ASSIGNMENT (SILO)Q. A cement silo has an internal diameter of 10 m with the height of cylindrical portion being 30 m. The density of cement is 15.2 kN/m3. Coefficient of friction between concrete and material is 0.70. The angle of repose of the material is 17.50. Adopting M-20 grade concrete and Fe-415 HYSD bars, design the thickness and the reinforcement required at the bottom of the cylindrical portion of the silo using Jansens Theory.Data: Dia of silo= 10m; Depth of cylindrical portion= 30 m; Density of cement=15.2 kN/m3.Coefficient of friction between wall and material=m=0.70; Angle of repose of the material=f=17.50Ration of horizontal to vertical pressure intensity: n== = 0.54Characteristic strength:fck=20N/mm2, fy=415 N/mm2, Permissible tensile stress in conc= 2.8 N/mm2, modular ratio,m=13
