Beneath the ground, there are DN400 concrete drainage pipes buried at a depth of 2.5m; can a 20t tank be placed on the surface?

I would like to ask everyone: there is a DN400 concrete drainage pipe buried 2.5 meters underground in this area. We are planning to renovate this space to install more equipment. Can a 20-ton tank be placed on the ground surface? Will it damage the pipe? ?
Have a design firm do the calculations for you. First, if no foundation is to be built, it’s necessary to check whether the bearing capacity of the existing ground layer is sufficient; otherwise, ground settlement may occur. If the bearing capacity is not enough, a foundation must be constructed, and the depth of foundation excavation also needs to be taken into consideration. Generally, this depth is sufficient
The design principle does not allow for intersections. Unless the ground pipe is rerouted.
