When constructing a ground level water tank, the four seismic considerations are:
When constructing a ground level water tank, the key seismic considerations include anchorage of the tank and foundation to ensure stability during an earthquake, clearance around the pipe penetrations through the pump house or other structural walls to avoid damage during seismic activity, proper steel thickness near the base of the tank to withstand seismic forces, and flexibility of pipe connections to the tank to accommodate movement and prevent ruptures. These factors are critical for ensuring the structural integrity and operational functionality of the water tank during and after seismic events.
