Dear all,
I would like to model a tank and to calculate the anchoring loads.
I would like to include my hydrostatic pressure inside my tank to have a more realistic model.
What type of primary load should I put for this load please ? I tried dead load because this load is present everytime. I tried live load to test and it has an impact on the reaction loads.
Should I put this loas into fluid load ? And what is fluid load into staadpro please ?
The ASCE 7-10 is not very clear for me acccording to this type of load.
Thank you so much for your future answers.
Dimitri
