ABSTRACT:
An improved grain bin floor support system which utilizes a plurality of floor supports for supporting interlocking floor panels. The floor support is constructed of an upper rail for supporting floor panels, vertical members extending from the upper rail to the foundation of the bin, and a horizontal member which is attached to the vertical members and disposed between the upper rail and the base of the bin. The upper rail has a plurality of recesses and crowns between the recesses. The floor panels have a generally planar top portion and depending flanges which engage in nesting relation with the adjacent flange of the adjacent panel. The depth and spacing of the recesses along the upper rail are such that the floor panels are supported by engagement of the recesses of the upper rail against the depending flanges.
