In this episode of The Career Confessions, Dawn talks with Dayne, a grain bin technician, about the often-overlooked science and skill behind building and maintaining massive grain storage structures.

The conversation dives deep into the engineering side of construction — exploring how metal sheets, material weight, and design choices all come together to ensure safety, durability, and precision. From calculating the weight of a top ring to understanding why a “thin” metal sheet can still pack serious heft, this discussion reveals how technical knowledge meets hands-on expertise in the trades.
