Design of Silos

Design of Prestressed Concrete Silo

--> It includes design of prestressed concrete silo as per IRC 112:2020.       --> It also includes design of RCC silo as per IS:4995 (Part I & II) and ACI : 313-97 but only calculation is mentioned in this portfolio because prestressed silo is better for the given project data as per calculations, which is in detail discussed.                                                                                         -->Tendon size, tendon spacing and detailing of tendon is discussed.
