In this study, finite element (FE) analysis was performed to evaluate the seismic performance of the water treatment plant, which is a major state of the art water treatment plant, to predict tensile cracks and compressive failure. The FE model simulation for two facilities of the water purification plant was made considering the initial conditions, boundary conditions and water effect. For the nonlinear dynamic analysis, seismic analysis was performed using ground acceleration. Tensile cracks and compressive failure are analyzed and the effects on the structures are analyzed. As a result of the analysis, tensile cracks can be predicted to occur in the main structure.
