ACI 364.12T-15 PDF
Nonprestressed reinforced concrete liquid containment structures—in particular, noncircular tanks—often exhibit vertical and diagonal cracks that are aesthetically objectionable.

Such cracks, however, are seldom indicative of structural failure. This TechNote reviews the methodology of repair in liquid containment structures.
