Why Prestressed Concrete?

Low-maintenance concrete with single-wire, high-strength prestressing offers a perfect combination of durability, flexibility, performance and value.

Lasting durability

  • Engineered with single-wire prestressing to assure a permanent cylindrical compression in the tank wall
  • Constructed of concrete and shotcrete to prevent any corrosion from liquid contents and the outside environment

Application flexibility

  • Can be designed and built to any customized dimension on almost any location
  • Can be used to store and treat a wide variety of liquids, including potable water, municipal and industrial wastewater, thermal fluids for renewable energy applications and other industrial fluids

Superior protection

  • Adaptable to a wide range of environmental design conditions
  • Has steel shell diaphragm and positive floor/wall connection to ensure watertight service

Cost efficiencies

  • Delivers unmatched value for liquid storage due to efficient use of steel and concrete
  • Requires virtually no maintenance over the life of the structure
  • Practically eliminates expenses of maintenance and facility downtime
