I might be asking a dumb question but your description of the formula confused me. Pressure = denisty (assuming this is density of the liquid?) times g (gravity?) times head of liquid (height of the liquid) what do you mean by shape involved?

Okay, Say that the tank is only half filled. Which would be roughly 5,000 gallons of water. The water cannot spill out i can assure you of this. sophiecentaur: If the water can't spill out then the maximum head of water will be the diagonal distance from highs to lowest point - assuming the...

Thank you all for these answers. Yes, this is all in healthy curiosity. Yes imperial units are a pain to use and when it comes down to it confusing lol. Yes i just wasn't sure of my math or if i applied anything that was even right. Now a second question. Say i wanted to pick this tank up at...

Nope no subs here lol.. I work for a roll off container manufacturer. This item is called a poly tank. This bladder is actually made out of high weight molecular polyethylene. I attached an image to help you get a idea of what I'm working with. The black bladder is the high weight molecular...

Yes this is practical. In reality it can be anything but for this problem assume it is filled with water. This is a stationary holding tank. It is inside a steel frame and is rigid.

I am not sure how to calculate any of this or if i am even doing it correctly. I pulled these formulas from different sites and not sure if I applied them correctly. Or even if these were the right formulas to apply. **I also did all calculations acting as if the bladder was square and had...
