Settlement of a Silo Subjected to Cyclic Loading
The paper presents the vertical settlement values for a corn silo located at Ca' Mello, close to Porto Tolle (Italy), and compares it with the theoretical results obtained using a simplified...
Pin Piles Save Silos
The United Grain Corp. annually ships about 200 million bushels of wheat and other grains to destinations around the world from its leased facility on the Columbia River at Vancouver,...
Design and Performance of Two Port Silos on Improved Ground
Design of Large Capacity Coal Silos for Service Life
Design and construction of Large Capacity Coal Silos for service life requires a careful consideration of the silo configuration as well as the material handling system. This paper presents...
Condition Assessment Experience with Silos and Bunkers
This paper presents a methodology for condition assessment of coal silos and bunkers for retrofitting projects. Some typical problems such as corrosion, erosion, vibrations and buckling...
Linear Elastic Finite Element Analysis of Axisymmetric Shells on Elastic Foundations
Thin-walled cylindrical silos containing compacted bulk solids show a significant increase in strength over empty silos under meridional compression. A finite element model is used which...
