  • Abstract:
  • This paper deals with the self supporting flared steel chimney of 60m height above ground level. The steel chimney is made according to IS-6533 (1989) and analysed for wind load as per IS-875 (2015). Here steel chimney is design for all six wind zone having speed 33 m/s, 39 m/s, 44 m/s, 47 m/s, 50 m/s and 55 m/s. The study parameters like static force, static moment, maximum compressive stress and maximum tensile stress are compared for all six zone. For analysis a chimney of height 60m is divided into six part or section of 10m height. In maximum cases section 6 of wind zone VI are critical. The thickness and weight of chimney is almost equal in every case and also the maximum compressive force per unit length are compared in different wind speed which is maximum for zone VI.
