CALCULATIONS FOR HYDRODYNAMIC PRESSURE DUE TO SEISMIC FOR RECTANGULAR TANK

====================================================================================

Since, the Total Capacity is devided into Two equal Compartments with A common partition wall. Hence the rigidity of partition
wall will be accounted for against the effect of hydrodynamic pressure due to seismic. Therefore the calculations for hydro-
dynamic forces have done considering the weight of water and concrete for one compartment.

Weight Calculations:
