Tank Slab

Page 1 of 1
Looking at putting 3 x 10,000L tanks on concrete slab off shed, 3m x 13.5m x 100mm to suit an 'E' type soil, 32 MPA with F72 mesh.
Can someone tell if this is strong enough to hold the weight of tanks + water or should i go 150mm thick slab which is going to cost a lot more.

Thanks
Should be ok, just put a saw cut between each one. Cheaper to use compacted road base?
