Abstract

The foundation and floor for a new or used grain bin performs several functions. In addition to supporting the grain and the bin, it protects the grain from moisture and rodents, prevents settlement of the bin, and anchors the bin. Good design and careful construction are necessary to assure that the bin will perform in a satisfactory manner. For efficient operation, a bin floor must be capable of serving as an integrated part of the total grain handling system.
