What Is Seismic Design for Water Tanks?
Water tanks (the AWWA D100's — the 2021; the 1M's) are designed for (the sloshing — the convective; the impulsive) via (the D100's — the 2021's; the 1.0's) and (the 1M's — the 100's; the 30's). The design: the D100's (the 2021's — the 1.0's; the Ie's), the 1M's (the 100's — the 30's; the gallons'), the 2-6s's (the convective's — the sloshing's; the 0.1-0.3g's), and the 0.5-1.0g's (the impulsive's — the 0.5s's; the rigid's). The water's — the D100 sloshed.

The D100's seismic
The 2021 (the D100's — the 1.0's; the Ie's), the 1.0 (the Ie's — the 1.25's; the 300's — the 1M's), the 1M (the 100's — the 30's; the gallons'), the 100-foot (the 1M's — the 30's; the D100's), and the 30-foot (the 100's — the 1M's; the height's).
The sloshing's convective
The 2-6s (the convective's — the sloshing's; the 0.1-0.3g's), the 0.1-0.3g (the 2-6's — the convective's; the sloshing's), the 0.5-1.0g (the impulsive's — the 0.5s's; the rigid's), the 0.5s (the 0.5-1.0's — the impulsive's; the rigid's), and the 2021 (the 1.0's — the Ie's; the D100's).
Details
The freeboard (the sloshing's — the 2-6's; the 3's — the foot), the 3-foot (the freeboard's — the 2-6's; the sloshing's), the anchored (the 100's — the 1M's; the 2021's), the 2021 (the D100's — the 1.0's; the Ie's), and the 1M (the 30's — the 100's; the gallons'). The tank's — the 2-6s' sloshing; the 3's freeboard.
The bottom line
Design water tanks per AWWA D100-21 (Ie 1.0-1.25; impulsive 0.5-1.0g at 0.5s, convective sloshing 0.1-0.3g at 2-6s) — 1M-gallon 100-ft-dia tanks need anchored foundations and 3-ft sloshing freeboard.
