The main aim of this study is to analyse the elevated water tank and comparing the forces created on elevated water tank in different seismic zones due to earthquake. Any civil engineering structures are conceived keeping in mind its intended use, the materials available, cost and aseptic, considerations.The analysis of elevated water tank is performed on impulsive mode and convective mode using the code IS 1893 (part 2) 2002 and also we considered the forces in both tank full condition and tank empty condition. From this study the forces acting on elevated water tank due to seismic forces are calculated for all the zones and also the Base shear, Base moment values are compared from zone I to zone IV. The Horizontal forces due to seismic and wind effect are also calculated. Then finally the values are represented in the form of tables and graphs.
