    摘要: A container for storage of molten material from an industrial facility, and method of manufacture thereof, is provided to maximize internal volume of the container while providing structural stability. The container includes walls having rounded convex-shaped edges at each wall junction. A first head is connected to the walls at a first end of the container, and a second head closes the second end of the container. The second head is connected to the walls at a second end of the container. Corners are defined at the intersection of the walls with the first head and second head at the first end and the second end respectively. A first flange is connected to the first head to receive molten material, and the first head is shaped as a tapered shoulder to smoothly transition from the first flange to the junction of the walls.
