==Cost==
The cost of underground tanks can be high and variable in cost per m3 of storage (seem to average around $30-40 per m3 of storage, sometimes a lot more depending on various factors– sub-surface hemispherical tanks made from stone masonry and bricks/cement in Ethiopia cost in the range 113 - 219 Euro per m3 of storage including all costs, with costs varying with parameters such as trucked water for construction and solidity of construction (more solidly built tanks in clay areas cost more). * Brick cement tank of 1 m3: 1 bag of cement, 100 bricks, 1 kg of wire US$ 20 .* Brick cement tank of 6 m3: 3 bags of cement, 300 bricks, 3 kg of wire US$ 40.* Water jars from brick - US$78 per m3 storage (0.7 m3 for US$55).* Thinner walled brick-cement tanks that are reinforced externally with steel wire every course of bricks can be cheaper and easier to construct than ferrocement tanks. Volumes can be up to 30m3 and the tank is rendered inside and outside. Cost: US$6.7 - $20 per m3 of storage (e.g. 1m3 for US$20; 6m3 for US$40).
* In Kenya, brick/cement tanks cost $37 per m of storage (21m3 tank cost $780).
* In Sri Lanka, brick tanks cost 28 per m3 of storage (5m3 tank cost $140).
