Consider an allowable soil settlement of 25 mm under the base slab.
Loadings:
Create a full-scaled 3D STAAD pro model of the underground water tank complying with the calculated demand, site constraints and the best practice guidelines for FEA. The final model should consist of all the applicable loadings on the structure, support conditions, material specifications and an average mesh size of 500 mm. The modelling of the entire geometry shall be based on center line approach and the model should be devoid of any errors or warnings.
Materials unit weight as per the code

Design of slab(IS-456)
Span shorter direction(clear) Ly = 3.125m
Span longer direction(clear) Lx = 5.5m
Live load on the slab(LL) = 3kN/m
Compressive strength of concrete(Fck) = 25N/mm^2
Yield strength of steel(Fy) = 415N/mm^2

Step - 1
Span to effective depth ratio L/d = 32
Minimum effective depth(d) = 97.67mm
Overall depth(D) = 127.66mm
Dia of bars in shorter direction = 10mm
Dia of bars in longer direction = 10mm
Effective depth(d) = 120mm
Loading on the slab
Dead load of the slab(DL) = 3.75kN/m^2
Super dead load = 5kN/m^2
Live load on the slab = 3kN/m^2
Total load on the slan = 11.75kN/m^2
Design load = Total load x load factor
= 17.63kN/m^2
Effective span Lx = 3.25m
Ly = 5.62m
Lx/Ly = 1.732 (two way)
1.5 | Alpha x | 1.75 | Alpha y | |

Calculation of Seismic Load (IS1893-Part I)
Design base shear VB = Ah x W
Where,
Ah = horizontal seismic coefficient as calculated as per 6.4.2
W = Total weight of the structure
Zone factor Z = 0.1 (Bngalore)
Soil condition factor Sa/g

Base dimension of building
Along-X = 25m
Along-Z = 16m
T along-X = 0.5513sec
T along-Z = 0.4410sec
Sa/g for hard soil = 1/T = 1.814 Along X

Responce reduction factor R = 3
Importance factor I = 1.2
Horizontal accelaration co-efficient Ah = 0.0363

Due to live loads, Typical floor LL = 3kN/m2
W LL = 300kN/m2
Due to live loads, Roof LL = 1.5kN/m2
W LL roof = 0
Total seismic weight W = 35400kN
