What This Workbook Does

Designs cylindrical metal silos to European codes — the load envelope per EN 1991-4 (actions on silos and tanks) combined with shell stability and strength per EN 1993-1-6 (strength and stability of shell structures). Built for storage silo designers in cement, mining, grain, chemical, and bulk materials industries.

What’s Inside the Workbook

• Silo geometry input — diameter, total height, cylindrical and conical sections, eccentricity of outlet
• Bulk solids properties per EN 1991-4 Annex E — density, wall friction, internal friction, lateral pressure ratio
• Filling loads — vertical and horizontal wall pressure per EN 1991-4 Section 5
• Discharge loads — Janssen-based discharge pressures with patch loads
• Hopper loads — Walker / Jenike approach
• Wind loads on empty silo per EN 1991-1-4
• EN 1993-1-6 shell design — LS1 plastic, LS2 cyclic plasticity, LS3 buckling, LS4 fatigue
• Stiffener requirements for shell buckling control
• Anchor and foundation reactions
• Datasheet output in EN-compliant format

Who This Workbook Is For

• Silo design engineers in cement, mining, grain, chemicals
• Senior structural engineers on storage projects under Eurocode
• EPC project teams delivering to European, UAE, Asian Eurocode-adopting clients
• Steel fabricators with in-house silo design

Why This Workbook Is Worth ₹29,099

A complete silo design from scratch in Eurocode normally takes a senior structural engineer 4–6 days — combining EN 1991-4 load generation, EN 1993-1-6 shell stability, hopper design, anchor design, and detailing output. This workbook compresses that to a single auditable Excel run. For a consultancy delivering even 2 silos per year, the time saving covers the cost on the first project.

Frequently Asked Questions

EN code or US code?
This is Eurocode. For US (ACI 313 reinforced concrete silo or ANSI/ASAE silos), request a custom version.

Concrete silos?
This workbook is steel silos per EN 1993-1-6. Reinforced concrete silos (EN 1992-3) require different design treatment.

Seismic design?
The current workbook is gravity + wind + bulk solids. Seismic per EN 1998-4 is an optional add-on.

Do you offer full silo design as a service?
Yes — 3D-LABS delivers complete silo design with drawings and reports under our Structural Design service.

Custom version (US codes, seismic)?
Request a custom quote.

Need Full Silo Design Service?

If you need complete silo design with detailed drawings, stress reports, and fabrication support rather than the calculation workbook, 3D-LABS delivers full silo and storage structure design services. Learn more about Structural Design or request a quote.
