What is injection grouting?
Grout is a material used to fill voids in concrete or tile structure. Grouting or Injection Grouting or Pressure Grouting invariably means the process of injecting grout into isolated pores or voids in a concrete or tile structure.Eg:- Injection grouting in a concrete water storage tank.
Can you apply wet concrete to dry concrete?
Yes, you can. You should clean the dry concrete with water and a brush first, and you should use a bonding agent (available pretty much anywhere you buy concrete) for optimal adhesion. You may also wish to add reinforcement such as rebar.
Should a sidewalk be made of cement or concrete?
Concrete is what you make a sidewalk from. To make concrete, you mix Portland cement, sand, gravel (aggregate) and water. The cement holds the aggregate together.
How thick should concrete walls be to hold 10000 gallons of water?
It depends on the depth of the water. The hydrostatic pressure increases with depth.
What is water to cement ratio?
Water/cement ratio law states that the strength of concrete is only dependent upon water/cement ratio provided the mix is workable.Strength of concrete primarily depends upon the strength of cement paste.Similarly, the strength of the paste increases with cement content and decreases with air and water content.
What holds back water for storage?
Earth or concrete/steel dams.
What are 4 resources provided by a habitat?
water, warmth, food storage
PH of water for making concrete?
The pH of water for making concrete is 6 to 8.The water should be free from organic matters.Sea water should not be used for making concrete.Potable water is used for making concrete.
Should you use salt water to mix concrete?
Mixing salt water with concrete is not advised. The concrete will not set up properly and will crumble very easily.
Will concrete pool cave in without water for a few weeks?
no, provided there is not a high water table. It can stay empty for 2-3 months
What should be the temperature of water in a vented storage vessel should be?
60
According to you which material is best for overhead water storage tank?
If you want to have overhead water storage tank for small capacity, then you should definitely go for PVC tank.
What is Most important component to determine the strength of a concrete mix?
The concrete mix should be a 5:1 Cement to water ratio. make sure you mix thoroughly when adding water. Look up "Concrete slump test"
What is the water proportion of self compacted concrete?
Water/Cement Ratio should not exceed 200 litres/m3 .

How much weight can you put on top of a 10000 gallon concrete water tank?
there is not nearly enough information provided to answer your question. it isn't important that it is a tank or that it is a water tank. what is important is the thickness of the concrete, the shape it makes, the amount and location of reinforcing steel inside the concrete, the type of concrete, the foundation and the soil the foundation is on, how high in the air the top of this tank is (has repercussions for seismic areas), etc.
