FRP tank foundation
Thread Content
I saw that a piece of the foundation of the fiberglass tank had been deliberately knocked off. What is the reason for doing this? See the image for details:
It’s likely intended to remove internal water accumulation
The fiberglass-reinforced plastic tank is manufactured on-site; the bottom of the tank is made first. After it is completed, a water test is conducted to check for leaks. Since the bottom of the tank is embedded in the foundation, a piece of it is chiseled off in order to verify whether there are any leaks. For drainage.
Reply to 3# xlxuiin: So that’s how it is~ I’ve learned something new~
Can’t we embed steel pipes in the foundation as drainage pipes? It’s too uncivilized to do that
This foundation is temporary; it seems that once the bottom of the tank is ready, it will have to be removed entirely
This is what is generally done in places where sewage outlets are installed
I’ve learned a lot:victory: We’ve only just started using fiberglass tanks here; we have sewage tanks with a capacity of 700 cubic meters as well as water storage tanks with a capacity of 300 cubic meters. The foundation design is based on steel tanks – I’m not sure if that’s correct
