. In this research, a study of a model of reinforced concrete elevated
water tank, with capacity of 900 cubic meters, supported with
frame system is carried out using finite element method (FEM).
The liquid mass contained in the container is model
ed as the sum of
two separated messes i.e. impulse mass and convective mass
following the recommendations of Eurocode 8 , 2006, for cases full
container. The second ones Gareane2011 method . The soil is
modeled using (FEM) with energy absorbent boundaries (dampers)
to prevent the combination of earthquakes waves.
This research includes analyzing and designing of high water
tanks using elastic method. Also, analyzing the structural
supporting system using the Second Equivalent Static Method, then
analysis by using Linear Dynamic Method - Response Spectra
