Abstract: A method of manufacturing a silo or tank with a lining by using preformed wall sheets comprising, along the edges thereof, edge zones provided with bolt holes for connecting the wall sheets to each other with slight overlap, wherein wall sheets are used prefabricated with a coating layer applied to the inside of the wall sheets under controlled conditions by spraying, spreading or the like, which coating layer covers the entire inner surface of the wall sheet, but leaves free the edge zones of two connecting edges; that the prefabricated wall sheets are then brought to the building site and connected to each other in such a manner that in each case a coated edge zone of a wall sheet lies on the inside on a free edge zone of another wall sheet; that at least on the inside the seams between the wall sheets are provided with a cemented joint and the heads of the bolts or the like are likewise provided with a layer of coating material.
