What is Adjustable Steel Support Pedestal for Water Tank?
An Adjustable Steel Support Pedestal is a prefabricated structural support system designed for installing GRP, HDG and stainless steel sectional water tanks. With an adjustable height range of 410–520 mm, it enables accurate levelling and alignment of the water tank skid base to suit different installation conditions.
The pedestal can be manufactured with a hot-dip galvanized finish for excellent corrosion resistance and long-term durability. Its reinforced steel construction provides stable support for the water tank skid base, while the adjustable threaded section allows precise height adjustment during installation.
What is Adjustable Steel Support Pedestal Advantange?
Alternative to concrete plinths: Eliminates individual concrete plinth construction beneath the tank skid base.
Adjustable from 410 to 520 mm: Provides flexible height control and precise base levelling.
Faster installation: No formwork, concrete pouring or curing time is required.
Reduced labour requirements: Minimizes masonry work and other labour-intensive site activities.
Higher project efficiency: Prefabricated components simplify installation and shorten the construction programme.
Accurate alignment: The threaded adjustment system helps maintain a level and properly aligned tank skid base.
Durable construction: Heavy-duty steel construction provides stable and reliable support.
Corrosion protection: A hot-dip galvanized finish can provide long-term protection in humid water-tank environments.
Cleaner worksite: Reduces dust, construction waste and disruption associated with concrete work.
Improved accessibility: Creates clear space beneath the tank for inspection, cleaning, drainage and maintenance.
Modular design: Individual pedestals can be adjusted, inspected or replaced when required.
Wide compatibility: Suitable for GRP, hot-dip galvanized steel and stainless steel sectional water tanks.


Adjustable Steel Support Pedestal – The Smart Alternative to Concrete Plinths
The Adjustable Steel Support Pedestal is a prefabricated support system developed for GRP, HDG and stainless steel sectional water tanks. It supports and levels the water tank skid base, providing a faster, cleaner and more efficient alternative to conventional concrete plinths.
With an adjustable height range of 410–520 mm, each pedestal can be precisely adjusted on site to achieve the correct elevation and level alignment of the complete tank base. This makes installation easier, particularly where the supporting floor has minor level differences or where accurate skid-base positioning is required.
Unlike traditional concrete plinths, which require formwork, reinforcement, concrete pouring and curing, the steel pedestal is manufactured in advance and delivered ready for installation. This significantly reduces wet construction work, on-site labour and installation time, helping contractors improve productivity and shorten the overall project schedule.


Practical Application of Adjustable Steel Support Pedestals for Water Tank Installation
This project demonstrates the practical application of Adjustable Steel Support Pedestals for a 2.5 m × 2.0 m × 2.0 m GRP sectional water tank manufactured for a customer in Japan.
The complete water tank, skid base and adjustable support pedestal system were assembled and installed at our factory before export. Factory assembly allowed us to verify the overall dimensions, structural alignment, pedestal positions and tank-base level before shipment. The completed system was then exported as an integrated unit, reducing installation work and improving efficiency at the customer’s site.
The adjustable steel pedestals were installed beneath the water tank skid base as an alternative to traditional concrete plinths. With an adjustable height range of 410–520 mm, the pedestals allow accurate height adjustment and precise levelling of the complete tank structure.
Compared with conventional concrete plinth construction, this solution eliminates formwork, concrete pouring and curing time. It reduces on-site labour, shortens the installation period and provides a cleaner and more efficient installation process.
The raised steel support structure also creates accessible space beneath the water tank, making future inspection, cleaning, drainage and maintenance more convenient.
