Project Description: Slipforming & Cone Bottoms of Cement Silos

Summary of Project:

McC Inc. was subcontracted to slipform silos for a New Cement Manufacturing Facility.  We slipformed (4) concrete silos; (1) 15’ diameter x 90’ tall stacker tube, (1)  81’ diameter x 98’ tall emergency silo, (1) 52.5’ diameter x 165’ tall cement storage silo and (1) 52.5’ diameter x 160’ tall blending silo.  We also poured a 10’ thick elevated concrete floor in the cement silo with an inverted 60 degree x 33’-6 tall cone poured monolithically.  McC also poured an 8’ thick elevated concrete floor in the blending silo with an inverted 60 degree x 33’-6 tall cone poured monolithically.  We revised original plans from jump form to slipform design.
