Thank you Mr. Lyn for the quick reply.The links are highly informative, but I was looking for seismic examples/calculations using real values of tank data.

I'm sure you were.

Like you, I don't know what those calculations would be.

You might try a tank fabricator who lives in an earthquake zone.
