Grain Bin Floor Support Member

摘要

Floor support members in a grain bin floor system support perforated floor panels spanning above a plenum space at the bottom of a grain bin. Each floor support member includes a top rail including a horizontal top flange at a top end of the floor support member and a bottom rail including a horizontal bottom flange at a bottom end of the floor support. Each floor support member further includes a plurality of columns connected between the top rail and the bottom rail such that a top end of each column is abutted with the top flange of the top rail and such that a bottom end of each column is abutted with the bottom flange of the bottom rail. Clinching is used to fasten each column to the top and bottom rails.
