Cubic meters

[Hilly]

How many cubic meters are these ?

 

[Nearly]

2.4m wide, 2.4m high, 13 m long. 75cu m?
8 x 8 x40 less the side thickness.

Common size was 67cu yd (not metres) when we packed up in 2019, I don't think the standard grain tipper will be over 70cuyd

Im designing a feed hopper and i like to get two load of pig pellets in but maybe to ambitious and need two that hold one load … which actually might even suit me better if i thjnk about it.

have you a shed you could tip a couple of loads in?
then just have a hopper that you fill with the loader.
one of these.

They will carry 29.5 tonnes max, depending on the tare of the unit, so you want to be able to hold 60 tonnes. Find out what the volume of 60 tonnes of pig grub is. Probably add a couple of cubic metres for good measure

I want a bin to keep
The whole load in as need floor tip for other things.
Charles jeans delivering a secondhand 30 ton bin but i need another 2 and they are hard to find ..so we are going
To make our own to my own design , i think im to ambitious with two loads in one Nd will make two to hold one load each i think .

Hold a bit over a full load (we have over 50t capacity) then you won't need to time ordering the next lot for when you are nearly empty.

Aye its a pain int ass at moment having to time order right on the button …

If you have one big bin you'll still have the same problem otherwise you'll end up with a few ton in the bottom that never moves. Assuming it behaves like grain and draws from the top down through the middle.

Two bins will allow you to empty right out, turn about.

Bet its nearer 45 cubic meters

Compound feed is around 700kg to cubic metre,
Meal is around 620kg cubic metre,
If that's any help
