One size and style does not fit all. At Sekisui we have consistently listened and responded to the demands of our customers who desire special products for special situations.
The most important point of a tank's design for earthquake resistance is the ability of its rigid construction to survive the specific oscillation frequency of the seismic waves (the oscillation frequency of the strongest wave of an earthquake). Through an abundance of practical test data, Sekisui also offers an earthquake-resistant panel tank which utilises our proprietary "box frame" construction (externally reinforced) for excellent stability and high rigidity.
Using this wealth of data and accompanying computer analysis, Sekisui is able to offer the utmost precision in design of the most highly reliable panel tank on the market today. And it is through this care in design that we are able to offer an earthquake resistance which can handle a horizontal seismic intensity of 0.3 - 2.0G, easily responding to a variety of customer needs.
Tests have proven that Sekisui tanks can withstand an earthquake's specific oscillation frequency and protect against resonance when the height of the tank installation is above 10 meters.
