Description

Septic tanks are strong, versatile, and enable a wide range of installation possibilities, including shallow installations and multiple and serial tank configurations. In this presentation, we will learn more about tanks for septic and potable water applications. The risk of flotation due to the presence of groundwater above the bottom of the tank will also be addressed. The goal of this presentation is to prompt regulators, designers, and installers to think about tank placement, installation, and buoyancy for the installation of any tank, keeping best practices and safety in mind.  

After this session, attendees will be able to:

1. Define the function and importance of the septic tank.
2. Discuss best practices of tank installation.
3. Identify and apply anti-buoyancy principals.
4. Implement techniques learned in design, installation and O&M practices. 

Ideal Audience: Contractors and designers.
