Use four 3/16-in. (4.8mm) welds to secure tank to perimeter beams
Check transverse perimeter beams;
The transverse perimeter beams support relatively little of the tanks dead weight, but resist the overturning
reaction. This reaction was previously calculated to be Pu = 20.7k (92.1KN). These beams were sized in
the gravity load design as W10x22' and will be checked here. It is conservatively assumed that the beams
s
support only the overturning seismic reaction.
The maximum moment occurs at mid span as;

Keep W10x22 (W254mmX1.05KN/m) for transverse beams
Check longitudinal beams;
The longitudinal beams support all of the tanks dead weight (transferred to it from the interior perimeter
beams), and also resist the overturning reaction of Pu = 20.7k (92.1KN). These beams were sized in the
gravity load design as W10x22' and will be checked here.

Per load combination ` = 0.9D + E'the center load P1u in figure J2-4 is reduced to an uplift load of;

By inspection, this reduces the end reactions and the maximum moment acting within the beam. Therefore,
the W10x22 is still adequate.
Keep W10x22 for longitudinal beams
Design transverse beam to column connection;
The worst case beam reaction is Ru/2 = 20.7k/2 = 10.4k (46.3KN). By inspection, the same single plate
connection used for the other beam to beam or beam to column connections is adequate.
Use two 7/8-in. (22.2mm) φA325-N bolts with 1/4-in. (6.4mm) single plate and 3/16-in. (4.8mm)
