A bolt on the base angle is standard on 8 gauge unstiffened base rings sheets and all Farm-Com base

2. To the lower edge of the final bottom ring, attach the base angle ring. Before lowering the bin, apply
mastic sealer to the entire underneath side of the base angle. (See Figure 6AC.)

However, provisions should be made to seal the base of the bin to prevent moisture from coming
into the bin.
