http://www.fao.org/3/a-au178e.pdfSimple information on how to construct a metal silo. This document is largely based on previous materials produced by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC). The structure of some sections has been used almost directly. Earlier efforts by those working within the FAO such as A. Arancibia and Y. Calvamontes contributed aspects such as the material-use plans for the five regularly sized silos and the basis for some of the illustrations.
