About Project
The project involved the design review, importation coordination, site assembly and commissioning of a GRP sectional water storage tank system for an industrial facility in Tarlac.
The client required a reliable bulk water-storage solution that could be installed efficiently on site, provide long-term corrosion resistance, and support the facility’s operational water requirements. A modular GRP tank was selected due to its strength, low maintenance requirements, ease of transport, and suitability for above-ground installation.
The project covered the complete delivery cycle—from engineering review and tank sizing to importation support, on-site assembly, interconnection works, testing, and turnover. The completed tank now serves as a dedicated water-storage facility for the site’s domestic and utility-water requirements.
- Tank Type: GRP Sectional Panel Water Tank
- Tank Capacity: Approximately 120 m³
- Approximate Tank Dimensions: 8.0 m × 4.0 m × 4.0 m
- Panel Material: Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP)
- Panel Configuration: Modular sectional panels with internal bracing
- Tank Support: Reinforced concrete pedestal and beam foundation
- Water Service: Domestic and utility water storage
- Inlet / Outlet Connections: Flanged steel / GI interconnections
- Accessories Included: Access ladder, top handrails, manhole, level fittings, drain and overflow connections
- Installation Scope: Design review, importation coordination, assembly, piping connection, testing and commissioning
- Testing Performed: Leak test, fill test, level verification and commissioning checks
Our Client’s Challenge
The client required a water-storage system that could be installed within the site’s available footprint while meeting the required storage volume, structural stability, and long-term serviceability.
The project also involved several practical challenges:
- Need for a large-capacity water tank within a limited installation area
- Requirement for a modular system that could be transported and assembled efficiently
- Exposure to outdoor conditions requiring corrosion-resistant materials
- Need to coordinate imported tank components with local civil and piping works
- Requirement for a stable support foundation and accurate anchor layout
- Need for efficient site assembly with proper sealing and alignment of panels
- Requirement for leak-free commissioning before final turnover
Our Approach And Solution
Solcrest reviewed the site requirements, target storage capacity, available footprint, support arrangement, and service application before finalizing the tank configuration.
A modular GRP sectional tank system was selected to provide flexibility in transport, ease of site assembly, and durability under local operating conditions. Solcrest coordinated the importation of tank panels, structural accessories and connection components, while also ensuring compatibility with the civil foundation and piping provisions prepared on site.
The project scope covered:
- Review of required tank capacity and service application
- Verification of available site area and installation conditions
- Design coordination for tank dimensions and support requirements
- Importation coordination for GRP tank panels and accessories
- Review of foundation layout and pedestal locations
- Delivery planning and material handling coordination
- On-site assembly of modular GRP tank panels
- Installation of structural supports, tie rods and bracing members
- Installation of sealing materials, fasteners and jointing components
- Installation of access ladder, top handrails and manhole assembly
- Installation of inlet, outlet, overflow and drain connections
- Alignment and tightening of tank panels and framing components
- Turnover of commissioning and maintenance records
- Inspection of support elevations and tank levelness
- Initial leak inspection and water-fill testing
- Final system checks and commissioning
- Turnover of installation records and operating recommendations
Throughout the assembly works, close attention was given to panel alignment, uniform tightening, gasket integrity, and proper installation of bracing members to ensure the structural stability and leak-tightness of the tank.
Project Outcome
The GRP sectional water-storage tank was successfully assembled, tested and commissioned within the planned project schedule.
The completed installation provided the client with a durable and space-efficient above-ground storage system suitable for continuous water service. The modular design also allowed efficient transport and on-site erection while maintaining a professional and orderly installation.
Following leak testing and commissioning checks, the tank was placed into service and integrated into the facility’s water system. The project demonstrated Solcrest’s capability to deliver end-to-end water-storage solutions, covering design coordination, importation, assembly, installation support and final commissioning.
