Abstract
This study examines the impacts of geometric shapes of elevated tanks owing to the seismic loading action. Four typical tank shapes have been studied, namely: intze tank with a shaft, pure conical tank with a frame, combined conical tank, and cylindrical tank with a frame through a single degree of freedom, two degrees of freedom, and three dimensional finite element method, based on the full and empty condition using computer simulation program LUSAS FEA through added mass approach for accounting fluid-structure interaction. The results revealed that the intze shape is the most suitable shape to be analyzed based on mechanical approaches. While the impossibility of applying these approaches to conical tanks.
