Number of Bushels in a Cylinder Shaped Bin

Estimate the number of bushels in a round grain bin. Calculation includes the volume of the bin in cubic feet and litres. The United States uses the Winchester bushel (1.244456 ft²), and in Canada, they use the Avery bushel ( 1.284349 ft²).

Volume Formula

V = Π (D/2)²H;
where V is the volume of the bin
Π = 3.14159
D = the diameter of the bin
H = the height of the bin
