1.01 SUMMARY
A. Work includes:
1. This section specifies the design and construction of an AWWA D110, Type 1, strand-wrapped circular prestressed concrete tank, furnishing, installation, testing, and disinfection. The tank shall consist of: foundation, underdrain system, concrete membrane floor slab, cast-in-place concrete core wall, cast-in-place concrete roof support columns and drop panels, flat cast-in-place concrete roof slab, and all associated appurtenances. The core wall shall be vertically post-tensioned with thread bars, prestressed circumferentially with machine-wrapped seven-wire galvanized strand, and protected with several coats of shotcrete. The foundation shall be constructed with continuous shallow concrete spread footings below the perimeter wall. The column footings shall be spread footings that are cast on top of the concrete floor. The concrete floor shall be constructed with a concrete slab on grade.
2. In the event of a discrepancy between this section of the Specifications and any other section of the Specifications, this section shall govern.
3. The Tank Contractor shall furnish all labor, materials, tools, and equipment necessary to design, construct, disinfect, and test the prestressed concrete tank.
