Have you the space to put a large asphalt slab, no walls, just concrete edging?
A clamp with no walls takes alot more sheeting up than one with walls.

Hello
Looking for recommendations for silage clamp construction contractors to correct ssafo wales regulations.
Anyone had one build recently for anything between 500 and1000 tons.
I have seen a quote for a 3375 m3 clamp for less than 80k
Remarkable!
Any others out there ARK ag .. need not apply thanks as i have received your quote.
No, just a lip you can drive over, just to contain runoff. I think it may be more economic than walls, you’re making a mushroom shaped clamp. Seems to work ok for the guy farming Withybush aerodrome. I think @Headless chicken knows a farm where they do similar.

Thankyou for sharing that with us.
Is that fully compliant with regs?
How high is that wall?
What depth of asphalt?
And being extra nosey what was approx cost?
We have a pit that was built in 1988 with asphalt floor and another with concrete floor late 70's, the asphalt floor one is still in super condition where as the concrete one is a bit rough now. Although maybe you can get an additive to add to concrete now to protect against effluent, i'm not sure.What are the benefits of the asphalt over concrete?
I always thought asphalt wouldn’t stand up to the effluent like concrete would or is it a special type of asphalt ?We have a pit that was built in 1988 with asphalt floor and another with concrete floor late 70's, the asphalt floor one is still in super condition where as the concrete one is a bit rough now.

It's the concrete that doesn't stand up to the effluent, it's just ordinary asphalt, the only weakness with asphalt would be a bent tine on a grab would dig into the asphaltI always thought asphalt wouldn’t stand up to the effluent like concrete would or is it a special type of asphalt ?
I just remembered something this morning, spilling oil, diesel or petrol on asphalt would have the same effect as effluent would have on concrete. That's why the area around fuel pumps in petrol stations are done with concreteI always thought asphalt wouldn’t stand up to the effluent like concrete would or is it a special type of asphalt ?
