A manhole base assembly and a method for making the same, in which a non-cylindrical, low-volume concrete base is fully lined to protect the concrete against chemical and physical attack while in service. This lined concrete manhole base assembly may be readily produced using a modular manhole form assembly which can be configured for a wide variety of geometrical configurations compatible with, e.g., varying pipe angles, elevations and sizes. The form assembly is configurable to provide any desired angle and elevation for the pipe apertures using existing, standard sets of form assembly materials, and may also be used in conjunction with industry-standard cylindrical casting jackets for compatibility with existing casting operations. The resulting system provides for flexible construction of a wide variety of lined manhole base assemblies at minimal cost, reduced concrete consumption and reduced operational complexity. The modular nature of the production form assembly also facilitates reduced inventory requirements when various manhole base assembly geometries are needed.

1. A manhole base assembly comprising: a cast base having a non-cylindrical outermost profile, comprising: an upper opening having an upper opening diameter;a first, planar base wall including a first pipe opening, said first base wall disposed radially outwardly of said upper opening diameter;a second, planar base wall including a second pipe opening;a third, curved outer wall extending between said first and second base walls;a base top wall disposed radially outwardly of said upper opening diameter and extending between said upper opening and said first base wall; anda polymeric liner received within said cast base and extending substantially between said first and second pipe openings, said liner including a flow channel disposed at a lower end of said cast base, said flow channel extending substantially between said first and second pipe openings, said first and second pipe openings aligned with respective pipe axes disposed at a first angle with respect to one another, said first angle defining a second, reflex angle, said first and second angles different from one another. 2. The manhole base assembly of claim 1, wherein said second base wall is disposed radially outwardly of said upper opening diameter, and said base top wall extends between said upper opening and said second base wall. 3. The manhole base assembly of claim 1, wherein said first and second base walls are non-parallel and disposed at an angle with respect to one another. 4. The manhole base assembly of claim 1, further comprising a pair of flexible gaskets respectively disposed within said first and second openings of said first and second base walls. 5. The manhole base assembly of claim 4, wherein at least one of said gaskets comprises: an anchoring section at least partially embedded within said cast base; andan annular sealing section projecting from said anchoring section and extending around a respective pipe opening. 6. The manhole base assembly of claim 1, wherein said liner further comprises: an entry aperture defining an entry aperture diameter and aligned with said upper opening of said cast base;a first side wall having a first pipe aperture, said first pipe aperture disposed radially outwardly of said entry aperture diameter and aligned with said first pipe opening of said cast base;a second side wall having a second pipe aperture and aligned with said second pipe opening of said cast base;a liner top wall disposed radially outwardly of said entry aperture diameter and extending between said entry aperture and said first side wall; andsaid flow channel extending between said first and second pipe apertures and in fluid communication with said entry aperture. 7. The manhole base assembly of claim 6, wherein said second pipe aperture is disposed radially outwardly of said entry aperture diameter, said liner top wall extending between said entry aperture and said second side wall. 8. The manhole base assembly of claim 1, wherein said liner comprises: an entry aperture defining an entry aperture diameter;a first side wall having a first pipe aperture, said first pipe aperture disposed radially outwardly of said entry aperture diameter;a second side wall having a second pipe;a liner top wall disposed radially outwardly of said entry aperture diameter and extending between said entry aperture and said first side wall; andsaid flow channel extending between said first and second pipe apertures. 9. The manhole base assembly of claim 8, wherein said second pipe aperture is disposed radially outwardly of said entry aperture diameter, said liner top wall extending between said entry aperture and said second side wall. 10. The manhole base assembly of claim 8, further comprising at least one of: a curved front wall extending between said first and second side walls; anda curved rear wall extending between said first and second side walls. 11. The manhole base assembly of claim 8, wherein said entry aperture diameter is greater than diameters of each of said first and second pipe apertures. 12. The manhole base assembly of claim 8, wherein said first and second side walls are non-parallel and disposed at an angle with respect to one another. 13. The manhole base assembly of claim 8, further comprising a plurality of reinforcement rods forming a reinforcement assembly at least partially surrounding said liner and fixed to said liner. 14. The manhole base assembly of claim 8, wherein the liner comprises a plurality of anchors each having a connection portion fixedly connected to an outer surface of the liner and an anchoring portion extending away from the outer surface of the liner. 15. The manhole base assembly of claim 8, wherein the liner is formed from a composite material including an inner layer and an outer layer joined to the outer layer. 16. The manhole base assembly of claim 15, wherein the inner layer of the liner is a polymer material and the outer layer of the liner is fiberglass.
