Project: Water Tanks at Andheri Sports Complex

 

Details: The two water tanks of 23,500 litre and 1,95,000 litre weigh 70 MT and 240 MT respectively. The Lord Buddha statue is carved out of monolithic granite, and weighs a mammoth 300 tonne.

 

Challenge: The tanks were cast on ground and had to be lifted to a height of 47 meter and 38 meter respectively.

 

Solution: A state-of-the-art prestressing technique was used in conjunction with hydraulic jacks in order to achieve the challenging task.
