Special rigs help build tank
Techniques used to build 2-million-gal reservoir in Tennessee; composite tank is built up in several layers; steel shell is erected at center, which is then encased in several inches of concrete; after concrete has cured, prestressing wire is wrapped in close tight loops around outside to give structure rigidity; finally protective layer of concrete is applied; tank requires no internal supports.
