PCA Tables for circular and rect tank walls

PCA Tables for circular and rect tank walls

PCA Tables for circular and rect tank walls

(OP)
I am trying to analyze a siesmic soil load on a tank wall. The load distribution will be an inverted triangle. The PCA tables cover only std triangular load dist with the highest load at the bottom of the wall. Does anyone know of a pub that has load coefficients for an inverted triangle?

Thanks for the help,

T.

When you say 'the PCA tables' - do you mean the 2002 PCA 'design of liquid contining concrete structures for earthquake'?

No, these are the standard pca tables which supply coefficients to calculate moments, shears, ring tensions etc.
