摘要：The article discusses issues related with storage of granular materials in silos made of corrugated sheets and reinforced with vertical ribs.Advantages and disadvantages of these structures are named,and typical technological solutions used by largest silo producers are presented.Moreover,basic assumptions of Eurocode 3 are discussed in the context of determining the buckling load capacity of a ribbed jacket.Alternative methods are indicated to determine the silo stability using analytical and FEM based methods.General conclusions are formulated with respect to designing of silos made of corrugated sheets.
