Abstract
Rainwater storage tank is one of the components of systems so called Rainwater Harvesting (RWH). The storage tank is based on construction with cement-based materials instead of having ready made available in market. The advantages of using cement-based material are low initial cost as well as long lifespan. On the other hand, common problems occur having this type of tank are shrinkage and crack. Shrinkage and crack can be reduces while constructing the tank, before and also after the construction. Reinforcement cement storage tank can reduce the cracks and shrinkage. The methods of constructing the tank explained in this project are by using metal rod, chicken wire and also aluminum sheets. The construction is easy as well as simple design so that no need skilled labor in constructing the tank. The quality of rain water can be maintain and treated by some common filter system.
