Author’s own experimental and theoretical researches on buckling of shells of revolution are summarized with special emphasis on the conceptual approach behind them. Effect of the biaxial stress states is depicted in form of interaction diagrams. Design formulas based on these concepts and computations carried out for reinforced concrete hyperboloidal cooling tower shells allow the erection of very large and thin cooling towers which meanwhile have reached the 200m limit in height.

Concrete shells - towards efficient structures: construction of an ellipsoidal concrete shell in Switzerland
Concrete shells have been widely used in the past as economical and suitable solutions for a number of structures such as roofs, silos, cooling towers or offshore platforms. Taking advantage of their… Expand
