Abstract : Water supply system is the important part of the society. This system has various stages to supply water from
source to population. One of the important stage is balancing tank which receives the water from main source under the gravity
flow or pressure flow and pumped to the next level. Analysis and design of such reservoir is important as any failure to
reservoir will directly affect on water requirement of community. An excel program has been made for analysis and design of
cantilever type retaining wall of balancing tank for various probable critical cases and load combinations. Effect of different
soil parameters such as cohesive and non cohesive soil around tank on wall stability has been studied which shows that
cohesive soil around the soil gives higher section of tank wall than non cohesive soil. Also the comparison made between IS
1893:1984 and IS 1893:Part3;2014 for cohesive soil and non cohesive soil. Uplift effect due to seepage and water bodies near
tank wall such as canal has been studied for static, earthquake analysis with seismic acceleration coefficient 0.15 for 5.5m and
6.5m height of tank wall. Effect of shear key on stability of tank wall studied for different soil parameters, uplift due to various
critical conditions, and height of tank wall. It is observed that when shear key provided, section size ultimately concrete
quantity reduces.
Index Terms—Balancing Tank, Cantilever Retaining Wall, Cohesive Soil, Non Cohesive Soil, Uplift.
