E-Course New Year Greetings !! Sudhir K. Jain, IIT Kanpur E-Course on Seismic Design of Tanks/ January 2006 1

E-Course on Seismic Design of Liquid Storage Tanks January 16 – February 6, 2006 About the E-Course Sudhir K. Jain, IIT Kanpur E-Course on Seismic Design of Tanks/ January 2006 2

Welcome… n n Welcome to the second E-Course in India in Civil Engineering. First E-course was on IS 1893 (Part I): 2002, in January 2003. This presentation gives you an idea on conduct of the course. Your instructors: • Sudhir K Jain of IIT Kanpur • Durgesh Rai of IIT Kanpur • O R Jaiswal of VNIT Nagpur Sudhir K. Jain, IIT Kanpur E-Course on Seismic Design of Tanks/ January 2006 3

Conduct of Course n n The entire material will be divided into about eight lectures. The lectures will also cover IITK-GSDMA Guidelines for Seismic Design of Liquid Storage Tanks. n n This document is available on: http: //www. iitk. ac. in/nicee/IITK-GSDMA/EQ 08. pdf Please download this document and keep a hard copy for ready reference. Sudhir K. Jain, IIT Kanpur E-Course on Seismic Design of Tanks/ January 2006 4

About IITK-GSDMA Guidelines n n n This document is not a BIS code. BIS is considering it for IS 1893 (Part 2) of tanks It has two parts n n Part 1 contains Provisions & Commentary Part 2 gives six solved examples Sudhir K. Jain, IIT Kanpur E-Course on Seismic Design of Tanks/ January 2006 5

About IITK-GSDMA Guidelines n Part 1 is written in Code-like format. n n It gives Commentary of clauses, wherever necessary. It has two column format; Provisions on left and Commentary on right side n Consistent with present international practice of code writing Sudhir K. Jain, IIT Kanpur E-Course on Seismic Design of Tanks/ January 2006 6

About IITK-GSDMA Guidelines n International codes & research papers used in the development of this document, are given in Clause 0. 4 (p. 3), C 0. 5 (p. 4), and Commentary References (p. 54, 55). n n n These may be referred in these lectures also Some important references are given on next slide It is suggested that you keep them also with you Sudhir K.

Conduct of Course n Lectures will be posted to you by email, twice a week. n n n If needed, we may extend duration of the course by one week. During the course, some assignments will also be sent to you Assignment may ask you to: n n n Read some parts of the guidelines Answer some simple questions, or Solve some simple problems Sudhir K. Jain, IIT Kanpur E-Course on Seismic Design of Tanks/ January 2006 9

Homework Assignments n n To get maximum benefit from the course, you need to be regular with assignments. Answers to the homework problems will be supplied a few days later. n You may compare your solution with the supplied solution and grade yourself Sudhir K. Jain, IIT Kanpur E-Course on Seismic Design of Tanks/ January 2006 10

Questions n n You are encouraged to ask questions The following schedule for questions and answers will be followed: n n All questions about a lecture must be asked within three days of the lecture being sent All questions about an assignment must be asked within three days of the solution being provided. Sudhir K. Jain, IIT Kanpur E-Course on Seismic Design of Tanks/ January 2006 11

Questions n The above schedule for questions will help n n n Consolidate all the questions and address them in a systematic way. Participants to be regular in studying It may not be possible for us to answer questions after the course is over. n Hence, make sure you ask all your queries during the course. Sudhir K.
