Three Apron Feeder Design in a Gravity Stockpile Reclaim

[Totobolz]

Hi Newbie in mining industry,

I would like to ask if there are rules or guidelines(standard) in designing three apron feeders in gravity stockpile reclaim?
Also guidelines in determining/calculating distances between the three apron feeders.

Thanks in advance. Highly appreciated any inputs from all mining experts.

Whatever size of steel beams you think you will need,, double those dimensions at a minimum!!!!!!!!!1 Moving rock is incredibly abrasive and the impact loading is severe
