Water Tank floor & roof beam support
Water Tank floor & roof beam support
(OP)
I'd like the water tank to be supported on the floor slab and also at the roof I-beam with each contributing half to the support capacity (the roof I-beam would have bars going down carrying half the tank load). How do I make sure the roof I-beam and floor slab has roughly equal load (or least neither having the full load).. any instrument to do that? or perhaps I can put the water tank on a weight scale permanently? How do you do it?

Some kind of springs, top and bottom, could conceivably dampen the differences but I haven't thought through all that.

I like to debate structural engineering theory -- a lot. If I challenge you on something, know that I'm doing so because I respect your opinion enough to either change it or adopt it.
