GRAINWALLING PROFILES

GR60 Dimensions  GR100 Dimensions
 

Using profiles which incorporate stiffing ribs, it is possible to design and produce grain stores using GR60 and GR100 profiles which are available in a choice of three thicknesses of zinc coated steel to BSEN10147: 1992 FeE280G Z275 and in lengths to suit individual contracts.

It is usually advisable to use 0.90mm or 1.20mm steel at ground level to resist impact damage, however the panels are available in 0.7mm thicknesses with plastisol coating in a range of 12 colours.

 
 

VERTICAL APPLICATION

For single span conditions sheets are supported at the top and bottom by continuous supports.

The stored height of the grain may be increased by the introduction of  intermediate supports at various positions within the height.

Two alternative positions are shown in the tables, (left) one being with the support at mid-span (H2) and one third of the height from the base (H3)

    SPANNING CAPABILITIES.

NOTE.  GRAIN STIRRERS increase the loading on the grain wall from the grain; if stirrers are used, the span figures given in the tables below should be halved.
