ABSTRACT:
A tank construction having a floor formed of interconnected panels. The tank includes a generally cylindrical shell which is supported on a footing and a floor encloses the lower end of the shell. A sump is located centrally of the floor and the floor consists of a plurality of generally pie-shaped panels which extend between the sump to the shell. Bolts connect the inner edge of the panels to the sump, as well as connecting the side edges of the panel together and connecting the outer edges of the panels to a foundation angle which supports the lower end of the shell of the tank. The lower ends of anchor bolts are embedded in the footing and the upper ends of the anchor bolts are located on the outside of the shell and are secured to generally hat-shaped anchor chairs that are mounted on the outer surface of the shell.
