Pi = Design pressure = 1.2 N/mm2
Di = inner diameter of the column = 1500 mm
S = the design stress of the material of construction
E = the weld joint efficiency = 1.0
The weld joint is double welded butt or equivalent joint and 100 percent degree of
radiography.

* The length of cylindrical column at the base of column is 37m. it is likely that the column will
buckle, thus we let the thickness be 10mm.
Note:
A much thicker wall at the base of column is to withstand the wind load and dead weight of column.
As the first trial, we divide the column into 5 sections with thickness increasing by 2mm per section.

Upwind:
z = L + w + b
z (upwind) = 25 + (- 2.604) + 62.09 = 84.5 N/mm2

12. Conclusion
The stress differences for upwind and downwind condition are less than S= 103.42 kN/mm 2. Therefore
the design thickness, t bottom = 18 mm is satisfactory.
