The Chimney with 6 Guy Cables as compared to Chimney
without Guy Cables reduces the deflection at the Top
considerably about by 78 %. Though Chimney with 3 guy
cables shows more deflection than the chimney with 6 guy
cables, the stresses in the walls of chimney are found very
less compared to the chimney with 6 guy cables as the more
number of guy cables are producing more wind forces on the
structure of chimney and hence more stresses. Also it is found
that Case 4 & Case 5 are more vulnerable to lateral
deflection due to wind load and exceeding the permissible
limits prescribed by IS 6533 (Part-2): 1989. Due to increase
flexibility in Case 4 & Case 5 of Chimney, the cross sectional
shape of the chimney in Case -4 & Case 5 is deforming largely
at the top.
