Challenges and solutions
Close attention and collaboration were required in the design phase to ensure the building would accommodate all the different products our client wished to store. The final design was engineered for six individual precast bins, each for different grain and fertiliser. Each bin had its own access sliding door for ease of loading and unloading. The sliding doors were designed to accommodate unloading trucks with their bins still partially in the air.
