WHITE WATER SILO: 5000 Cubic Meters – project in the UK
In 2017, our advanced equipment was used for the construction of a white water silo in the United Kingdom.

Silo specifications

The silo featured impressive dimensions and the use of the highest quality materials:

  • Diameter: 16.3 m
  • Height: 25 m
  • Total Weight: 89 metric tons

Base materials:

  • Duplex stainless steel 1.4462
  • Austenitic stainless steel 1.4404

Innovative welding and assembly methods

The welding process used a mechanized MIG/MAG system with the use of solid wire and flux-cored wire (FCW).

Our standard assembly system ensured precise construction, including:

  • Roller beds.
  • Jacks.
  • Tank rotators.
  • Tack weld stands.
  • Mechanized system for welding both circumferential and vertical joints, as well as stiffening rings.

Additional Features and Equipment

The silo’s roof was designed with:

  • Handrails and walkways around the perimeter.
  • Walkway leading to the center of the roof.

Stairs and platforms were delivered in collaboration with our business partner – TLC EU.
