Water tank design- bolts and distances
(OP)
I am designing a corrugated iron water tank where multiple sheets need to be joined together. How to determine the shear flow/stress in the tank walls and therefore the size and spacing of bolts required to keep it together..?
Once the hoop stress is determined in the tank walls..where to next?

How big must your tank be ? Do you intend to hold potable water ?
