    Abstract: A tank includes a secondary insulation barrier, a secondary sealing membrane resting on the secondary insulation barrier, a primary insulation barrier resting on the secondary sealing membrane, a primary sealing membrane resting on the primary insulation barrier, and a primary reinforcing member. The primary sealing membrane includes primary corrugations and the secondary sealing membrane includes secondary corrugations projecting toward the interior of the tank. The primary and secondary corrugations are superimposed along a thickness direction. The primary insulation barrier has passages, and the secondary corrugations are accommodated in the passages. A dimension of the primary insulation barrier is less than a dimension of the secondary corrugations along the thickness direction, so the secondary corrugations extend through the passages and are partially accommodated in the primary corrugations. The primary reinforcing member is interposed along the thickness direction between superimposed primary and secondary corrugations so as to reinforce the primary corrugation.

    Abstract: A fluid storage container includes an inner vessel part having a first interior space (S1) for storing a fluid, an outer vessel part having a second interior space (S2) that accommodates the inner vessel part and spaced apart from the inner vessel part outwards, and a suspension part provided between the inner vessel part and the outer vessel part, one side of which contacts the inner vessel part, and an opposite side of which contacts the outer vessel part. The suspension part includes an inner member, one end of which is coupled to the inner vessel part and which extends from the one end thereof outwards, and an outer member, one end of which is coupled to the outer vessel part, which extends from the one side thereof inwards, and coupled to the inner member. The outer member is formed of a material having a thermal conductivity that is lower than that of the inner member.
