A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Although coal bunkers of large capacity form an important part of power stations and similar plants, the technical literature contains little information concerning their practical design.
An attempt is made in this paper to present a rational design procedure based upon several coal bunkers actually constructed, Formulas for coal pressures on vertical and inclined walls are reviewed, and values are tabulated; bunker walls are presented as flexible plates; unbalanced forces due to asymmetry are analyzed; and continuity for the stiffeners is introduced.
