A manhole base assembly and a method for making the same employ a non-cylindrical, low-volume concrete base that 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 to interface with various underground systems, and can be formed on-site to facilitate compatibility with existing structures. The assembly provides for flexible, modular 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 liner for use in casting within a cast manhole structure having a cast base, the liner comprising: an entry aperture defining an entry aperture diameter;a first side wall having a first pipe aperture sized and positioned to be aligned with a first side opening of the cast base;a second side wall having a second pipe aperture sized and positioned to be aligned with a second side opening of the cast base; anda liner top wall disposed radially outwardly of said entry aperture diameter and extending between said entry aperture and said first side wall;a flow channel extending between said first and second pipe apertures and in fluid communication with the entry aperture; anda liner lid received in the entry aperture, the liner lid comprising: a first lid portion sealingly engaged with a sidewall of the entry aperture; anda second lid portion coupled to the first lid portion and moveable in an upward direction about an axis which extends across said entry aperture between a closed configuration in which the second lid portion is sealingly engaged with the entry aperture and an open configuration in which the second lid portion is disengaged from the entry aperture. 2. The liner of claim 1, wherein the first lid portion is selectively sealingly engaged with at least one of a vertical sidewall of the entry aperture and a horizontal wall of the entry aperture. 3. The liner of claim 1, wherein the first lid portion and the second lid portion are hingedly coupled to one another and pivotable with respect to liner. 4. The liner of claim 1, wherein at least one of the first and second lid portions comprise stiffener ribs along a bottom surface thereof. 5. The liner of claim 1, wherein an outer periphery of the liner lid is supported by an upper axial end surface of the liner at the entry aperture. 6. The liner of claim 1, wherein: the entry aperture of the liner comprises a tubular structure extending upwardly away from the flow channel; andthe entry aperture includes a bench disposed within the entry aperture, the bench defining a surface extending inwardly from a wall of the tubular structure toward a longitudinal axis of the tubular structure; andan outer periphery of the liner lid supported by the bench at the entry aperture. 7. The liner of claim 1, further comprising a seal engaged with an inner surface of the entry aperture and the liner lid to substantially seal the flow channel from an area above the entry aperture when the second lid portion is in the closed configuration. 8. The liner of claim 7, wherein the seal is mounted to a mounting rib formed at the periphery of the liner lid. 9. The liner of claim 1, further comprising: a cast base comprising an upper opening aligned with the entry aperture, a first pipe opening aligned with the first pipe aperture, and a second side opening aligned with the second pipe aperture;a plurality of gaskets respectively disposed at the first pipe aperture and the second pipe aperture and adapted to receive a pipe of a pipe system; anda flat portion formed in bottom portions of the first pipe aperture and the second pipe aperture and interrupting the otherwise circular profile thereof, the flat portion sized and configured to maintain a substantially coaxial alignment between the pipe and the respective aperture. 10. The liner of claim 1, wherein the second lid portion is substantially horizontal in the closed configuration and pivoted away from horizontal in the open configuration. 11. A manhole structure, comprising: a cast manhole including a east base, and a riser extending upwardly from said cast base, the riser including a lower end attached to the cast base and an opposite, upper end; anda liner cast within the east base of the cast manhole, the liner comprising: an entry aperture defining an entry aperture diameter, the entry aperture spaced below the upper end of the riser wherein at least a portion of the riser is exposed and not covered by the liner;a first side wall having a first pipe aperture sized and positioned to be aligned with a first side opening of the cast base;a second side wall having a second pipe aperture sized and positioned to be aligned with a second side opening of the cast base; anda liner top wall disposed radially outwardly of said entry aperture diameter and extending between said entry aperture and said first side wall;a flow channel extending between said first and second pipe apertures and in fluid communication with the entry aperture; anda liner lid received in the entry aperture with the cast manhole riser extending upwardly above said liner lid, the liner lid comprising: a first lid portion sealingly engaged with a sidewall of the entry aperture; anda second lid portion coupled to the first lid portion and moveable about an axis which extends across said entry aperture between a closed configuration in which the second lid portion is sealingly engaged with the entry aperture and an open configuration in which the second lid portion is disengaged from the entry aperture. 12. The manhole structure of claim 11, wherein the first lid portion is selectively sealingly engaged with at least one of a vertical sidewall of the entry aperture and a horizontal wall of the entry aperture. 13. The manhole structure of claim 11, wherein the first lid portion and the second lid portion are hingedly coupled to one another and pivotable with respect to liner. 14. The manhole structure of claim 11, wherein at least one of the first and second lid portions comprise stiffener ribs along a bottom surface thereof. 15. The manhole structure of claim 11, wherein an outer periphery of the liner lid is supported by an upper axial end surface of the liner at the entry aperture. 16. The manhole structure of claim 11, wherein: the entry aperture of the liner comprises a tubular structure extending upwardly away from the flow channel; andthe entry aperture includes a bench disposed within the entry aperture, the bench defining a surface extending inwardly from a wall of the tubular structure toward a longitudinal axis of the tubular structure; andan outer periphery of the liner lid supported by the bench at the entry aperture. 17. The manhole structure of claim 11, further comprising a seal engaged with an inner surface of the entry aperture and the liner lid to substantially seal the flow channel from an area above the entry aperture when the second lid portion is in the closed configuration. 18. The manhole structure of claim 17, wherein the seal is mounted to a mounting rib formed at the periphery of the liner lid. 19. The manhole structure of claim 11, wherein the second lid portion is moveable in an upward direction about the axis between the closed configuration the open configuration.
