Design Calculation Report-Steel Chimney

The document provides a structural design calculation for a steel chimney. It includes sections on materials, design loads from dead load, wind, earthquake and load combinations. Design checks are performed for allowable stresses, displacements, base plate and anchor bolts. Finite element analysis software is used to analyze stresses and check the structural adequacy of the chimney according to relevant codes and specifications. Maximum displacements are found to be less than allowable limits.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
The Structure design of the slender structure like chimney is governed mainly the lateral
deflections from various environmental loads. The wind and seismic effects need to be
evaluated for strength as well as serviceability.
In view of above, Finite Element Analysis approach has been considered as prudent for
design of Chimney. The stresses have been simulated and analyzed in STAAD by using
plate elements.

Following section describes design, methodologies and results.

3.1 General
SI units shall be used in all design calculations, except in special circumstances such as
when using nomography or similar. The basic units for quantities of length, mass, time
and force are:

Measurement Unit
Length Meter (m)
Mass Kilogram (kg) or Tonne Metric (MT)
Velocity Metre / Second (m/sec)
Acceleration Metre / Second2 (m/sec2)
Time Second (s)
Force Kilo newton (kN)
Moment Kilo newton-meter (kN-m)
Stress Mega Pascal (MPa) or Newton per millimetre square (N/mm 2)

3.2 Computer Software

The stack design check is carried out to relevant codes, project specifications as listed
in below sections respectively. Structural analysis are carried out using a “STAAD”
program of Bentley Systems.

5.0 DESIGN LOADS
Loads acting on the structure may be classified into the following categories.

5.1 Dead Load


The weight of the structural members is generated directly by software.

5.2 Live Loads


0.1 KN/M2

5.3 Wind Load


The site location has 55 m/s of Basic wind speed which is based on peak gust
velocity averaged over a short time interval of about 3 sec and corresponds to
mean heights above ground level in an open terrain.
Also, as the chimneys are significant in height and having considerable wind
projected area, it is a wind sensitive structure.
The Detailed wind analysis for the chimney is checked with two different
approaches:
1. STATIC WIND RESPONSE
2. DYNAMIC WIND RESPONSE
The governing design pressure is used for load calculation and the chimney is
designed to withstand the forces of wind pressure in different lateral directions.
5.4 Earthquake Loads

The seismic analysis of the structure is done using Response spectral analysis
methodology. A Linear (structural Linearity) Response Spectrum analysis is performed
using the model Superposition method (CQC method) along all the three directions and
results is combined. Sufficiently 100 modes are used for response spectrum analysis.

6 DESIGN CHECKS

6.1 Allowable Stresses


Calculated Design Stress is less than 125 N/mm2 (0.5fy).
Hence, safe for operating.
6.2 Displacement Check

Deflections is maintained within acceptable limits consistent with the


required function. Deflections of primary and secondary structure are
limited to 1:200 of the free span where as for cantilever beams limited to
1:120.

Maximum displacement = 26.431 mm


Allowable displacement = 14540/200 = 72.7 mm
Maximum displacement is less than allowable displacement.
Hence, safe in deflection
