CHAPTER-I:
A Tank/lake is a large, natural or artificially created inland body of standing water, typically
freshwater, that is surrounded by land. Lakes can vary widely in size, depth, and shape,
ranging from small ponds to vast bodies of water. They can be formed through various
geological processes, including tectonic activity, glacial activity, volcanic activity, or human-
made constructions such as dams.
Stagnant Water:
Lakes are characterized by relatively still or stagnant water as compared to flowing rivers
or streams.
Lakes receive water from inflowing rivers, streams, precipitation, and groundwater. They
also have an outflow, which can be a river or an underground channel.
Basin or Depression:
Lakes are typically formed in basins or depressions in the Earth's surface. These basins
may result from geological processes such as tectonic activity or glacial erosion.
Natural or Artificial:
While many lakes are naturally occurring, some are human- made or artificial, created by
the construction of dams or reservoirs. Freshwater or Saline: Most lakes contain
freshwater, but there are also saline or brackish lakes with higher salt concentrations. The
type of water depends on factors such as geology, climate, and location.
Lakes come in various sizes, ranging from small ponds to large, expansive bodies of
water like the Great Lakes in North America. Shapes can be round, oval, irregular, or
elongated.
Ecological Systems:
Lakes support diverse ecosystems with a variety of plant and animal life. They provide
habitats for fish, birds, aquatic plants, and other organisms. Lakes serve multiple purposes,
including providing drinking water, support in agriculture through irrigation, offering
recreational opportunities, and contributing to the overall balance of regional ecosystems
Freshwater and lakes play a vital role in sustaining life on Earth, supporting ecosystems, human
civilizations, and various economic activities. The importance of freshwater and lakes can be

Dispersal perpendicular to span impact = 21 KN/ 𝑚2
= 0.84 + 2 x 0.065 (T.L + L.L) Bare pressure = 89.95 KN/𝑚2 (Is safe for
= 0.97 m S.B.C of 150 KN/𝑚2)
Dispersal in span direction
= 4.57 + 2 x t IX. MOMENT CALCULATION
t = 0.065
= 4.57 + 2 x 0.065 1. Top Slab:
= 4.7 m F.E.M due to Dead Load = 20.75 x 8.5 x 8.5/12
= 124.93 KNm.
P/A = 350/ 4.7 x 0.97 F.E.M due to Live Load = 95.96 x 8.5 x 8.5/12
= 76.771N/𝑚2 = 577.76 Knm. Total F.E.M = 702.69 KNm
(25 % of 76.77 KN/𝑚2) Mid span moment due to dead load = 20.75 x 8.8 x8.5/8 =
187.41 KNm. Mid span moment due to Live load = 95.8.5
Total Load : x 8.5/8 = 134.6 KNm.
D.L + L.L = 20.75 + 95.96=116.7125 KN/𝒎𝟐s Total mid span moment due to live load = 866.66 KNm.
= 0.123 N/mm2
Moment at junction is same as slabs hence same tensile bars shall continue.
RA= ((12 x 4.25) / 2) + (1/2) x 85 x 4.25 x (1/3)
= 25.5 + 60.21
= 85.71KN
RD = ((12 x 4.25) / 2) + 85 x 4.25 x 1/3
= 25.5 + 120.42
= 145.92 KN
S.F @ deff from
D = RD - (85 + 29.65) / 2 x 0.442 - 12 x 0.442
= 145.92 – 113.83
= 32.09 KN
Shear Stress
= (32.09 x 103) / (1000 x 750)
= 0.0428 N/mm2 < 0.10 N/mm2
Hence, Safe.
