Abstract
Abstract This paper sets forth what is believed to be a new concept of the dynamic response of tall stacks to wind action, in that the wind-induced vibrations of a stack are classified as “self-excited” rather than “forced.” Information presented is pertinent to the design of structurally sound steel stacks, and includes experimentally determined structural damping characteristics of welded, gunite-lined and riveted, brick-lined steel stacks. Also presented is a realistic value of the often disputed “lateral force coefficient CL,” as determined from observations on actual stacks.
