摘要:
A method for constructing a plastic lined concrete tank includes the forming of a plurality of plastic lined concrete panels. Each of the panels is made up of a concrete slab and a plastic sheet. The concrete slabs have opposed, laterally spaced, elongated edges and an inner surface and the plastic sheet each have a plurality of anchoring projections protruding outwardly from a face thereof. The panels are formed in such a way that the face of each plastic sheet is engaged against the surface of a corresponding concrete slab with the anchoring projections embedded in the concrete of said corresponding slab. The plastic sheets are arranged, configured and positioned such that a respective edge flap portion thereof projects outwardly beyond each edge of the corresponding slab and each such edge flap portion has an outboard segment. The panels are preferably constructed flat on the ground and then erected into a standing position and arranged in adjacent, aligned positions around a periphery of a tank foundation with the inner surfaces of the slabs facing inwardly, with the elongated edges of the slabs extending upwardly, with the respective elongated edges of each slab disposed in opposing spaced relationship relative to the elongated edges of adjacent slabs to thereby present elongated gaps therebetween, with the plastic sheets disposed within the tank periphery, and with the outboard segments of the edge flap portions of each sheet overlapping the outboard segments of the edge flap portions of the sheets of adjacent panels at said gap. The overlapping outboard segments are then welded together.
