A painted steel, seismic rated stand for an 11,500 gallon cone bottom tank
Snyder Industries part number 79500100 is a cone bottom tank (CBT) stand in painted steel, built for an 11,500 gallon Snyder cone and named by Snyder as seismic rated. It is 142 inches long, 142 inches wide and 62 inches tall, and it ships at 3,000 lb. A cone bottom tank has no flat base to stand on, so the stand is what carries the tank, its contents and the drain hardware under the cone. It ships as oversize freight from Snyder's plant in Lincoln, Nebraska.

What it is for
An 11,500 gallon cone bottom tank is a large process or storage vessel, and 11,500 gallons of water alone is a load measured in tens of thousands of pounds at 8.34 lb per gallon. Everything that weight does to the ground passes through this stand. The seismic rating in its name is the reason to choose it where the building code asks for seismic design, or where a permit requires it. The 62 inch height sets how much room there is under the cone for the outlet valve, the piping and any pump or receiving vessel, so plan the drain line around it.
The steel is painted. Touch up any chips from handling before the stand goes into service, and inspect the paint each year where liquids or fertilizer can splash it.
What to check before you buy
- The tank. The stand is named for an 11,500 gallon tank. No specific tank part number is listed here, so give us the part number of your tank and we will confirm the match before you order.
- The seismic details. No seismic design category, load rating or anchor bolt size is listed on this page. If your engineer or building official needs those numbers, call us before you order and we will confirm them against part number 79500100.
- The foundation. A full 11,500 gallon tank puts its weight through the stand feet into the slab. Have the slab and the anchors designed for that load by your engineer; the drawing linked under Technical Drawing on this page shows the stand.
- The footprint. Allow the 142 by 142 inch footprint plus a walkway round it so the valve and the far side stay reachable.
Shipping and receiving
79500100 ships as oversize freight (class OVS) from Lincoln, Nebraska: a 142 by 142 by 62 inch load at 3,000 lb. A load that wide needs lifting equipment on site, so plan the offload with us before the truck is booked. The listed price is before freight; the freight cost estimator gives the cost to your ZIP, and we will confirm the oversize details by phone. At the tailgate, check 79500100 on the bill of lading and inspect the steel and paint for transit damage. Set the stand on the finished slab, level it on both diagonals, and anchor it before the tank is lifted on. Then fill the tank with water the first time and check the stand feet and anchors again after the fill.
