Construction of eight prestressed concrete tanks
Watertightness was foremost reason to choose prestressed concrete for tanks of 430,000 gal each and 50 ft internal diam; tank base of prestressed concrete 10 in. thick, increases to 2 ft round periphery; height of wall 34 ft 7 in., thickness 10 1/2 in.; domed roof carries precast concrete units; procedure of prestressing; connection of wall to base.
