  • Abstract:
  • Chimneys are required to carry vertically and discharge, gaseous products of combustion, chemical waste gases, and exhaust air from and industry into the atmosphere at such a height and velocity that it doesn't harm the environment. With the rapid industrial development, large numbers of chimneys are constructed every year. Due to increased pollution over a couple of years, the height of RCC chimneys has been increased. As far as our knowledge goes none of a chimney have been constructed of modular type (configured as per need) in the world in any industry, unless the size of the chimney is too small. Domestic chimneys can be erected with external support. Therefore , The proper analysis of RCC Chimneys, are necessary so that it will create self-standing structures that will resist wind load, earthquake load Dead load and other forces acting on them. This project aims at the detailed analysis of RC and composite Chimneys subjected to static-dynamic wind load and seismic loading using ETABS software. Analysis is performed for two seismic zones and two different wind speed, Also height of chimney is varied and two chimney of height 60m and 100m is considered for study. Parameters like Maximum lateral displacement, maximum moments, and horizontal shear are compared.
