Seismic Design of Liquid-Containing Concrete Structures and Commentary (ACI 350.3-06)

Description: This standard is a guide to the requirement of ACI-350. It prescribes procedures for the seismic analysis of liquid-containing concrete structures. These procedures address the "loading side" of seismic design and shall be used in accordance with ACI-350, Section 1.1.8 and Chapter 21. This standard works hand in hand with other standards provided by ACI such as the ACI-350 code and ACI-350.1 standard for tightness testing. It is also a perfect companion to PCA's The Design of Circular Tanks (IS072), Design of Rectangular Tanks (IS003), and Design of Tanks for Earthquake Forces (EB219). Published by ACI.
