[QUOTE="Woldgrain Storage, post: 7606469, member: 17400"] Access to the top of the silos is needed for a variety of reasons, [LIST] [*]Maintenance/servicing/repairs to the conveyors and slides above the silos [*]Crop monitoring and sampling [*]Checking stock levels [/LIST] In addition to the staircase there is also a vertical ladder between the two silos. I'll get a good photo of it later today. That's a big question. It is not straightforward to compare a site like ours with shed storage. The decision to store in silos rather than sheds is more to do with the capacity it creates and the flexibility of storing and potentially blending many different grades of crop. A shed on the same land instead of these two new silos would probably store a third of the tonnage at best. This expansion works out at about £130/mt including all the handling infrastructure of conveyors & elevators, all the concrete & groundworks, temperature monitoring, fans, an additional outloading spout and software.
