INLAND GRAIN TERMINAL

Carseland, Alberta
overview

Project Overview

The Inland Grain Terminal project in Carseland, Alberta, was executed in two phases to enhance grain storage and handling capacity. The facility was designed to provide efficient wheat storage, receiving, and shipping operations to support large-scale grain distribution.

goals

Project Goals

  • Phase One: Construct a main concrete grain storage house with a capacity of 10,000 metric tonnes.
  • Install receiving systems capable of handling dual rail and single truck deliveries at a rate of 250 metric tonnes per hour.
  • Implement a wholesale shipping system including transit wholesale distribution via an overhead tower with a capacity of 80 metric tonnes per hour and shipping rates of 350 metric tonnes per hour.
  • Phase Two: Add steel bins consisting of two 60-foot diameter, 85-foot high bins to increase storage capacity.
