60x30 grainstore

[J 1177]

I'm thinking out loud here but would a shed 60x30 or 60x35 shed (restricted site) hold 220 tons of wheat? and would the shed need to be designed as a grainstore (force loading) rather than a general purpose shed. Is there much of a price difference in this?
A small shed like this would idealy hold all my wheat and free up 2 bigger sheds for cattle and milling.

My old grainstore is 60 x 40 with a grain tunnel down the middle, (about a meter wide), we only go up to 2.6m high because of this tunnel. We regularly get 160-170ton of wheat per side, using a grain wall in each door way to fill up the front so making the most of the space available.

Yes it would hold that quality of grain. It would have to be designed for purpose but on that size would mean larger steels on back and sides than a building normally used on a building that size

Thanks. It's just I'm governed by the size of the site that's available in the yard that I can get wagons to. Other options are in the back field but that involves a lot of cost to get artics to it.
