Grain bin roof connection.

With today s larger bins and recent tendency to store above the safe 13 to 15 moisture range it s highly unlikely this action will stop any of the issues involved. Grain bin roofs are fragile while being built though surprisingly strong once completed. Weather tight connection of the roof to the sidewall prevents moisture from entering the bin keeping your feed protected from moisture. Handrails provide bolt directly to the bin roof for additional safety.

Roof stairs provide easier access to the bin s peak cap. Heavy duty galvanized steel treads feature a non slip surface. Multiple discharge sizes the standard discharge opening of 16 406 4 mm. In addition to scaling to greater heights and the capacity to store more grain the everest bin design features innovative changes to the roof structure body sheets bin stiffeners anchoring systems and accessories while also meeting or exceeding new grain industry standards.

Grain bin foundations are designed to secure the bins against 90 mph 145 kph winds. Remaining rings of sheets the lower sheets are installed one ring at a time with proper lapping. The bin anchor system supplies a strong load bearing connection to the foundation. If the peak hasn t been pulled down to the height of the grain at the wall or further do this as quickly as possible to promote airflow in the middle of the bin.
