Drawing Study for Septic Tank

This construction video tutorial presented by Sami Ullah, the renowned civil engineer, will guide you to how to drawing study for septic tank.

Plan of Septic Tank – We have taken the scale – ¼ inch = 1 feet.

The length of the septic tank is 10 feet and 3 inches. The breadth of the septic tank is 6 feet. The boundary walls or outer walls are 9 inches. The internal walls which are constructed in the septic tank are equal to 4.5 inches (half of external walls). We have three sections. Length of each section is 2 feet 9 inches; second one is also 2 feet 9 inches and the last one is also 2 feet 9 inches.

The internal length of the septic tank without boundary wall is 4 feet 6 inches. The cross section or section at X – X view for septic tank will show you the same two 9 inches walls, the internal walls with thickness equal to 4.5 inches.

The cross sectional view will show you the PCC which is 1:2:4. This is the M15 grade of concrete. There are 9 inches external walls. 0.5 is the thickness of the plaster, chips, walls and floor. The cross sectional view will show the RCC walls and concrete.

From the water closet, all the materials can come in and go from out pipe. Once it become full some materials can flow from outer side. Thickness of the top slab is 5 inches. There is a cover. It can be opened from its cover. If there is any issue, it can be opened from cover.

There are holes between internal walls. The height of septic tank is internal i.e. without the PCC and the top slab. The height is 5 foot and 6 inches. This is most simple to study the septic tank drawing.
