ABSTRACT:
A laminated containment structure, and method of making, are disclosed. In one form, the containment structure is configured as an expansive secondary containment liner particularly suited for use in association with bulk storage tanks for hydrocarbon fuels and the like. In an alternate embodiment, the structure is configured as a sealable container suited for storage and handling of harardous materials. The containment structure is configured for efficient manufacture and installation, as well as a high degree of resistance to puncture and leakage. Manufacture is facilitated by first forming a plurality of elongated laminated strips each comprising a lamination of a polyester elastomeric layer and at least one non-woven geotextile fabric layer. In the preferred form, a pair of the fabric layers are bonded to respective opposite expansive surfaces of each elastomeric layer, with the fabric layers offset from respective edge portions of the elastomeric layer to facilitate bonding of the elastomeric layers together to form the containment structure with a substantially uninterrupted expanse or continuum of the polyester elastomer.
