Agricultural Storage & Processing

As farm sizes grow, today's Agricultural facilities are becoming more complex entities requiring engineering design. As technology improves, the importance of facility and process integration will grow. Infrastructure for growth, storage, handling, and processing of agricultural commodities is comprised of many complex systems including: complex equipment for loading and unloading from truck, rail, and ship; storage structures of all types and sizes; sophisticated handling and processing equipment; and special facilities for housing/protection of this equipment. These systems must be designed, built and operated by engineers who are familiar with the unique codes, regulations and design specifications applicable to agricultural facilities.

At Facility Engineering Services, we understand the needs of the agricultural community. We are active members of the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers (ASABE) and have been involved in the design of many types of agricultural facilities including grain bins and their foundations, fertilizer facilities, animal production facilities and many other types of commercial agriculture.

Not every engineer has experience with agricultural facility design. Facility Engineering Services has extensive experience with the design of agricultural production and storage facilities. As active members of ASABE, our engineers are involved in the standards development for these types of structures.
