How tanks were built ?

About a tank constructed by Krishnadeva Raya, Paes wrote :
The king made a tank ... at the mouth of two hills so that all the water
which comes from either one side or the other collects there; and, besides
this, water comes to it from more than three leagues (approximately 15
kilometres) by pipes which run along the lower parts of the range
outside. This water is brought from a lake which itself overflows into a
little river. The tank has three large pillars handsomely carved with
figures; these connect above with certain pipes by which they get water
when they have to irrigate their gardens and rice-fields. In order to
make this tank the said king broke down a hill ... In the tank I saw so
many people at work that there must have been fifteen or twenty
thousand men, looking like ants ...
(31.1) Why did Krishnadeva Raya construct a tank ? 1
(31.2) Why did Krishnadeva Raya choose the location at the mouth of
two hills for building the tank ? 1
