Sample Gauge Sheet
A gauge sheet should be supplied with every bin and contains important information specific to your bin.
The gauge sheet contains the specific details that are unique to your bin. You must reference this sheet to
know the correct order to install the sidewall sheets and stiffeners. The gauge of the sidewall and stiffeners
are marked with colors for identification.
It is important to use the correct hardware for each type of connection. The gauge sheet will identify what
hardware should be used in a vertical seam, horizontal seam, and an overlapping seam for each gauge.
The gauge sheet will also identify the sidewall ring where the wind ring must be installed. This is indicated
by the word ”Standard” under the wind ring column and in the row of the ring it must be installed. If a side-
draw system is used, the word ”Additional” will be located in the row of the ring it must be installed.
Doors are to be installed in the ring or rings denoted with (D).
