"With increasing world-wide investment in the construction of water treatment plants, sewage works, water storage systems and oil and petrochemical complexes, the practical value of simplified design methods for concrete tanks is obvious. The second edition of this book presents solutions to many of the practical problems involved in the analysis and design of tanks and grew, in part, from the author's work as a member of the American Concrete institute technical committee on circular prestressed structures. " "This book will be an immediately productive design aid in any civil engineering design office. "--BOOK JACKET.
