Frequently Asked Questions
Does it cover seal welding too?
No — focused on net section tension. Seal weld design is separate.
Will it work for storage other than water?
It follows AWWA D-103 which is specific to water. For other liquids, use an industry-appropriate code.

What Bolted Tank Net Section Tension AWWA D-103 — Joint Capacity Excel calculates
Bolted Tank Net Section Tension AWWA D-103 — Joint Capacity Excel is an Excel-native engineering calculation tool built by 3D-LABS for structural, civil, and construction engineers designing buildings, foundations, pipe racks, silos, and infrastructure. It is used for sizing structural members, checking connections, designing foundations, and verifying seismic and wind load response. Every input is labelled and every output is traceable — the sheet is designed to be checkable, not a black box.
Codes and standards followed
Bolted Tank Net Section Tension AWWA D-103 — Joint Capacity Excel follows industry-standard Structural & Civil Engineering codes including IS 456, IS 800, IS 875, IS 1893, AISC 360, ACI 318, EN 1992, EN 1993, ASCE 7. Each formula is cross-referenced to the applicable code clause so your reviewer can trace calculations back to the standard.
If your project requires a different code base (e.g. converting an IS-code sheet to an ASME basis), we can produce a code-variant edition on request. Contact info@3d-labs.com for a variant quote.
