof displacement is specified as

0.004H, where H is the height of the structure.[14]

A. Bilinear Approximation of Pushover Curves

In order to extract meaningful and practical information, it is

often required to develop an equivalent bilinear

approximation of pushover curve. The maximum base shear

(Vmax) is defined as the maximum base shear developed in

the structure prior to onset of stiffness degradation as shown

in Fig. 5. Unlike Vmax, defining Δmax requires judgment and

depends on the structure type and its occupancy. Generally,

Δmax might be defined in a way to account for post-peak

deformation. This is shown in Fig. 5 as Δultimate which

denotes the deformation of the structure after a certain

reduction in the stiffness. Due to the nonlinear

characteristics of reinforced concrete structures, which

involves cracking and crushing of concrete as well as

yielding of steel, determining the global yield displacement

(Δy) is a complicated task.[15]

VII. CONCLUSION

From the soil-structure analysis considering different

foundation systems, using non-linear static push-over

analysis to finding out of seismic response factor as per

ATC-19 given in table 8. Which leads to following

conclusions.

Response reduction factor in fixed condition is less

compare to different foundation with SSI approach.

Value of R is higher in raft type foundation compare to

isolated footing for hard soil.

For medium & soft soil, response reduction factor is

lower in case of raft foundation with respect to isolated

footing.

Over strength factor is higher in different SSI approach

compare to fixed based condition.

Over strength factor has higher value for raft

foundation in all soil conditions.

From this study it is conclude that effect of

different foundation is shown in response reduction factor.

For detail study more soil data & different structure should

be taken in consideration.
