A large, box-like polygonal tank (30) for storing liquefied gas on land or on ground based structures and a method of constructing the tank. The tank is comprised of an internal, truss-braced, rigid frame (31), having a cover (40) on the frame for containing the stored liquid within the tank. The internal, truss-braced frame allows the interior of the tank to be contiguous throughout while compensating for the dynamic loads caused by the "sloshing" of stored liquid which, in turn, is due to the short excitation periods caused by seismic activity. |
