FREMGANGSMAATE FOR FREMSTILLING AV EN KULE- ELLER HALVKULEFORMET TANK

摘要

A method of constructing a spherical tank or the like, in which large-sized structural units or blocks of the triangular or the like shape are prefabricated by dividing the spherical surface of the tank along the equatorial line or other latitudinal lines on one hand and a plurality of longitudinal lines on the other hand, so as to provide convenience in mounting and assembling them into a complete spherical tank. Reinforcements are temporarily attached on the large-sized structural unit along the peripheral portion thereof, so that the reinforcements are disposed thereon substantially in the form of a triangle or the analogous shape, and may serve to increase the rigidity of the large-sized structural unit, thereby preventing the same from being subjected to deformation such as distortion.
