Hello. I am doing exactly the same thing as you in Morocco. I completely understand when you say "I walk around the land with my head in the clouds". This is the best therapy you can get. Just spending time thinking about what could be.
I am happy for your dream to have your own homestead. It would have been better if the land was not cleared in such a way. The resources that came with the land is gone. You could have incorporated some into the garden and other structures. I would encourage you to read about permaculture. It will give you a rich understanding of how to take care of your land by mimicking the nature; working with nature as opposed to working against it. You can simply store rainwater in the soil by digging trenches called swales on contour. Make sure to utilize the soil and vegetation bulldozed back into the garden. That was the topsoil that’s full of nutrients. Plant matters can be used as biochar or buried as a hugelkulture.
Korewaa, you should consider having your voice tested. You could easily become a radio presenter. Your story is like poetry in motion. I will be watching as I can relate to your obvious love of fruit trees and land. I live in South Africa and I am a pensioner. I delight in growing vegies and fruit trees. I am a beginner though. Presently I am trying to enrich the soil by using organic compost. As it is winter here at present, it buys me time for next season. All in small scale of course. Blessings.
Here in South Africa we call it the TLB for Tractor Loader and Backhoe. Underground storage was a master stroke, more like a covered swimming pool or sceptic tank. - I'd advise you to upgrade your reservoir in the near future and build with the rebars as you correctly suggested. - The extra support wall you used will help only with the ground-to-wall pressure, but not the strong outward pressure exerted on a full tank - Further use swimming pool quality inside finishing to avoid seepage and preserve concrete structural integrity from water damage. - Local swimming pool builders can advise you. Good and inspirational work, and I'll follow your orchard progress.
If you compress the soil behind those walls. They will fall in. If you do not the water will push them out. Compact the bottom. Concrete with rebar. Rebar first on the walls. Formwork then poor the Concrete behind. The millions of years have compacted the earth in place will hold it in place. Building a non reinforced brick wall. That tank will not survive 1 filling.
You are likely to loose water due to leakage in the dry season for underground water storage built this way. You may want to consider a waterproofing barrier. Essentially you want a swimming pool-like kind of structure.
Not sure about leakage because these type of under ground water tanks are built in the virgin islands under the houses. The are call cisterns and they are just plastered the same way this one was built. We never have had water leakage as a result. The water for the cistern are usually filled from water collected on the roof tops of the houses. In the dry season we have to buy water from water trucks if the water runs out.
When you render the interior walls, there is an Ammendment that you add as you mix the cement, a type of Plasticiser, that makes it very waterproof, not very expensive, adds maybe 10% to cost of cement. We use it to line Water Tanks and Septic Tanks here in The Philippines...
Africa have such a potencial to be sooo good for their population that we all need to pray for them to have honest lidership! And peace! Then it will be a matter of time until they all get together and transform their ecomonies into a top world class one! They have all the good tools! Congrats for the project!
In the Virgin islands we call these water storage cisterns. They are usually are built under the house in the ground. There is no water lost and they are built in the same way you built that one.
Good idea of having water storage. The best shape would have been round. With a square/rectangular shape, the corners are likely to develop cracks (this I've experienced!) and water will seep out. You could have dug the pit and placed the plastic tank(s) underground as another alternative.
@@timothykeith1367 It would not , the round tank is the best way to go because the curved surface reduces the surface area for hydrostatic pressure on the walls .Even though we don't often do these round tanks on the ground for water storage except for waste large treatment plant .They are usually Elevated tank but the principle is the same.So to do the round tank or say the rectangular tank ,it should be reinforced concrete ,not blockwork.
Concrete take a while to cure. You could have waited a bit before filling with water. Also, I noticed the water tank wasn't built with structural reinforcement columns. Water is quite heavy. And being soaked in water makes it even more prone to collapse. Just be care when using or walking on top.
@@Korewaa-GhBizGirl The construction will be ok, the outer walls will be supported with the soil you replaced while the inner barrier wall and water pressure will stop the walls from caving in and also the thick steel reinforcing will give extra support also. Twenty eight days is the recommended time to wait for concrete to harden....a job well done your workmen know what the're doing, greetings from the Philippines.
Great brickwork by the builder. That wall is as straight as they come. Put in a rain harvesting system to save you money on replenishing. Also invest in a good solar-powered water pump as your irrigation area is huge
Very impressive my just as am about to start only difficulty is I leave in the UK and not easy to get people you to do exactly what you want back home. Will definitely contact this guy.
I really like your way of building and reinforcing the tank for DIY application. The only thing I would be cautious about is leaching chemicals from your tank into what you are growing without a liner or inert lining material installed. Also, the silica dust that is being inhaled by your workers while constructing the tank WILL cause silicosis eventually . Basically, that dust will eventually cause irreversible lung damage to those guys. So viewers thinking of doing this should protect their lungs accordingly.
The underground water tank was a fantastic idea! I am curious though. How much water does it actually hold and what did this water tank cost to build? Thank you!
I likewise, would also love to construct an underground water reservoir: . How much litters can such tanks hold . What was your total cost, what region of Ghana are you in and most importantly how much did your property cost you; thank you very much in advance for all the detailed information you provided your viewers, it is greatly appreciated.
Congratulations. You are doing very well. You mentioned that these tanks will be filled from rain collected from your homestead. Do you know you can actually calculate the amount of water you can collect from your roof? If you know the average rainfall in that area and your roof footprint you can get this number and therefore be able to size your tank appropriately. Example Average rainfal 1200mm=1.2m pa Roofprint 300sqm Amount of rain collectable per year= 300x1.2=360cubic meters of water per year. That is equal to 360,000 litres of water. Assuming you have two established rain seasons per year, this means you can collect 180,000l every season. For my projects I usually divide the collectable amount per year into three to size my tank. In my given example above, I would build a tank with capacity for storing 120,000litres.
Water from the roof is in how litlle concentration it may comme allways watery birdpoo. Even as there is "only" one poo on the roof and the rain wasshes it off gooing to the tank it is wattery birdpoo.
@@denisdb725 this is true Denis. However, rainwater harvesting is a deliberate effort that requires one to be adequately informed. Dust in the air and other contaminants like bird poo can be mitigated. Rainwater is the easiest to purify.
@@adammaina5612 This aswell as my words are true to. And one must go with what one has. Even in countries where water is a smaller problem the water commes from rivers and canals over what birds fly. And make there "droppings". Only there the watercompanies have very strict rules for what tey must do before the water goes to peoples taps in houses. And again I am pro for this type of water systems to make one has it if needed.
@@denisdb725 and not to mentioned the amount of dog shit that actually get washed into the river and lakes were the water is source from in those countries before it is treated and sent to the tap.
How many litres was it? Planning to do the same. I love the reinforcement idea. Will connect to my guesthouse gutters and collect loads of God's free rainwater whenever it rains!
Very good idea.but to put steell on d floor before first casting is d best. Because, its deep below d ground level ; closer to clay soil. Nice construction though.
Hi KOREWAA - brilliant idea. What i would've to know though - WAS WATERPROOF CONCRETE/ CEMENT used to build the underground storage tank? Would love to build such a tank when starting to build in Ghana 🇬🇭 🇯🇲
@Dlannette Mclish - I was wondering the same, because over time the concrete can break down & also mildew if it's not waterproof & properly ventilated.
Not sure but in the Virgin islands 🇻🇮 this is standard to build what we call cisterns under the flooring of the houses which is then filled with water that is collected from the roof top using water gutters. We have never had issues with any leakage.
I notice a few people asking about how much doe the tank hold. This is pretty simple to calculate. A cubic foot hold about 7.4 gallons. So, a tank 5 x 5 x 5 feet would hold 125 x 7.4 = 925 gallons.
Beautiful idea by the way. I think you can also Harvest Rain water. You should probably improvise a straining system that will receive rain water into your underground tank, so you don't even have to buy water in the rainy season or even waste using your precious borehole water as well. Cheers!🙂
Hi korewaa . Thanks for the reply God bless you. I just want to ask if there still land available for sale and how much per plot now? because according to the time of you sharing the video clip 5months had elapsed now . Thanks celestine.
It's nice seeing the underground water storage.. would like to suggest if you could create a way to harvest rain water into the underground storage ☺️☺️
In the virgin islands 🇻🇮 we call the under water tanks cistern. Having been doing this for years due to droughts and the limited nature of natural water sources. They are usually built under the house where they are filled from rain water collected from the house roof tops.
madam did you seal the skim coat ? if not water will leech out over a few years, building a tank you must think of it like a swimming pool you must seal in with a waterproof seal, if you have not dont worry to late, but you know for next time
I've being toying with the idea..I made some enquiries last month, but I'm not getting much info about the process and professionals to execute it here in Ghana...still looking though 🙂👍🏾
@@Korewaa-GhBizGirl It's not difficult, you will have to decide on the width and depth, but put a plastic lining below any materials you put on the bottom and sides to keep your water from seeping into the soil until it seals itself.
A job well done and well planned. I have a question for you Korewaa. Can you explain to me why you have chosen underground water tanks instead of above ground tanks? It would also be nice if you mention the well yield versus water needed for irrigation and have you considered placing a storage tank in a high place like small hill near your farm to save pumping energy needed?
