The elevated liquid storing tank is the most effective storing competence used for domestic or even industrial rationale. The liquid storage tank is a lifeline structure & the water tank is important for water distribution distribution system. After the earthquakes the failure of large tanks are suspected & result of dynamic buckling. The water supply is available in earthquake affected region. The aim of behavior of elevated water tank of liquid storage during the earthquake caused the overturning movements, seismically induced by slosh waves. In this paper analysis to study the sloshing effect in elevated water storage tank. Key words: Elevated Water Tank, Sloshing Effect, Stadpro of Earthquake Loading

I. INTRODUCTION The elevated water tank are normally used to store the water for dome sting and firefighting purpose. The failure of these structure may cause serious hazard for people shortage of water or difficulty putting out fires during earthquakes. The elevated water tank is a large capacity tank. The elevated water tank under sloshing effect.” Sloshing” means the movement of water in water storage tank during the earthquake. The liquid storage tank is seismically safety it is importance. During the earthquakes the elevated water tank is severally damaged. The analysis of behavior of elevated water tanks the motion of water relative to the tank & motion of tank relative to the ground. Sloshing is defined as the periodic motion of the free liquid surface in a partially filled container. The basic problem of liquid sloshing involves the estimation of hydrodynamic pressure distribution, forces moments frequency of free liquid surface. The elevated water storage tank is a structure constructed sufficient height to cover the large area for supply of water, it is easy to analyses & study the behavior of structure during earthquake. As of today water tank are analyzed and designed by considering the earthquake forces and wind forces imposed over the water tank body. The response of water tank and staging for earthquake and wind loading is different for than for static loading. When earthquake forces and wind forces are developed the resulting horizontal trust which constitute a major load is of complex nature.
