Abstract

Like all other tall structures, determination of wind loads is important for industrial reinforced concrete chimneys. All countries use different wind load standards. These different wind load standards are compared with each other in some studies. For example, in one study by Zhou et al., major international codes and standards for tall buildings were compared.
