    Bunkers and silos are storage structures for materials like grains, cereals, coal, and cement. Bunkers have a shallow depth where the plane of rupture from the bottom meets the surface of the material before reaching the opposite side, while silos have a greater depth where the plane of rupture does not intersect the surface level. A bin is generally considered a silo if its depth is greater than twice its breadth.

    BUNKERS AND SILOS

    INTRODUCTION
    Bunkers and silos are the structures used for the storage of materials like grains,cereals,coal,cement etc.both bunkers and silos are commonly called as bins. If the depth and breadth of the bin are such that the plane of rupture meets the surface of the material,before it strikes the opposite side of the bin ,it is called a shallow bin or a bunker. However when the plane of rupture drawn from the bottom edge of the bin does not intersect the surface level of the material,it is called dip bin or silo.ordinarily,a bin may be said to be a silo,if depth is greater than twice the breadth
