A structure comprising flattened expanded metal, or the like, having a sealed fabric of nylon or glass cloth bonded thereto by an intervening polyurethane elastomeric plastic. The structure disclosed is a storage tank having a framework, including circumferentially spaced longerons and longitudinally spaced rings secured to the longerons, with the sealed fabric bonded by the elastomeric plastic to the expanded metal and the surfaces of the framework which is engages. End portions of the framework have flattened expanded metals secured thereto and to which the sealed fabric is bonded by the polyurethane elastomeric plastic. A band of continuous filament glass may be wound around and bonded to the fabric.
