Leak Test For a 4 basin SBR Tank

(OP)
Good morning all,

I apologize I am new to the engineering/inspection side of construction I have a Above ground square 4 Basin SBR tank which is almost complete and the GC wants to start leak testing 2 Basins are complete and the other 2 are not.

Questions are
1. Should we wait till the other walls are poured.
2.What is the fill rate
3.What does the test consist of.

Any and all comments are much appreciated.

RE: Leak Test For a 4 basin SBR Tank

1) Check with the designer of the tank.
2) Check the specifications, if there are any. If not, refer to 1).
