Original solution for rural water towers with capacity up to 300 cu m; tank is formed by 2 steel or reinforced concrete truncated cones assembled at their large base and held together by tensioned belt; because of method of attachment and stress applied during assembly, tank is always under tension, even when empty; this permits reduction of its wall thickness to a minimum.
