水塔的抗震设计是按照现行的《工业与民用建筑抗震设计规范》(TJ11-78)(以下简称《抗震规范》)进行的。由于水塔的结构型式、高度、材料等种类较多,所以它们的抗震性能(动力性能)也不完全相同,因此、在《抗震规范》中很难用一种计算方法适用于各种水塔,也很难在规范中详细的给予全面的明确规 Seismic design of water towers is in accordance with the current “Code for seismic design of industrial and civil buildings” (TJ11-78) (hereinafter referred to as “seismic code”). Due to the structure type, height, material and other types of towers, their seismic performance (dynamic performance) is not exactly the same, so it is difficult to apply a calculation method to various towers in the “Seismic Specifications” It is difficult to give full details of the rules in the specification
