This study proposes a modification for the current design approach for rectangular silos that accounts for silos’ wall flexibility. First, the authors investigated the effect of wall stiffness, symbolized by the wall widthto-thickness ratio (a/t), on the wall-filling pressure using a recently validated 3D finite element model (F.E.M.).
