This work theoretically investigates the nonlinear behaviour of
reinforced concrete dee aimed topcantilever beams with concentrated loads
at their free ends The study is aimed to in investigate the behaviour
and respnse of such deep cantilever bea
ms, and to help structural
engineers to design and adopt appropriate reinforcement detailing of
such elements. A complete review of literature on this subject is
made.
In this research, the danger and the horizontal force effects on the
engineering structures will be explained, and we will focus on the
horizontal winds force effects on the bridges, the high buildings and
special engineering structures. The resul
ted loads will be analysed and
evaluated in both static and dynamic methods. In the end of the
research, two practical examples will be shown for the two methods.
. 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 study aims at conducting a comparative study between the
Pseudostatic Approach that is based on the limit equilibrium theory
and the Dynamic Analysis using to the finite element theory using
Geostudio software.
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
