|   Waldorf 'Multi-Column Tank'
in Water Towers The multi-column water tank is most economical design and according to company propaganda, it's also the most efficient. Most of these have access ladders on the tower and a catwalk and handrail around the tank. These are usually the towers a community installs after they have outgrown their riveted tank. These were postwar favorites with subdivisions and suburbs all across the country. posted by:  tiki-4 location: Maryland date listed: 10/22/2005 last visited: never |

AKA "Big Mamas and Motherships"
We haven't come across any literature using the term "mothership" but we have heard variations of Big Mama used by staff members. Clyde Burns of Huntsville, Texas, a man who has erected, dismantled and reassembled tanks for forty years, informs us that larger water spheres are more correctly called water spheroids. These usually hold 200,000 gallons and up. Within this group are the Torospherical Tanks. posted by: tiki-4 location: Maryland date listed: 10/22/2005 last visited: 6/21/2008 |
