Abstract
Water tank are as any structures that should have foundation. Moreover, the foundation of water tanks should be studied carefully, any problems in the foundation, such as, settlement, differential settlement, failure in soil strength will lead to serious sequences in the water tank. This project will review the types of water tanks and their corresponding aspects, such as shapes, analysis and structural loads.
In this project a specified water tank will study and analyzed to get the load on the foundation. Then the foundation of the tank will be designed. In this project, we will consider one type of foundation soil that the tank will rest on. The soil type and bearing capacity are as follows:
*medium soil (Allowable bearing capacity 250 kN/m2).
