The Landmark Difference
There are several variations of steel roof designs available for a GST.
Butt welded self-supporting dome roofs have no internal structural support members and result in the highest quality, low maintenance internal surface that performs exceptionally well in the vapor zone.
Welded Steel Ground Storage Types
Ground storage tanks have 2 primary sub-categories:
Reservoir (GST-RES)
Diameter is larger than height. This tank style provides economical storage when located on high ground that is directly adjacent to the service area. They may also be configured with pumps that run continuously to pressurize a water system.
Standpipe (GST-STP)
Height is greater than diameter. The upper part of the tank is typically used as operating storage for a gravity fed application. The lower range is used to elevate the upper range, or it may provide reserve water storage.
