Abstract
Abstract In a sludge treatment tank, members made of a glass long-fiber reinforced foamed plastic composite material are used as formworks in construction and then left as an inside wall member. The composite material functions as formworks in a construction method as well as applies an insulating property and a corrosion resistant property to the sludge treatment tank and further realizes labor saving in a field of construction works, the provision of a good working environment and the reduction of a period of construction work.
