Case 1 ) Empty on tank side & soil pressure and wind on other side of retaining wall.
In this case cantilever wall has been analyzed for the active earth pressure from one side only,
while checking for the stability, wt of earth from both the side has been considered.
Case 2 )
Hydrostatic pressure due to stored liquid during spillages or tank burst conditions.
In this case cantilever wall has been analyzed for the submerged liquid pressure from tank side
only passive earth pressure on the other side of retaining wall to the possible extent of 2/3
height of overburden soil. While checking for the stability, wt of earth from both the side & wt of
liquid form tank side has been considered.
The stability and base pressure check for the retaining wall have been carried out to decide the
size and other details of the assumed retaining wall. The structural calculations are carried out later.
