Reinforced pedestal for industry tank in Uruguay (ACI)
Tank anchoring in Uruguay uses segmental columns built of truss with double-L profiles; original rivets are modeled as bolts. The foundation block is assessed for the actual loading with the real reinforcement.
Industrial tank anchoring in Uruguay uses double L profiles with original riveted joints, now modeled with equivalent bolts for structural analysis. This substitution maintains joint stiffness while reflecting modern assembly methods. Engineers should verify bolt equivalency in strength and shear to the original rivets for accurate simulation. The reinforced concrete foundation block is checked in 3D analytical model, taking into account the exact geometry with inclined sides and the real reinforcement.
The model has been replicated based on the existing structure.
In this case, the model in IDEA StatiCa 3D Detail considers only supplementary reinforcement that prevents concrete cone breakout.
