Stack Drawings
This chapter includes schematic drawings of a chimney stack....
Evaluation of Corroded Steel Chimneys
The paper is focused on the analysis of corroded steel chimneys. Cylindrical steel plates are exposed to thermal and chemical effects. The study is based on the results of extensive measurements...
Blast Demolition of Reinforced Concrete Industrial Chimneys
On some of recently demolished chimneys, transient measurements were taken, in the vicinity of the tilting hinge, during the process of falling down. Thus, corresponding dynamic computational...
Fission Product Distribution in Nuclear Test Cavities/Chimneys
When a nuclear device is exploded, residual radioactive material is distributed throughout the resulting underground cavity and rubble chimney. Refractory materials are more concentrated...
Structural Renovation of Tall Chimneys
This paper describes several tall chimney projects where major renovations were performed to the linings which required complete structural analysis of the existing chimney and foundation....
Time Dependent Stochastic Characteristics of the Lateral Random Vibration of Tall Structures with Circular Cross-Section
From full scale measurement of the pressure field at three levels of a concrete chimney with 230 m height the lift coefficient is deduced and the lateral oscillation is investigated. The...
On the Failure Probabilities of R/C Chimneys
A procedure to estimate failure probabilities of structural systems such as reinforced concrete (R/C) chimneys under severe wind loading which allows for considering realistic correlation...
On the CICIND Code
The CICIND Model Code for Concrete Chimneys was created by CICIND, an international technical association which has as one of its main aims the creation of harmonized internationally accepted...
Aerodynamic Modeling of Chimneys
The wake induced acrosswind behavior of circular cross-section structures, such as industrial chimney, has been studied for many years using wind tunnel models. Due to the relaxation of...
Wind Forces Measured on a Tall R.C. Chimney
This paper describes some aspects of an analysis performed on measurements of a variety of parameters relating to the wind, wind forces on and the response of a tall chimney. The results...
