New sweep augers arrived this afternoon. More photos hopefully tomorrow, with the final pour for the first base.
This is very interesting. We are having a 700 ton stirring bin put up later this spring, the entire floor is a mesh though, for drying, so I think the groundworks will be simpler.
Your base will be a bit technical, to have a fully vented floor, but probably done in one pour if it's a 6m diameter.
I'd be interested to see the size of your fan and your airflow volumes for using heated air.
It's 12.8 metre diameter with an 18.5kw fan.
It will be feeding our chicken feed mill and we intend to blend wheat and rye or barley in it. We've added the drying floor and heater because our mobile dryer is 30+ years old so it represents a cost effective way of replacing it whilst we're building a silo for another purpose if you like.
Will the stirrers be doing the blending or do you have a gravimetric/volumetric type feeder to measure each ingredient into the silo?
Who gets the job with the leaf blower when it's down to the sweepings upLooking North, first base ready for steelwork (should be arriving next week).
