Concrete sleeper

[twizz]

Dose anyone know what kind of weight a concrete sleeper will carry? I have a slurry thank that I want to place a portable building over and was looking at using sleepers to put it on. The tank is 70 inch wide but the building will only be on the outside 12 inch.

How heavy is a train?!!

Guessing it’s more one way than the other due to the layout of reinforcement. But I’ve yet to break one.

I would be wary of using a sleeper that was only supported on the ends - they're designed to be supported along their length.

A neighbour has a tank slatted for cattle with them. Been there 20 years at least.

Made a run of them at work last year, were tested to 30t I think.
