Abstract
Elevated tanks are considered very sensitive to seismic excitations. That is why several researchers have studied the performance of these structures under seismic loading. The elevated tanks support‘s design are the most responsible reason of the damages and failures of this kind of structure . In this present paper, we are used the finite element technique to study the seismic response of them with taking into account the interaction between fluid and structure in the presence of sloshing. Modal and transient analysis are carried out on two types of the elevated tanks support, while keeping the same quantity of concrete and the same fluid volume. The displacements at the top of the tank and The fundamental period of the impulsive mode of the elevated water tank with shaft support decreased compared to the elevated water tank with frame support .The obtained results confirm the supporting system effect on dynamic behavior of elevated water tanks .
