5.2.4 Connection of several tanks
Two or more tanks are connected
via
the
assembly
means of GARANTIA special seals
and basic pipes (to be provided at
construction site).
The apertures must be drilled to the
corresponding size using only the
GARANTIA special crown bit. It must be ensured that the distance between the tanks is at least 500 mm
(19.7 inch). The pipes must project at least 200 mm (7.9 inch) into the tanks.
5.3
Insertion and filling
The tanks must be inserted, impact-free, into
the
prepared
trench
equipment. To avoid deformities, the tank is
filled 1/3 with water before backfilling the
excavation.
Afterwards the surrounding (round grain
gravel, max. grain size 8/16) is then filled in
layers of max. 30 cm (11.8 inch) and is
compacted.
The individual layers as well as the
medial support column must be well-
compacted (manuel tamper). Damage to
the tank must be avoided during compaction.
Mechanical compaction machines must not
be used under any circumstances. The
surrounding towards the trench must be at
least
100 mm
(3.9 inch)
distance between each wall an the tank must
be ≥ 100 mm (3.9 inch).
Backfill material
Split (Type B) consisting of max. 16 mm stone
particles capable of solid compaction
Round grain gravel to the top of the dome, top
soil to the top of the shaft and lid
(max. grain size 8/16)
Sand mixed with water
Good garden soil (sandy loam)
Fine clay soil
