  • Premiere partie du video montrant la déconstruction dun silo 18x70 en bloc, pour le remplacer par un silo Harvestore 20x90 avec videur conventionel.
    Merci à Silo J.M. Lambert et leurs travailleurs, ainsi qu'a toutes les personnes qui on travaillés de près ou de loin a la réussite du chantier.

    Someone putting up a Harvestore? Man, I thought everyone learned their lesson on Harvetores over the past 40 years.
    Goood luck with it. I hope it treats you well.

      Lots of people in the eastern canada build up harvestore, longer lifespan than the concrete one. We dont have enough headcount to do bunker and doesnt have space either. Anyway it seem like the best solution to our silage storage overall.

    They never did that when I saw them put a 20 by 80 put up when I was growing up in northeastern Pennsylvania

    So you had a crusher come in and crush the staves? Then used it for base? Does it pack well?

      @vincentlamothe1375  Před 10 měsíci +4

      Yes, it did do a good base and cost less in material, plus we didnt had to pay to get it picked up

      @@vincentlamothe1375 that's great to know. We have a couple stave silo's that haven't been used in 30 years and we're building a shop wondering if we could do that exact thing. So I guess I'll be calling my local crusher!

    Why did they put pylons in the ground under the the base of foundation

      Because we have over 100feet of clay, the cost of drilling post to the rock was the same as the silo itself....they call that technique "basketting" it does the same principle as when your rubber boot get stuck in the mud by succion, and it cost half the price.

    Is that a haylage unit. Interesting video, enjoy your Harvestore.

      Yes it is for shredded hay (im not english i dont know how to say it lol) but we are very pleased with the silo indeed.

      @@vincentlamothe1375 Haylage is normally about 15% less moisture than silage. More dry matter intake for the cows. Higher milk production...

      We used our Harvestore for haylage, corn silage, green oats, whatever we were chopping. Often fed out the bottom and loaded into the top on the same day.

      We don't have enough cow or storage space for ag bag unfortunately, but to each their own, we got neighbor who have bunker and are plenty satisfied

    how many yards for the base foundation ?

    Whats the slump when you run concrete thru a pump? Water weakens concrete.

      Cant help you with that, all i know is with all the armature and fiberglass poured in the concrete, it was the highest concrete hardness standard in our province.

      The concrete slab were worn out and it has already been resprayed inside, plus we wanted to increase our silage volume, so we bought a bigger one

      @@vincentlamothe1375 Thank you, you answered all my questions. I too wondered why you would take down the old silo and not use a bunker. I guess it is the solution to your unique problems. On the farm i worked on we had two 200' bunkers open at both ends so we could have four faces if needed.
