Capacity of tank in litres:
1x2x1.5=3m^3 or 3000 litres
Volume of concrete:
(0.1*1.5*1*2)+(0.1*1.5*2(0.1*2))*2)+(0.1*1.2*2.2)=0.3+0.66+0.264=1.224 m^3 of concrete
(Thickness x Depth x Width excluding the thickness of the wall x Two sides) + (Thickness x Depth x Length including the thickness of the wall on both sides x Two sides) + (Base slab dimensions)
