Dry Mixing Plant in Landsberg/Lech, Germany

A second mixing plant for ground building materials was built in 2015 on the site of Baumit GmbH in Landsberg/Lech.

The steel structure supports the silo grate with 36 silos (6 x 6) at a height of +26 m (+85 ft).

The structural analysis of the spatial model was performed in RSTAB by Dietz Würtele Ingenieure, a customer of Dlubal Software.

Structure

The substructure is 26 m (85 ft) high and has axis dimensions of 18 m × 12 m (59 ft × 39 ft). The columns are constructed on a floor slab made of reinforced concrete, which is founded upon large bored piles. The mixing unit and all the machinery are housed in the substructure.

The silo grating is located at +26 m (+85 ft). 36 silos (6 x 6) are placed on it. Each silo row is located on a cantilever, oriented to the north and south.

The construction is reinforced in all directions by wall bracings. The horizontal planes with a standard distance of about 4-5 m (13-16 ft) are reinforced horizontally with bracings or welded floor panels to reduce the effective lengths of the columns.

The dry mixing plant has a total altitude of about 50 m (164 ft).
