DESIGN OF SILO.

Silo is supported on Ring Girder at waist or transition level at El. 27.4 m which further transfers the load on Silo Building
supporting beams through stub columns at 6 support locations.

Ring Girder is designed such that it not only transfers the vertical load but also enhances the stiffness of Silo at transition level and caters to the circumferential thrust at the same
through skirt girder. Ring Girder, therefore, is subjected to axial, bending, torsion and shear forces. Manual calculation of forces and checks have been carried out for design of Ring
Girder.

DESIGN OF SHELL

Design of Wall Plate & Hopper Plate has been carried out using Membrane Theory (as per EN 1993-1-6: 2007) due to the following

* Both the Cylindrical part & Hopper shall be adequately stiffened so as to transfer stresses in the shell into
support reactions without causing significant bending effects;
* the shell geometry varies smoothly in shape (without discontinuities);
* the loads have a smooth distribution (without locally concentrated or point loads).
