Abstract
This paper explores the design and structural performance of self-supported steel chimneys under two different design codes: the European code (EN 1993-3-2) and the Indian code (IS:6533-1989). These towering structures are crucial for releasing harmful gases at high altitudes to minimize environmental impact. The study focuses on a 90-meter steel chimney and conducts seismic and wind analyses using the SAP2000 software, considering seismic zone III conditions and a basic wind speed of 47 meters per second. Shear force and Maximum Base Moment are calculated to assess structural integrity. By comparing the outcomes of designs under these two codes, the research aims to provide insights into the efficiency and safety of self-supported steel chimneys, contributing to advancements in structural engineering and environmental protection.
