Steel silos are prone to out-of-plane buckling failure at the intersection of silo walls,silo skirts and funnels.A ring beam is usually set at the intersection to resist damage.The stability of the ring plate and ring beam at the intersection plays a crucial role in the safe operation of the steel silo.Ring beams are usually divided into two types:T-shaped ring beams and ring plate ring beams.Ring plate and ring beam width and ring plate and ring beam thickness are the two main parameters of ring plate and ring beam.In order to further study their influence on the stable bearing capacity of ring plate and ring beam,taking a steel silo ring plate and ring beam as an example,and based on the calculation methods of China codes and European codes respectively,the relationship between ring plate and ring beam width and ring plate and ring beam thickness and ring plate and ring beam stability bearing capacity is deeply studied,the differences between the calculated values of China codes and European codes are compared and analyzed,and reasonable suggestions are put forward to provide reference for similar projects.
