Subject: RE: How Thick Should Concrete Be Under Grain Bin?


If you put your tube in the concrete, make sure you have an incline in the tube to drain moisture to the discharge end of the bin. (outside) It is good to do this even with one above the floor. You want your floor to be level even if you are not putting in a drying floor, as if you decide to install one in the future, your floor is level to make installation of the drying floor simple. I would recommend beveling the edge of your floor outside the sidewall of the bin when you pour your concrete floor to permit drainage outside the sidewall for ice, rain, etc.
