Stacks?

Stacks?

(OP)
We have to install a 16' high exhaust stack made of SS 316.  The temperature of the gases passing through the stack will be around 780 F.  Questions :

- At what height should we attach the cable?
- Is there a recommanded angle for it?
- What should we install to consider high temperature (springs, turnbuckle...)?

Anything else we should know?

Thanks
Mister D

RE: Stacks?

Can't it just be cantilevered at the base?

RE: Stacks?

Sounds like you need to engage a structural engineer.
