Chimneys are generally designed for critical (dynamic) loads produced by loads due to self- weight, wind and earthquake. Because in the change in dimension of chimney, structural analysis such as response to earthquake and wind oscillation have become more critical. Chimney (Stacks) being tall and flexible structure so it is expected that wind loads will be more critical than earthquake loads. In this present study analysis of RCC chimney done for Along wind loading. The reinforced concrete chimney with 100m, 200m and 300m height having a basic wind speed 33m/s & 55m/s with different height to base diameter ratio (slenderness ratio) and top to base diameter ratio (aspect ratio) is considered for analysis. Wind analysis is carried out as per procedure of IS: 4998 – 2015 to calculate the Along wind load and base moment. It is also carried out using MS EXCEL.
