PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus for supporting a silo with the hull of a ship, configured to prevent a fatigue crack even if the hull swings with ocean waves and repeatedly receives a load for deformation, while reducing manufacturing cost.SOLUTION: A lower part of a silo 11 is fixed to the bottom of a hold. An upper part of the silo 11 is supported by a supporting apparatus. The supporting apparatus includes first support parts 40 and second support parts 60. The first support parts 40 are fixed to an outer circumferential surface of the upper part of the silo 11, and spaced from each other on the whole periphery. The second support parts 60 are fixed to a deck formed in the hold. The first and second support parts 40, 60 can be brought into contact with each other and sliding contact with each other. The first support part 40 has an elastic member for absorbing impact to be generated when the first and second support parts are brought into contact with each other.
