STRUCTURAL DESIGN AND PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF CEMENT INDUSTRY CHIMNEY

Abstract

In the cement industry, safety, durability, and contemporary technological standards are prioritized in the construction and operation of chimney structures. The analysis examines design elements such as seismic forces, wind load, temperature variations, and material properties to ensure the structural integrity of the edifice under various operational conditions. The weight support, deformation, and stress distribution of the chimney structure are assessed by analytical and computational methods. The duration of exposure and environmental factors, including temperature fluctuations and corrosion, are examined. The findings underscore the necessity for the development of novel structural designs that are more dependable, durable, and less susceptible to failure. This will protect and enhance the infrastructure of the cement industry.
