- the liner 22 rests on the base of the tank 10.
- the upper periphery of the liner is folded over the shorter dimensioned peripheral edge 28 of the wall panels 14, and is clamped to the panels by clips 30 in the form of elongate steel channel sections.
- the clips 30 can be fabricated from any suitable material including high density polyethylene (HDPE) or other appropriate plastics material.
- Each of wall panel 14 incorporates a plurality of bends 32 that are spaced apart from one another across the panel.
- the bends are provided by roll-forming the panels.
- the flanges 17 of the panels can also be formed by the roll-forming operation.
