Selection of axial force parameters such as wind load on conical shells under external pressure
Thread Content
Does that person know how to calculate wind loads, dead loads, and other axial forces generated at the larger and smaller ends of a conical shell when performing calculations for it? How is it entered in SW6?
The only difference from the cylindrical shape is that the semi-cone angle x1/cosβ is taken into account, as shown in equations 34–37 of JB/T4710
The answer above isn’t very clear. The original poster is asking how to enter these two numbers and how to calculate them
