TYPICAL PROJECTTHE GOAL:Seismically resilient systemSEISMIC DILEMA?If funding is limited and seismic loads add to the totaldesign load, do you have to build a smaller Reservoir?THE CHALLENGE:Utilize a design approach that minimizes seismic loadsEarthquakes and Water Storage Reservoir Design

SEISMIC DESIGN PARAMETERS WE CANCONTROLIntensity of ground shaking, acceleration– Site specific history, but low rate of returnReservoir layout (buried, above grade, plandimensions, depth)– What impact does reservoir shape have on seismic sloshingloadsSite selection and geotechnical conditions– How do different foundation types resist seismic sloshingand inertia loadsEarthquakes and Water Storage Reservoir Design

ABOVE GROUND vs BELOW GROUNDObservation:Buried reservoir seismic for 40% lessEarthquakes and Water Storage Reservoir Design

PLAN DIMENSIONS (L & W)HL 30-ftObservation:In order to get a reduction in load, impractical reservoirsize is requiredEarthquakes and Water Storage Reservoir Design

DEPTH (HL)180%80%0%L 100-ftObservation:Depth plays a significant role in seismic loadConsider larger footprint, shallower depthEarthquakes and Water Storage Reservoir Design

FOUNDATION SYSTEMSSite geology– Quality of below ground soils– Stability, landslide, groundwaterSensitivity to ground movement / settlement– Water tightnessTwo common foundation systems– Slab on grade, mat foundation– Deep foundations (piers, piles)Earthquakes and Water Storage Reservoir Design

MAT FOUNDATIONVertical loads to soil via contact area of matHorizontal loads to soil via friction over area of matEarthquakes and Water Storage Reservoir Design
