Stability of high towers in form of reinforced concrete shell of revolution is analyzed using different methods based on membrane theory and methods considering flexural rigidity of shell; effects of dead load, wind stresses, and thermal gradient are studied; behavior of tower structures is analyzed, reference being made to Ferrybridge (England) accident in which three towers collapsed under wind gust effect; results of aerodynamic model tests are shown in diagrams and recommendations are given as to choice of design method as well as regarding optimum shell form, thickness, and calculation of reinforcement. ( n 1 Jan p 25-35, n 2 Feb p 100-112.)
