Galvanized hopper bottom silo’s capacity is ranging from 13 m³ to 2000 m³. The all components of the Silos are galvanized including supporting leg structure and circular ring beam.
The bottom of the silo is conical hopper either 45 degree or 60 degree depends on the grain to be stored. The hopper angle is to be decided on angle of repose of the grain stored and its other characteristics.

The silo is designed considering various conditions at site like heavy rain-falling area, humidity, cold, hot & earthquake etc i.e. for all seismic zone.
