1. Introduction ATTENTION: READ BEFORE USING THIS MANUAL All instructions should be construed as recommendations only. Because actual installation will vary according to local conditions, The GSI Group, Inc. assumes no liability for the results arising from the use of such recommendations. Always make sure to use the correct tables and charts for the bin and soil conditions at building site. Determine the following before using this manual: Bin Style 1.

2. General Foundation Requirements for GSI Bins Requirements The following construction related notes pertain to the installation of farm bin foundations. Selecting the Proper Site The selected site should be level, firm and free from underlying debris. The bin can be installed satisfactorily on slopes, but as the slope increases, additional labor and materials are required for the foundation. The concrete foundation surface must be level.
2. General Foundation Requirements for GSI Bins Prepare the Foundation Forms After scribing the diameter of the foundation, proceed by digging the foundation’s footing. This consists of a large circular trench dug just inside the foundation line. (Refer to foundation details (frost free pad, inverted “T” and T-Cap) of corresponding bins and tanks in this manual for necessary information.) Once the footing has been dug, you are ready to build the forms.
2. General Foundation Requirements for GSI Bins Figure 2C Alternate Foundation Form Place the Reinforcement Once the forms and trench have been prepared, begin the placement of reinforcement rods at various levels in the foundation’s footing. See the appropriate charts and drawings in this manual for the bin to determine requirements and positions of the reinforcement. The reinforcement rods offer their greatest strength when lapped properly and connected by wiring or welding.
2. General Foundation Requirements for GSI Bins Vane Axial Fan Pad Placement of the Fan Pad: Transitions/Fans/Heaters Only. If a fan or fan and heater will be installed, refer to Figure 2D to determine the concrete pad size. 1. The top of this pad should be level with the top of the bin’s foundation. 2. Recommended pad thickness is 4" minimum. 3. Front of pad should be perpendicular to bin wall. 4. Pad for heater not required, but if it is to added, pour the pad to cover both locations.
2. General Foundation Requirements for GSI Bins Centrifugal Fan Pad 1. Fan pad should be poured 2" below the top of the bin foundation for all centrifugal fans. 2. A pad for heaters is not required, but is recommended. 3. Recommended pad thickness is 4". 4. If a downwind heater pad is to be installed, the pad width (“C”) should be 48" and extended toward the bin by 33". 5. Fan discharge should be centered on centerline of bin. 6. The fan pad should be perpendicular to bin wall.
2. General Foundation Requirements for GSI Bins Anchor Bolt Placement Having poured and leveled the concrete, use the center stake and straight 2 x 4 again to find the bolt circle radius for the outside hold-down brackets. Select a starting point and stretch a pre-measured chord along the imaginary circle formed by the bolt circle radius. Take into consideration the placement of these bolts so as not to interfere with the positions of bin doors and transitions.

When anchoring the bin, be sure the vertical seams of the bin/silo align with the U-bolts or single anchor bolts in the foundation.

3. FCDL Series Anchor Bolt Charts The dimensions in this chart on Pages 18-20 apply only to the FCDL series. For WC or NC series commercial tanks, refer the appropriate section of PNEG-318. Refer to proper chart on Pages 18-20 to find the anchor chord that corresponds to the bin that is going to be built. Start with one anchor bolt and work from it to the left to locate one quarter of the anchor bolts, then to the right to locate another quarter of the bolts.
