Best Answer

The main difference between the old and new code is the method of design-earlier one is based on Working stress method and the present one is based on Limit states Design! Hence comparisons are difficult to make. Since you are conversant with IS 456, it may not be difficult for you to follow. I do not have the new codes here-I saw the Draft- but think that the tables for BM calculation remain the same. You have to use LSM equations for the design instead of WSM. Note that crack control is imp. in such structures. Hence the code prescribes Clauses for the same.

How do you size a vacuum breaker for a tank?

This depends on the design of the tank for under pressure. The vaccum breaker is then sized to slightly under the design under pressure. So in this case, the vaccum breaker will open before the design under pressure is reached to protect the tank.

You must have a pressure relief valve. I believe it is code nationally. I don't think you can buy a hot water tank w/o one. Expansion tank needed also if water meter has backflow preventer, check with local water authority if it does.


Why use working stress method for water tank design?

i think , because water tanks are more vulnerable structures and plus the tank is sometime overfilled and sometime empty, the pressure inside is so varying, its needs more safety precautions and as we all know working stress method assumes more safety factor than limit state design, which is an economical design, we prefer to use working stress method...
