A water tank weighing 68000kg is supported by four vertical pipe columns with fixed ends, as shown in the figure below. The bending stiffness El of each column is 5.85x10° kg.cm?, and the column height is 7.30 m. Omit the distributed mass of the column, try to calculate the period of free vibration of the water tank in the horizontal direction.

A water tank weighing 68000kg is supported by four vertical pipe
columns with fixed ends, as shown in the figure below. The bending
stiffness El of each column is 5.85x10° kg.cm?, and the column
height is 7.30 m. Omit the distributed mass of the column, try to
calculate the period of free vibration of the water tank in the
horizontal direction.
