Sealed and thermally insulating tank incorporated into a polyhedral bearing structure, a first bearing wall and a second bearing wall forming an edge corner, the tank having a first tank wall, a thermally insulating barrier and a sealed membrane, the tank further has an angle bracket with a first flange and a second flange in such a way that the angle bracket connects in a sealed manner. The sealed membrane of the first tank wall and the sealed membrane of the second tank wall in line with the edge corner, in which the angle bracket has a pair of first tabs and a pair of second tabs, the tank has a pair of first anchor rods coupled to a respective first tab and a pair of second anchor rods coupled to a respective second tab in such a way as to transmit a tensile load between the angle bracket.
A sealed and thermally insulating tank incorporated into a polyhedral bearing structure, a first bearing wall (2) of the bearing structure and a second bearing wall (3) of the bearing structure forming an edge corner (1) of the bearing structure, the tank comprising a first tank wall anchored on the first bearing wall and a second tank wall anchored on the second bearing wall, the tank walls comprising a thermally insulating barrier anchored on the corresponding bearing wall and a sealed membrane borne by said thermally insulating barrier,
