Long Span for Long Piles

If mines, ports, power and cement plants around the world have one thing in common, it’s the need to have enormous stockpiles of dry bulk material. And, managing these stockpiles for greater sustainability, efficiency, safety and protection is an increasing challenge.

Parabolic: These work best for the longest spans with heavy gravity loads such as snow, and moderate wind loads.

Circular: Ideal for high wind loads.

Acute: This geometry is designed to carry concentrated loads such as walkways or tripper cars, and to shed snow.

Compound curve: Alternative to Bent when space is constrained.
