Bulk goods hall for grain storage

HALTEC realised a steel building for warehousing grain and other agricultural products for a farmer from Hesse. The special feature: the hall construction is mounted on a surrounding 3.0 m high concrete wall, which serves as a bulkhead for the stored grain.

The 1,250 m² bulk goods hall with a saddle roof is used by a farmer in Hesse to store grain and canopy vehicles, trailers and equipment. The sandwich elements in the roof provide protection against condensation in the hall and ensure that the grain remains dry at all times. The hall stands on a 3.0 metre high, solid concrete wall, against which the grain can be poured and stored safely over a lengthy period. Above the concrete wall is a trapezoidal panelling that provides further protection for dry grain storage.

The industrial sectional gates have a width of 6.0 metres and guarantee easy access with large agricultural equipment for transporting the grain. Passenger access is via the wicket door integrated into the gate.

A 5.0 m cantilevered canopy is attached to the front of the steel hall. The farmer's produce is stored safely and dryly underneath and other equipment can be stored underneath.

Protected warehousing

The grain is stored safely and dryly in the large bulk goods hall.

Row of windows in ridge inside the hall

The row of windows in ridge illuminates the hall with plenty of daylight.

Easy access to the hall

The industrial sectional gates ensure access with large agricultural equipment. The gates can be conveniently opened and closed using the radio remote control.

Solid hall façade

The solid concrete retaining walls can be poured up to 3.0 metres high and run all the way round.

Solid construction

The agricultural hall is built on top of the concrete wall. This means that there are no steel supports in the area of the bulkheads.

Protection in outdoor areas

The produce is temporarily stored under the large canopy and numerous appliances are stored underneath.
