Popis: The relationship pressure equals exp [a + B (distance above floor)^^] was developed to estimate lateral pressures for Irish potatoes with wet or dry surfaces for a 5.3 m (17.5 ft) pile height. This applies to bins in which the bin width exceeds the pile depth. When dry surface conditions existed, this relationship more accurately predicted wall reactions and bending moments for simply supported beam conditions than the equivalent fluid density analogy. When wet surface conditions existed, there were no major differences in predicted reactions and moments for either method of representing lateral pressures.
