Will this result in an unbraced flange in compression instead of tension?

Subject: FW: AWWA D100-05 3.5.1 question
AWWA (Eq 3-35) on page 35 provides formula for required section modulus for Girder.
My question is: Can this girder be provided either inside or outside the tank? Does it have to be on outside the tank?
I would like to provide the girder inside the tank to avoid interference with the ladder/stair.
Thanks!
