The long walls are designed as a cantilever and the short wall
as a slab fixed supported on the long walls. The bottom H/4
portion of the short wall is designed as a cantilever.

The stress on the soil due to the weight of the tank and water is
generally low (6t/m2 for depth of water of 5 m), but in spite of
that fact, it is not recommended to construct a tank directly on
unconsolidated fill as this may expose the tank to differential
settlement due to nonhomogeneous nature of the fill.
Strip footing, Pile footing, or raft are possible solution depend
on the soil characteristics at variable depth.
