At SCAFCO Grain Systems Company, our engineers keep seismic conditions in mind at every stage of your project design. Why? See for yourself! Look how our bolts and stiffeners held up against our competitor’s after an 8.8-magnitude earthquake at this site in Chile.
Designed for severe seismic zone 4 conditions, stiffeners and anchor bolts kept this SCAFCO silo standing strong through a major earthquake in Chile.
On the same site during the same earthquake, our competitor’s anchor bolts and stiffeners failed. The silo collapsed.
