<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />4.0 INSPECTION AND <br />EVALUATION METHODS <br />Section <br />4.0 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />4.1 Methods4.1.1 <br />The tank was evaluated on the interior and exterior in conformance with the <br />following: <br /> <br />a) General guidelines of AWWA Manual M42 Appendix C “Inspecting and <br />Repairing Steel Water Tanks, and Elevated Tanks for Water Storage”. <br /> <br />b) BSI “Procedures and Guidelines for Inspecting Existing Steel and Concrete <br />Water Storage Tanks”. <br /> <br />The inspection of the base metal and coatings on interior and exterior surfaces <br />included only areas accessible without scaffolding or special rigging. Where possible, <br />the base metal and coating on the interior wet surfaces were examined from a rubber <br />raft while the tank was being drained. <br /> <br />The overall structural condition of the tank was visually examined. <br /> <br />No structural analysis was done to determine if the tank design complies with the <br />AWWA D100-96 Standard for “Welded Steel Tanks for Water Storage”. However, any <br />observed non-conformance to the AWWA D100 standard is noted in this report. <br /> <br />Although compliance with OSHA regulations was not a part of this inspection, any <br />unsafe conditions or violations of current OSHA regulations that were observed are <br />noted in this report. <br /> <br />4.2 Examination <br />and Evaluation <br />Techniques <br />Some or all of the following procedures were performed as applicable: <br />4.2.1 Site Survey <br />The tank site was evaluated for proper drainage and conditions affecting access. <br />Also, the following site dimensions were obtained; distance to fence(s), power lines, <br />owner buildings, public property, private property/buildings, school/playgrounds, <br />public parks, and other property. <br /> <br />4.2.2 Foundations <br />The tank concrete foundation was visually examined for cracks, spalling condition of <br />grout, indications of distress or settlement, and elevation above grade. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />10
