ZipaTankTM Foundation
The ZipaTankTM can be assembled on a conventional tank foundation, such as an infilled concrete ring beam or slab. A flexible gasket material is be placed between the tank floor and the tank foundation and sealed at the floor edge to prevent slurry or water contacting the underside of the tank floor area.
Xstrata Technology will assist in the design of the tank foundation, by providing general arrangements for the tank foundation, and design loadings.
ZipaTankTM Transport and Assembly
All ZipaTankTM modular components are fabricated in modular sections designed for transport in standard 40 ft shipping containers. Assembly does not require specialised labour and an installation supervisor will be provided by Xstrata Technology. No special tools are required for the assembly of the ZipaTankTM, as the tank can be assembled with a mobile crane.
