The invention relates to a large-volume storage tank (100, 100') that com prises a closing section (200, 200', 200'') closed by a bottom (210, 210', 2 10''), another closing section (200, 200', 200'') or a bottom (400) and/or a t least one intermediate section (300, 300', 300''), at least two of these n eighbouring components being connected together by a junction means (500) in cluding two collars (510) formed on the free annular ends of the two compone nts and being opposite to each other, a plurality of bolts extending through both collars (510) for connecting the same. According to the invention, the junction means (500) includes a plurality of washers (522) mounted on the s crews of the bolts (520) and provided between both collars (510) in order to define therebetween an annular volume (532) for receiving a sealing means ( 530). With this structure, the different components of the tank can be easil y and very economically assembled and a calibrated width provision is contem plated for receiving a sealing means.
