Engineered Water Storage Systems

Tank Body Engineering

The 100,000-Gallon model of Pioneer Water Tank is a three stacked panel system with increased roof trussing and wall panel enforcement. Wall panel sheets are pre-curved for each tank size to achieve the required circumference. 

Tank walls are comprised of three stacked rings bolted together with reinforcement. An overflow outlet is placed in one upper wall panel to account for design seismic sloshing effects. The overflow outlet height varies by tank size.

The XLE 50/03 Pioneer Water Tank is designed in accordance with AS2304 “Water storage tanks for fire systems” which references AS1170-2 Structural design actions Part 2 – Wind actions. The wind design parameters are:

The wind design parameters are:

  • Importance level 2 (Normal Structures)
  • 25 year design life (200 year recurrence interval)
  • Region B
  • Terrain Category 3
  •  Structure height < 5 metres (16.4ft)
  •  Topographical and shielding factors = 1.0
  •  Basic regional wind velocity = 51.8ms-1 (115.9mph)
  • Resulting design pressure = 1.00kPa (20.9psf)

Design Seismic Loads

This tank is designed to withstand an effective seismic acceleration coefficient of up to 0.7 (refer Tables 2 & 3) and the seismic loads developed as per AS2304 which has the same methodology as AWWA D 103-97 “Factory Coated Bolted Steel Tanks for Water Storage”. 

Design Roof Live or Snow Loads

Pioneer Water Tanks XLE-S series tanks are designed to withstand a maximum uniformly distributed live load or snow load of 1.0kPa (20psf) or a concentrated load of 1.4kN (300lbs) with the addition of internal and external columns and diagonal truss bracing. 

Roof support structures (trusses) are designed to accommodate maintenance and construction footfalls in the vicinity of the roof trusses. Roof activity shall be limited to installation and/or maintenance purposes. Roof structures shall not be altered or re-roofed without professional engineering
advice.
