Abstract

This paper deals with the study of hyperbolic cooling towers having a total height of 175 m supported on ‘I’, ‘V’ and ‘H’ Geometrical Column systems. The modelling of the column was carried out in STAAD-Pro software for wind load, seismic load, self-weight, dynamic loading and harmonic loading. The tower was divided into 4-noded shell elements. Finite element analysis was used for carrying out the analysis of the cooling towers. The study of the different support systems for various aspects like reinforcement, linear elastic response, and elasto-plastic analysis was carried out to make a comparative conclusion for the optimum design of the cooling towers.
