INRODUCTION
The bunkers and silos made of reinforced concrete have
almost replaced the steel storage structures. Concrete bins
possess less maintenance and other architectural qualities
greater than steel storage tanks. They are used to store
materials like grain, cereals, coal cement etc. They both serve
the purpose of bins.
Concept and difference between bunkers and silos are
explained in the following sections:
Bunkers are mainly employed for storage of underground
dwellings. These are mainly related to emergency conditions
during wars. The main two characteristics that make a bin to
act as a bunker is based on the

LITERATURE REVIEW
1. Adem Dogangun et al.2013, studied, reviewed and
discussed the main factors which cause damages to the
silos. They have presented the unusual modes of failure
due to different unconventional loading and some
escalating failures such as loss of the container,
contamination of material it contains, environmental
damage, replacement cost, possible injury and loss of life
that occurred in various regions of the world. They also
provided a review of specific silo failures due to
explosion and bursting, asymmetrical loads imposed
during filling or discharging, large & non uniform
pressure under soil, corrosion and deterioration of silos,
internal structural collapse and failures from several
earthquakes. They made a unique research about silo
failures and factors along with failures. They invented the
reasons and causes for failures and suggested some
remedial measures to prevent from failure. Some of the
solutions are, a) To prevent explosion and bursting,
monitor the internal pressure and gasses produced by
the stored bulk material. b) To prevent the silo from
dent, buckling and collapse, the potential asymmetric
flow patterns caused by rat holes, flow channels,
asymmetric loading patterns created during filling or
discharging are to be considered in the design. c) Apart
from that, while designing non uniform base pressure
resulting from lateral loads, earthquake loads, potential
asymmetrical material loads should be considered. d) For
empty and light silos, the wind load may be effective and
for heavier and tall silos, the horizontal seismic loads
may be more critical. e) Finally poor insufficient
reinforcement in supports or columns, corrosion of metal
silos and deterioration of concrete silos due to silage
acids aggravate the damage and lead to failure.

elevated concrete silos using finite - element solution.
They have considered the filling process of saturated
solids. In their analysis axis symmetric finite – element
model is used to signify both the solids and structure. An
elasto - plastic model is used for modelling of bulk solids
and linear elastic model is used for modelling of
structure. In their design to demonstrate both undrained
