I want to install a rain water storage tank in the loft of my garage. It would get rain off the main roof of the house and be used for watering the garden and maybe flushing the toilet.
How can I calculate what size of tank the loft can support. It's got conventional prefabricated roof trusses and I'm looking to store about 1 cubic metre of water (1 tonne), though not all in the same tank.My aim would be to put several tanks in to spread the load and make it possible to actually get them up there
