1. Main difference between aqua duct and tank dsigning is.

In tank designing we tabulate all

results and take the highest load. In aqua duct we tabulate all results and take the highest
load case.
In column designing we have to
2. In stability, section load calculations In row 20 onwards .All sections have 4 types of loading
except for section 1. And 2.
Section 1 and 2 does not have the chamfer sections. Section 5 does not have scamfer
section. But it has the top slab that adds up to 4 loadimngs.

3. In stability calculations of tanks siemic performance factor for only aqua ducts is 1.25-all
others it is 1.

When using the sheet for stability, be careful to take out the (Seismic) Structural importance factor
as 1-Because we have already multiplied by this value in calculation of seismic sheet. (H366-Stability
results sheet, make it 1)

4. In the trash rack structural sheet

Span is legth between supports

Effective length is legth between contraflectural points

5. In replication remember to put the X2 value where you want the replication at, X1 the plane
you want.

Aqua duct

1. Forgets to change seismic load actig heights

2. Make sure that the above loads acting heights are correctly calculated in the excel sheet
3. Can double check using the excel sheet made for stability.
Importance factor of all structures are 1.5

Performence factor (The ability to distribute the seismic force) is 1.5 only for aqua ducts.

6. Normally we don’t have to check for sliding unless seismic coefficient is close to friction
coefficient because it depends directly on these factors.
