FS Construction Services grain bin project in winter

Winter Grain Bin Project

This past winter, our team took advantage of the warm, dry days and built a 36 ft. diameter, 7-ring tall grain bin with a capacity of 21,000 bushels. They also installed exterior stairs, a horizontal power sweep, and a centrifugal fan.

Grain Bin Built During Preseason

Earlier this year we took advantage of the dry weather and quickly constructed a 30’ diameter, 6-ring tall, grain bin. This structure had a capacity of 14,000 bushels and came with two down augers, a power sweep, and an exterior staircase.

This project was finished just in time for the year’s harvest. We installed a 21’, 5-ring tall hopper bin with a 6,950 bushel capacity. We also added a fan for aeration and a twin hopper gate.

Recently we constructed a 36’ diameter, 6-ring tall grain storage bin with a capacity of 20,700 bushels. We also installed a 10hp centrifugal fan, a 10” vertical unload, and stairs around the outside of the bin for easy and safe roof access.

Simple Yet Effective Grain Storage

Recently we installed a 48’ diameter, 10-ring tall grain bin with a 60.900 bushel capacity. We installed a horizontal power sweep in the new bin but also installed some additions to attach it to an existing drying bin. We built stairs with a safety rail to connect the two units as well as a cross auger so the storage bin can be filled directly from the drying bin.

 

New Grain Storage for an Easy Fix

Grain Storage Doubled

Last year we had the opportunity to double our client’s grain storage in a simple, straightforward way. We installed a 36’ diameter, 7-ring tall grain bin next to an existing bin and added stairs in between to connect them. We also installed two new fans for increased drying capabilities.

New 42’ Grain Bin for Growing Farm

Recently we had the opportunity to vastly expand an existing grain storage site by adding a 42’ diameter grain bin, a T20 dryer, and a 5” air system. Additionally, an existing bin was converted to wet storage and we added an auger with an optional bypass kit.
