Important Pre-assembly Info
SIDEWALL SHEET IDENTIFICATION:
The bin wall sheets are color coded on the end of the sheets for easy reference as follows:
Red - 17 Gage Black - 12 Gage
Blue/Yellow - 15 Gage Orange - 11 Gage
Yellow - 14 Gage Brown - 10 Gage
To determine the number of sheets per ring, divide the bin diameter by three:
(ie: 36’ diameter bin divided by 3 = 12 sheets per ring.) Note: there are 36
roof sheets.
