only ever shuttered with girders before,looks like you put the floor in first then raw bolt down some stays to hold the boards up,what thickness of wall would you have and would you put steel in? just on putting a precast channel in now,abit smaller than the one you had a quote for,think it works out around 100pound a foot for 6 feet wide

I would have a 9" wall,double mesh and 3/4" rebar horizontal every 18".

What thickness lid would you need over a 12' wide tank to take heavy traffic?

The shuttering I put a picture of above has a suspended feed passage 20' wide,i was told it had 12" of concrete and a shed load of rebar in the cast.
