Abstract (en)

The silo has a cylindrical form with variable height and diameter, and is carried out in prefabricated A.V.C. sectors. In the lower part, a discharging cell is foreseen with an upper separation slab and central hole for positioning a rotating cutter to extract the ensiled product from below. On a massive foundation (2), the discharging cell is made by means of a set of prefabricated sectors (1a) and a cutter bearing slab is superposed by previous mounting of another set of sectors which form a ring for the casting containment. The silo cell is obtained by composition in vertical succession of annulars consisting of two or three sectors connected one to another by means of steel boltings. The joints between the annulars (1c) and the sectors are sealed with waterproof material (4). For completion, the covering slab in three components is set up. The medium permits quick laying times, variable sizes, a high reliability since prefabricated components made in the factory are employed, a consistent installation saving, the possibility of disassembling the silo at very low costs and of reassembling it on another place without damaging the components.
