All Rights Reserved.xiiiPrefaceThe purpose of this manual is to provide the water distribution system manager, operator, contractor, and consultant with information concerning steel tanks used for the storage of water during water production, treatment, and distribution. The manual covers

44、the planning, specification, construction, operation, and maintenance of steel tanks of riveted, welded, and bolted construction. This manual is not intended to be a technical commentary on American Water Works Association (AWWA) standards dealing with steel water-storage tanks; refer-ence is made t

45、o those standards to make the reader aware of their existence and appli-cation. ANSI/AWWA D101, Standard for Inspecting and Repairing Steel Water Tanks, Standpipes, Reservoirs, and Elevated Tanks for Water Storage, was last reaffirmed in 1986 and withdrawn as a standard in 1998, the year this manual

46、 was first published. That standard is included in this manual as appendix C.While the scope of this edition of the manual remains largely unchanged, updates have been made to the content throughout. This revised edition includes several new and many revised figures and tables, information on compos
