Grade 10 Project
Duncannon Elevated Tank: A Storage and Pressure Design Project
A four-session grade 10 project where teams size an elevated tank for a fictional town to meet storage, pressure-range and budget limits at low cost.
Students practice grade-level mathematics on real utility quantities such as flow rates, tank volumes, and water bills, using the same formulas that appear on operator licensing exams.
