Ground supported tanks are important components of lifeline and industrial facilities as it is used to storewater and other liquids such as petroleum product, liquefied natural gas, chemical fluid and wastage of different forms inhuge capacities. In this paper a parametric study on ground rested circular RC tank is carried out considering differentheight to diameter ratio for different capacities. The seismic analysis of tank has been performed considering water massin two parts as impulsive mass and convective mass suggested by GSDMA guidelines. The response of tank has beencompared in form of Time period in impulsive and convective mode, Design horizontal seismic coefficient, Base shear,Base moment and Hydrodynamic pressure due to impulsive and convective mode. From the results, it has been found thatbase shear, base moment and hydrodynamic pressure on wall are increases with increasing ratio of maximum depth ofwater to the diameter of tank (h/D)
