Comparative Seismic Analysis of Elevated RCC Water Tanks with VaryingStaging and Bracing Systems

Abstract

This research focuses on the seismic analysis of Intze-type elevated water tanks with varying staging heights and differentbracing systems to determine their influence on structural safety. Using Response Spectrum Analysis (RSA) as per IS 1893 (Part2):2002, tanks with four bracing arrangements—simple, cross, radial, and rectangular—were modeled in STAAD.Pro V8i at stagingheights of 15 m, 20 m, and 25 m across seismic zones II, III, and IV. The seismic performance was evaluated under both empty andfull tank conditions by analyzing critical response parameters, including displacement, base shear, axial force, torsion, shear force,and bending moment. Results reveal that bracing configuration and staging height significantly affect seismic behavior. Among thesystems considered, rectangular and cross bracing provided greater stiffness and reduced displacement, while simple bracingexhibited higher vulnerability under seismic loads.Keywords: RSA, IS 1893:2002, Displacement, Axial Pressure, Shear force, base shear, Bending moment, Elevated Water Tank
