Pressure in Silo is dominated by Frictional PhenomenaThere are many misleading on pressure calculating , not unerstanding the condition of stress nor the condiction which leads to failureMteal and concrete Silos behave very different, different crictical consideration should be take on account (speak about it at 3.1)

Note: Kp/Kf at first considered to be order of 9 and then 6, this much pressure increase had been never reported before, several theories (Arnold 1980, Jenke 1973) showed that Kp/Kf should be around 2.5Force increase in horizontal directionForce increase in vertical direction810.12.2013Pressure changes during discharge of solids (emptying)
Note: The most critical finding for silo design was the pattern of unsymmetrical pressures, both after filling and during discharge. The ratio of the largest sustained pressure to the smallest at a single level could be high as 2.8 under static condiction after filling and 5.6 during dischargePieper & Wentzel 1964, in Braunschweig, much of the following comes from their work 910.12.20132.

10.12.20133. The importance of flow patternA modern describtion (EN 1991-4 2007) divides the possible flow pattern into three main categories under symetrical condition
1310.12.20133. The importance of folw patternIt is possible to determine with reasonable precision wether the silo will exhibit mass or funnel flow
Note: Structural researche studies have shown that funnel flow is not critial to the strenght of metal and it is indeed beneficial (Rotter 1986a; Teng & Rotter 1991)1410.12.20133. The importance of folw pattern
Typical pattern of average symetric wall pressure after filling and during emptying, for different flow channel geometriesNote: Here man can obviously see why mass flow is critical in design1510.12.20133.1. Eccentric discharge and its consequence
Flow channel geometry, typical pressure pattern and vertical wall stress during eccentric discharge
1610.12.20133.1. Eccentric discharge and its consequenceThe most damaging condition for most silos is unplanned occourence of unsymmetrical flow regimes, if the flow channel makes contact with Silo wallIt is mabye necessary to have off-center discharge outlet for functional reasons and conditions in silo such as blockage of the feeders, therml or moisture or segregation of content.1710.12.20134. Structural damage and its cause, reinforcement4.1. Steel and Aluminium Silos1. Bolted and welded construction:The first big differnce in metal silos are the Joints that is used in metal Silos construction. The joints are the lines of weakness, so the should be made stronger than is strictly necessary.2. Brusting of vertical wall: Brusting failurs are very uncommon and are almost all found in bolted silos where a joint details has failed.3. Axial compression bulcking of vertical wall: This failur is not also so common but should be seriously considered because this mode of failure is often dramatically catastrophic. It can be also result of unsymmetric pressure against the silo wall.
1810.12.20134. Structural damage and its cause
Note: Bulking under axial compression occur at very low stresses compared with the material strength (perhaps at 20 Mpa in a metal with yield stress 250 Mpa)1910.12.20134.1. Steel and Aluminium Silos4. Eccentric discharge buckling of the vertical wallThis is the commonest cause of axial compression buckels, where the low pressure against the wall in the flow channel cause high vertical compressive stresses over part of the perimeter near the mid-height of the silo, in which the whole silo falls over in the direction of discharge outlet.5. External pressure buckling of the vertical wall When a Silo is empty the thin wall is very sensitive to buckling under extreme wind.6. Shear buckling of the vertical wallUnsymmetrical top pile producing different height of solid-wall contact7. Rupture, plastic deformation and buckling in hopperHoppers made in bolted constructions are sensitive to fracture.

Structural damage and its cause4.2 Concrete SilosGeneraly Concrete is good in compression but can not resist tensile stress at all .When concrete is subjected to tension, it cracks at right angles to the tension.Concrete should be reinforced for sure.The simpleset way is to prestresse the concrete with steel. It can avoid the tension.Vertical compressions does not usually cause problemThe thickness and good compressive strength all contribute to have an exellent strength
2310.12.20134.2 Concrete Silos1. Ductilty and delaminationConcrete is a brittle material, but most structural design relies on ductile manner. In particular shear failures in concrete wall can cause serious cracking. With appropriate reinforcement concrete structure behave also like ductile. An other brittle problem delamination, layer of concrete separate.2. Cracking under bending moment:The main problem of conrete is cracking under bending moment induced by unsymmetric pressure3. Crack observation: care must be taken wether the cracks are caused by throu-thickness tension (very serious) or external surface tension.
