Description
A cement monolithic silo in rural wisconsin.
"By the early twentieth century three types of concrete silos were in active use: monolithic concrete silos, both solid and hollow wall, and concrete block silos. These early types were soon joined by concrete stave silos which soon predominated.
Monolithic Concrete Silos. Monolithic concrete silos were constructed out of a solid mass of concrete. The common thickness of the wall is six inches, adequate for a diameter of 25 feet and a height of 50 to 60 feet. Typically such silos employ vertical and horizontal steel reinforcement.The silos were constructed using wood inner forms and galvanized sheet steel outer forms.(Farmbuildingguide.org n.d. )"
