Mxy or Myz = torsion or twisting moments for plate or wall in the x-y
and y-z planes, respectively.
Mtx = Mx + |Mxy|
Mty = My + |Mxy|
However, if the calculated Mtx < 0,
Mtx = Mx-|Mxy|
Mty = My - |Mxy|
However, if the calculated Mtx > 0,

Three wall forming T-Shape:
If the unloaded third wall of the unit is disregarded, or its
stiffness considered negligible, moments in the loaded walls
would be the same L coefficients.
If the third wall is assumed to have infinite stiffness, the
corner is fixed and the F coefficients apply.
The intermediate value representing more nearly the true
condition can be obtained by the formula.

Intersecting Walls:
If intersecting walls are the walls of square cells,
moments at the intersection are maximum when any
two cells are filled and the F coefficients in Tables 1,
2, or 3 apply because there is no rotation of the joint.
If the cells are rectangular, moments in the longer of
the intersecting walls will be maximum when two
cells on the same side of the wall under consideration
are filled, and again the F coefficients apply.

Intersecting Walls:
Maximum moments in the
shorter walls adjacent to
the intersection occur
when diagonally opposite
cells are filled, and for this
condition the L
Coefficients apply.

The stress on the soil due to weight of the tank and water is
generally low (~0.6 kg/cm2 for a depth of water of 5m)
But it is not recommended to construct a tank directly on
unconsolidated soil of fill due to serious differential
settlement.
Soft weak clayey layers and similar soils may consolidate to
big values even under small stresses.
It is recommended to support the tank on columns and isolated
or strip footings if the stiff soil layers are at a reasonable depth
from the ground surface (see Figure 1).
