Site preparation & Installation :
Cut Slot Foundation
1. Material:
A ring beam foundation is made from reinforced concrete, which is essential for supporting the structural loads effectively.
2. Depth Considerations:
The depth of the ring beam is determined based on factors such as allowable soil-bearing pressures and topographical conditions. It is essential to analyze these variables to ensure the ring beam is appropriately designed for the site.
3. Sand Pad Requirements:
The sand pad should be level, stable, and free from sharp edges.
4. Design Considerations:
The foundation should be designed to accommodate various loads, including wind loads, seismic loads, and earthquake loads. These loads must be factored into the design to ensure the structure remains stable under all conditions.
The cut slot foundation is a key structural feature in GFS (Glass-Fused-to-Steel) and SST (Stainless Steel) tanks, ensuring stability and proper sealing during installation and operation.
Cut Slot Depth & Width: The slot is typically 170mm deep and 350mm wide, providing secure anchorage and preventing movement or shifting of the tank.
Periphery Placement: Located around the tank's perimeter, the slot helps evenly distribute weight and pressure, preventing localized stress and ensuring stability.
Secondary Concreting: After installation, concrete is poured into the slot to lock the tank in place, prevent settlement, and seal out moisture, safeguarding against corrosion and structural weakening.
Shubham Tanks proudly presents SECURESTORE™ Tanks, incorporating cutting-edge Microcoat technology for enhanced corrosion protection. This global-first tank technology provides unmatched durability, offering superior service life compared to traditional welded or concrete tanks.
Key Features of SECURESTORE™ Tanks:
● Innovative Micro-coat Technology:
Special quality micro-coat paints penetrate the steel surface, permanently sealing it, followed by multiple layers of top coats tailored to specific applications. This dual-layer coating system enhances corrosion resistance, ensuring long-lasting performance in even the harshest environments.
● Corrosion Resistance:
The unique micro-coat technology raises the nobility of the steel surface to 1.2, positioned between silver and gold on the corrosion scale, providing exceptional long-term corrosion resistance. Coating tests have shown durability for over 2000 hours of salt spray testing (SST), and it is ideal for aggressive applications, such as biogas storage.
● Rapid Construction and Easy Installation:
SECURESTORE™ Tanks are prefabricated in the factory with all steel plates and accessories ready for assembly, reducing onsite construction time. A jacking system elevates the structure without the need for cranes or scaffolding, allowing for faster, safer, and more efficient installation in all weather conditions.
● Environmentally Friendly:
The SECURESTORE™ technology is 100% sustainable and environmentally friendly, ensuring that the tanks meet high ecological standards.
● Superior Performance:
Coating pH range:
3–12, suitable for biogas and other aggressive environments.
Bending resistance:
Coatings remain intact even under extreme conditions, with bending resistance
up to 170° without cracking.
Longevity:
Designed for a service life of over 30+ years.
● Low Maintenance Costs:
Unlike concrete tanks, which require constant maintenance due to cracking and leaking, SECURESTORE™ Tanks require minimal upkeep, lowering long-term operational costs.
● Cost-Effective:
With faster construction times and easier installation than RCC tanks, SECURESTORE™ Tanks are more cost-effective than traditional concrete or welded tanks. The ease of assembly with fewer workers and machines ensures that the tanks are completed on time and within budget.
● Versatile Applications:
Available in capacities ranging from 50 m³ to 10,000 m³, these tanks are perfect for industries like Effluent & Sewage Treatment, Bio-digesters, Molasses, Ethanol, Slurry storage, and many others requiring ultra-large liquid storage.
