Abstract of the Disclosure A support is disclosed for a spherical tank comprising a foundation operatively associated with an outer boundary ring and with a layer of sand bearing the tank. In order to avoid problems associated with storage of media whose temperature is below that of the tank surroundings with the resulting lifting of the tank by a bead of ice, the disclosed invention provides a filling of insulating concrete between the foundation slab and the sand layer inside the boundary ring. The top of the filling defines a support surface for a layer of sand whose shape corresponds to that of the spherical exterior of the tank. The invention achieves the above object while providing a relatively inexpensive support for the tank.
