Elevated tanks are necessary to supply potable water in most of the countries allover the world. Construction of elevated reinforced concrete tanks involves utilizing unique construction methods due to various characteristics like cost, constructability, resources and time. This paper covers different methods of construction of reinforced concrete elevated tanks by concentrating on different construction methods of every tank component. Moreover, a comparative analysis is provided to show when to use every method of construction according to the conditions available. Two tanks with different sizes and project conditions were studied and examined against the developed selection criteria in order to evaluate the validity of the applied construction methods in each case.
