I am designing a horizontal belt storage cassette on radius portion (Horizontal Radius in plan - 300 mtrs) for tunnel muck removal conveyor.

Is it advisable to have cassette in radius portion. If it can be done then what precautions should we take?

conveyor details- 550 tph, total conveyor length 1.5km, cassette- 500m storage, cassette travel ~65m.
