How to Calculate Storage Capacities:
SHELLED CORN
Round storage: multiply the
diameter by its equal number;
i.e. 12 foot diameter x 12. Then multiply that total by footage depth.
Multiply your sum by .630.
Rectangular storage: multiply the
footage width x depth x length. Multiply
this total by 4 and divide by 5. The
result is now 5616 bushels of No. 2 Corn
@ 15.5% moisture.
Piles: when cone shaped multiply
the diameter by the equal number. Then
multiply that total by greatest footage
depth. Multiply your sum by .210.
