2. Inverted “T” Foundation 4" Outside Stiffened (CFL Series) Commercial Farm Tanks 3000 PSF Soil Bearing Capacity Inverted “T” Foundation Notes: 1. The foundation design is based on a minimum allowable soil bearing capacity of 3000 PSF. Bearing capacity of the soils should be determined by geotechnical investigation and be of uniform bearing capacity. 2. The foundation site must be free of vegetation and debris and well drained. 3.
