Concrete Overhead tank leakage problem
Posted: January 12th, 2015, 4:44 pm
Hi Everyone,
Newly constructed Overhead tank with a size of 4feet*4feet is in trouble. Leakage is at tank corner points. water comes out of the tank when we fill the tank. We constructed two tanks and on tank dimension is 4 feet lengthx4 widthx2.5 height and One tank capacity is 1000 litres. In one tank there is no leakage after we re-engineered. We cant understand why the leakage is at pipe positioned (shown in orange color) place where, 3 pipes coming outside and the gap between the two pipes are 4 inches. We did pakka plastering work during second time of re-engineering. After that also drop leakage comes out from the tank pipes.
tank bottom -concrete, above that chips has been placed and above that, plastering done.
tank Four sides- Bricks and plastering.
We do not know what to do, kindly suggest the theory of water pressure and pvc pipe - cement bondage.
Problem:
Tank corner side leakage, and pipe outlet side leakage
