Effect of Arrangement of the Prestressing Tendons in the Wall of Circular Storage Tank

원형탱크구조물 벽체의 텐던 배치에 대한 고찰

Prestressing tendons in the wall of circular storage tank were investigated from the viewpoint of equivalent load method. Special attention was paid to the effectiveness of eccentricities of the circumferential and vertical tendons. Some aspects which are frequently overlooked or misinterpreted in the analysis of vertical tendons are discussed. It is expected that the equivalent load method can be effectively used to simplify the analysis of tendons in the circular wall thus to minimize the errors.
