Site Challenges:

–Water tank required at the top of a hillock (natural elevation) with poor access of vehicles

–High cost of execution in RCC due to  Requirement of construction of road for RMC trucks and vehicles

–Time taken in RCC due to site issues would exceed 120 days due to site condition

Solution:

–Use GRP panel water tank for meeting the project timeline, with a permanent, cost effective and fast solution

Design:

–270KL tank capacity

–GRP Tank 3m high

–External reinforcement

–Galvanised skidbase

Execution:

–Design, delivery & Installation completed in 45 days

–No requirement of road

Site Challenges:

–Water tanks required at Terrace level of multi-storey high-rise residential complex

–Required Installation time of GRP tank – within a few weeks. This was not possible using RCC structural tank which would take a few months.

– Suggested to have light weight tank at terrace level on site considering safety reasons – Weight of GRP tank is 1/10^th of RCC tank weight, it was finalised as it was much safer for the terrace slab load.

Solution:

–Use GRP pre-fabricated water tank for a long lasting, cost effective, and low weight at structure.

– Fast execution – installation completion within a week.

Site Challenges:

-Difficulty in installing RCC tank due to space constraints.

-Terrace structured concrete slab not able to withstand the RCC water tank load due to modifications in design structure.

-Terrace level existing RCC column would be clashing with RCC tank structure.

Solution:

–Use GRP prefabricated water tank for a long lasting, cost effective in a flexible manner without clashing with column structure.

Other advantages: light in weight & enhanced water capacity within the existing space availability.

Design:

–49 KL tank capacity

–GRP Tank 2m high

–External reinforcement

–Painted skidbase

Execution:

–Design, delivery & Installation completed in 45 days
