Hello,
For ASCE 7-05, chapter 15 (SEISMIC DESIGN REQUIREMENTS FOR NON BLDG STRUCTURES), do seismic load combinations specified in Section 12.4 (for BLDG Structures) still apply, since there are no LCs specified in chapter 15?
Thank you much,
Layla.
A VERY GOOD REFERENCE IS: PRESSURE VESSEL DESIGN MANUAL BY MOSS. It has everything about the design of stacks in particular. Stiffeners, Rings, gusset design... etc
good luck.

Dear Engineers,
For those of you who are familiar with Dennis Moss' Pressure Vessel Design Manual, for calculation procedure 3-9, exactly in page 161 where he shows the method to calcualte the Natural Period of Vibration T = (H/100)^2*SQRT(sigma (w*Delta Alpha + W*Beta/H)/sigma...
Hi guys,
I am new to stacks. My boss gave me a serie of 3 stacks, that we want to brace to reduce vibrations. Could you please shed some light on that subject. Provide a method if possible or recommend any references. Your answer is appreciated.

Guys,
thank you so much for the valuable info each of you has provided.
