Ferrocement water storage tanks are constructed using ferrocement plates of 25 mm – 30 mm thick. The structures are as strong as steel plates and are completely waterproof. This water tank is prepared by a simplified process in modifying the cement mortar as flowable in nature without compromising on its strength properties so that the process will eliminate the requirement of highly skilled person of artisan type and also would be highly cost effective.This material is developed for storage of water particularly for rural housing sector and also for all residential applications.
