In 2012 we built this large (9mX5mX3m) reinforced concrete septic tank. this will provide a sewage solution for the new building for the Bukavu Bible College (DR Congo) which we plan to put up in 2014/2015

Just a question; and not a criticism: why casting and not cinder blocks? Blocks are a hell of a lot cheaper and a lot faster. Your motivation for casting was....? I just want to know for future use.

Casting is actually better than blocks because the cement tends to crack and leave holes due to the climate changes.

You can't get blocks in Dr Congo

You are using a really fluid concrete mixture, that can impair structural strength of the final structure. Greetings, Jeff

How did you make the cover?

It was made as a separate reinforced concrete block with 2 blocks set in to it that can be lifted out to allow someone to go into the tank. (very important to first lower a container down into the tank a number of times to lift out the toxic gas which is heavier than air)
