OverviewSilos Spain bolted metal buildings are industrial steel structures manufactured in S450 steel with ProMag coating, designed for livestock, agricultural and industrial projects that require reliable, fast on-site assembly and modular expansion. The system is assembled from a 3-metre starter module and can be expanded in depth by adding 3-metre modules without on-site welding or demolition.
Main benefits- Bolted S450 steel construction with ProMag corrosion protection
- Assembled with metric grade 8.8 bolts; no on-site welding required
- Fast, tool-friendly assembly; in many configurations no complex foundations required
- Modular expansion: add 3-metre modules in depth without altering the existing structure
- Can be dismantled, relocated or expanded later
- Five standard widths cover typical projects; custom engineering available for special dimensions
Available models (standard widths — module = 3 m)- M-14 | Width: 14 m | Height: 2.50 m (min.) — 4.00 m (max) | Area per module: 42 m² | Depth per module: 3 m
- M-12 | Width: 12 m | Height: 2.50 m | Area per module: 36 m² | Depth per module: 3 m
- M-10 | Width: 10 m | Height: 2.50 m | Area per module: 30 m² | Depth per module: 3 m
- M-8 | Width: 8 m | Height: 2.50 m | Area per module: 24 m² | Depth per module: 3 m
- M-6 | Width: 6 m | Height: 2.50 m | Area per module: 18 m² | Depth per module: 3 m
How the modular system worksBegin with a starter module (self-supporting structure with four supports) and expand the building by adding 3-metre extension modules as needed. Each extension shares supports with the previous section; typically only two additional supports are required per added module. This enables phased growth with minimal site work.
Common uses- Cattle housing
- Sheep and goat shelter
- Agricultural machinery shelter
- Feed and forage storage
- General agricultural storage
- Industrial and logistics warehouses
- Workshops and service buildings
- Wineries and produce stores
FAQ highlights- Can the building be expanded without dismantling the existing structure? — Yes. The modular system adds 3-metre modules in depth without dismantling existing sections.
- What widths and depths are available? — Five standard widths: 6, 8, 10, 12 and 14 metres. Depth is configured in 3-metre modules; custom sizes available by engineering design.
- How long does assembly take? — Assembly time depends on building size and site conditions; the bolted, prefabricated system is designed for fast on-site assembly and avoids on-site welding.
- What cladding options are compatible? — Metal sandwich panels, galvanised sheet, EPS, polycarbonate and translucent fibreglass; combinations (e.g., concrete plinth + panel) are possible.
