Liquid storage tanks resting on the ground has main structural elements of the base block, aspect wall and roof. The walls of the tanks are subjected to hydrostatic pressure of the liquid contained within the tank in the static condition and hydrodynamic pressure of the liquid in the dynamic condition of the bottom block. The dynamic condition of the bottom block because of horizontal ground acceleration depends on the contact condition of the bottom block with the ground. Hydraulic pressure exerted on the walls depends on the contact of walls with a base block, roof and therefore the nature of the wall like rigid or versatile. To check the behaviour of cylindrical tanks caused by dynamic loading a finite part technique was used. Exploitation of the FEM the flexibleness of the shell wall and therefore the liquid properties will be enclosed. Because of the complicated nature of theoretical approaches particularly once considering the dynamic nature of structures, the employment of package becomes vital. To model this method the ABAQUS finite element package was used. The theoretical calculations are done using relative codes and guidelines. Finally, the moments computed in code provisions and package are compared.
