Brine Tank Design

[jfusilloPE]

Anyone out there in EB world ever design a brine tank using cast-in-place concrete.

I have a junior engineer asking me about it, and my only good answer is "I usually go the FRP route", with the follow-up question, "why would they want a cast-in-place brine tank?"

I'd start with ACI 350 as a good design reference. Design would be very conservative for corrosion protection and formwater tightness.
