I'm a bit scared!Now all you need is a second mortgage on the house to fill it
The other thread is discussing it but my bet is prices have seen their lowest point and will increase now. So do I brim it?! I dont know!

you can also use it as a containment area just incase the tank splits if you seal the bottom 2 rows of panels and uprights
dont try to use concrete or cement mix as it shrinks you would need something like a sealant or tar to seal to old concrete and the uprights but it can be sealed
New tank is bunded Gaz so I am not too worried about containment now.

I think I'm correct in saying :- The only weigh acting down on a single sq cm at the base will be the single sq cm in the sq cm column above it so say 120 cm x the weight of one cubic cm of fuel say 2 grams per cm ?

Cheaper in big bulk refills ???
Exactly. It feeds three boilers and we can get through it in winter meaning expensive fill ups. We had a 1000 litre tank before and would end up needing three top ups over the six expensive months.
I am at risk of missing the boat here but if i fill two weeks ago i would get the cheapest oil to last into spring. It could potentially be one (expensive) fill a year now.

3 boilers, do you have a monster gaff or holiday homes?
The latter. If i get rich off of them i might join them up and have a monster gaff though

But what about all the other 1cm cubed columns in the middle of the tank?
No. I know what you mean. These are a way to afford living here for a lot less than if we didnt have them.

They act downwards on their same square cm surely ? I think there will be a slight increase in pressure outwards the lower you go down on the wall of the tank but being round it won't matter much .
Pressure on tank walls
Hi all, A problem pops up while I was trying to calculate the pressure impacts on my aquarium tank walls. The first formula comes up to my mind was: p = d*h where d is pressure at one point inside the liquid d is density of the liquid (assume it's pure water) h is the height or...
