Earthquake Response Analysis of Tall Reinforced Concrete Chimneys considering Eccentricity

Figure 12

Spatial distributions of maximum earthquake normal stresses at different cross sections for the 210 m high chimney under two types of seismic load applied for each of the four earthquake wave actions: (a) Landers wave (No. 1); (b) Loma Prieta wave (No. 2); (c) Borrego wave (No. 3); (d) Chichi wave (No. 4).
