Silos are structures that are used to store cement and ash in ready mix concrete plants, coal in power plant, grains in flour mills. The elevated cylindrical storage silos are lifeline structures and strategically very important, since they have vital use in industries. Dynamic effects are different in character in terms of distribution patterns and their magnitudes when compared with the static effects. This paper reports on the results of parametric study, which examines the effects of varying aspect ratios on the dynamic response of elevated cylindrical steel silos under earthquake loading using SAP2000. Elevated silos generally consist of a roof, a cylindrical shell and conical hopper and they supported with steel frame. The main objective of the study is to determine the behaviors of seismic responses (Base shear variation, overturning moment, roof top displacement)
