Adding 3/4 pluwood on the outside. Then cabling with two 3/4 cables running lengthwise,about 5 feet from the floor.Plus same size cables running every 6 foot on the sides. Used special home made steel WASHERS as the cable went outside the 2 by 8 , original boards and the 3/4 plywood. Filled bins to about 12 feet high. Used this system for about 20 years , with no major problems. It was a lot of work when unloading the bins when it would stop rolling out the doors. Was dried to 15% moisture when put in,came out 14.1 to 3. Figured the wood took a point.
