Popis: Brazil is one of the largest agribusiness producers in the world, however, Brazilian competitiveness is impaired when the agricultural product, at lower costs, reaches its destination at higher costs than global competitors due to the deficiency of the grain storage system and transport infrastructure. A viable alternative is the construction of a storage silo on the rural property, with low-cost prefabricated parts that can be transferred to other locations, with easy demobilization and assembly, if necessary. This paper has the objective to design a precast concrete silo with low weight, modular, structurally analyzed by the SAP 2000 V20 software, and presented the cost estimated at 15.6% of the cost of a conventional precast bulk silo, with the same storage capacity.
