Practical precast storage for bulk farm materials

Wade’s precast concrete storage bunker provides a heavy-duty three-sided bay for storing bulk materials such as feed and fertiliser. The system uses 3 m side wall panels with a choice of 3 m, 4 m or 5 m back wall to suit different storage requirements.

Horizontal reinforcing loops are cast into the panels so the walls can be tied into the concrete floor slab. Tongue-and-groove ends allow further side wall panels to be added, extending the bunker in 3 m increments when additional storage space is required.

Optional covers can also be supplied for applications where stored material needs greater protection from the weather.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Floor slab and installation

  • The bunker panels are designed to be tied into a concrete floor slab using the horizontal reinforcing loops cast into the bottom of the walls.
  • Allow for panel weights when planning delivery, access and lifting. Individual panels range from approximately 1.5 t to 2.5 t depending on configuration.
  • The supplied specification does not provide floor slab thickness, foundation preparation, reinforcement design or lifting requirements. These should be confirmed with Wade for the proposed installation.
  • If a Coast Sliding Roof is being considered, confirm the bunker dimensions and roof configuration before ordering. Coast states that its custom roof systems require bins no wider than 6 m and less than 12 m long.
