What Standards are applicable to Sugar Silo design in Australia?
What Standards are applicable to Sugar Silo design in Australia?
(OP)
I am involved with an Australian client who has engaged a company that is designing, fabricating and constructing a stainless steel 90t granular sugar silo for them.
Can someone advised what Australian standards are applicable to such a stainless steel sugar silo design?
I am aware of AS/NZS 4745:2004 "Code of practice for handling combustible dusts", however this does not have much at all on design standards.
Regards,
Obie
