Precast sectional wells and roof allow for uneven reservoir settlement
Concrete storage basin for 7,000,000 gal in New Orleans, La, has relatively thin precast concrete slabs in both walls and roof; former are surrounded by earthfill cofferdam that seals leakage and furnishes some resistance to hydrostatic pressure; this unusual structure is expected to reduce cracking of reservoir on unstable soil; reservoir measures 309 by 383 ft inside vertical walls; interior clear height, 14 ft.
