Thorcon Shotcrete and Shoring has also implemented shotcrete and gunite into the agricultural world. Silage pits take a beating year after year and we have found new ways to improve the efficiency and longevity of silage pits so they can perform for over 75 years. Thorcon will repair any of the silage pits' fall outs with galvanized mesh and fiber shotcrete. We wet-cut the shotcrete after it has been applied to allow for a smooth finish. This new idea supports the silage pit and allows the feed to drop during feed out and not get hung up on the walls, which can contaminate the feed with wet soils. We can also incorporate a straight curb at the bottom of the pit walls to allow the loader hand to feel the bottom of the pit without undermining the pit walls.
Think of Thorcon Shotcrete and Shoring to accommodate your next silage pit repair or construction needs. We proudly serve Colorado and the surrounding region with the highest quality and safety standards in the shotcrete and shoring industry.
