Good morning Tank Builders,

We found there are 3 to 5 mm gap between the annular plate and concrete foundation outside the shell.

I believe we can not leave as it is.

What is the usual product that tank builders use to seal this gap ? Can we use non shrinkage grouting material or something like silicon ?

Thanks for the advise or advice :)

Yes, that is the correct material. There really is no need for epoxy grout; my preference is cementious grout.
