Abstract |
This manual is designed to aid in the construction of a wire-reinforced, jar-shaped ferrocement water tank. This method is well-suited for tanks with a volume of 600 L or more. It was written for people without extensive engineering or construction experience. Therefore, certain tasks, such as determining the shape of the tank, have been simplified. This manual was finalised through a participatory community-based training in Barangay Saloy, Calinan District, Davao City, Philippines July 27–August 1, 2005 in partnership with CRS/Philippines and the Josefa Segovia Foundation. |
