Examples of designing steel shell structures according to Eurocodes

Abstract

The paper presents an analysis of the guidelines of the European standards on procedures for the calculation of shell structures. The analysis is illustrated with examples concerning three types of structures of the type i.e.: a chimney, a silo and a tank.
