The plan cross-sectional area of the silo A = 19.635 m2


The internal perimeter of the plan cross-section of the silo U = 15.708 m
Values of horizontal pressure Phf, wall frictional traction Pwf and vertical pressure Pvf at any depth after filling and during storage
should be determined as:
P_hf (z)=P_ho×Y_J (z)
P_wf (z)=μ×P_hf (z)
P_vf (z)=(P_hf (z))/K
