BROCK’S EVEREST™ GRAIN BIN LINE IS DIFFERENT & BETTER … BY DESIGN
Reach New Heights with Brock’s EVEREST™ E-Series Grain Bins
Take your grain storage to the next level with Brock’s EVEREST™ E-Series line of grain bins. Designed to accommodate the increasing demands of larger storage capacities, these bins feature eave heights up to 23 feet (7 m) on select models and hold up to an impressive 1.34 million bushels. Perfectly suited for meeting the challenges of today’s trend-line grain yield increases, the EVEREST™ E-Series sets a new standard for commercial grain storage.
Beyond their towering heights and expanded capacities, the E-Series bins boast advanced engineering and innovative design upgrades. These include enhancements to roof structures, body sheets, bin stiffeners, anchoring systems, and accessories—all built to meet or exceed the latest grain industry standards. A newly designed peak support connection further strengthens the structure for long-term durability.
Unmatched Roof Peak Load Capacity – Up to 130,000 Pounds!
The EVEREST™ E-Series grain bins deliver industry-leading roof peak loading strength, handling up to 130,000 pounds (59,000 kg) of uniformly distributed pure vertical load. This impressive capacity is based on a ground snow load of 30 pounds per square foot (146 kg per square meter), ensuring reliable performance regardless of the bin diameter or model.
Brock’s EVEREST™ Bins: Strength Beyond the Roof
Brock’s EVEREST™ bins go beyond offering exceptional roof peak load capacities—they deliver unmatched structural integrity through the seamless combination of roof, sidewall, and anchoring design strengths.
EVEREST™ Roof Designs Meet Every Challenge:
- Custom Roof Peak Loads: Engineered to handle various applications with ease.
- Snow Load Durability: Designed to withstand ground snow loads of 30, 40, 50, or 60 pounds per square foot (146, 195, 244, or 293 kg/m²). Roof load analysis includes both balanced and unbalanced snow conditions for comprehensive reliability.
- Temperature Cable Loads: Built to support up to 2,000 pounds (907 kg) per temperature control cable for taller bins, with the capacity to accommodate multiple cables. Contact Brock for specific load details.
- Structural Dead Load: Designed to account for the bin’s own roof structure and panel weight, which varies by diameter and model.
- Safety Anchor Points: Strategically located on the compression ring for added security.
- Rafter Safety System: Equipped to support an in-bin safety perimeter system near the eave, accessible through the eave-level manhole access door for enhanced safety.
With Brock’s EVEREST™ bins, you get more than storage—you get a robust, reliable solution built to handle the most demanding conditions with safety and performance in mind.

The EVEREST Bin’s sidewalls defend stored grain from weather while also providing critical strength components vital to the bin’s structure:
- Efficient vertical seam patterns provide improved strength for body sheet connections in both narrow- and wide-corrugation bin models.
- Thicker body sheets (up to 5 gauge) resulting in fewer laminated sidewall panels and more efficient use of optimal sidewall thicknesses at all levels of the bin.
- Standardized 3/8-inch (9.525-mm) diameter bolts on narrow-corrugation sidewall connections provide more efficient connections and fewer hardware sizes in assembly.
- JS-1000™ bolt coating contributes improved bolt life expectancy and corrosion protection.
- Manhole Surround
- Mid-Roof Stairs Platforms
- Safety Gates on Roof Platforms
- Ladder Fall Protection
- Center Compression Ring and Interior Perimeter Anchor Points for In-Bin Safety
