Column statics with the KSTA module
For a 20 m high column, the restraining moment must be determined. The column is erected outdoors, the wind load is determined according to DIN 1055 Part 4. Since the column is relatively slender with an outer diameter of 750 mm, it is guided to 12 m when passing through the platform. The guide bearings are designed with 5 mm clearance.
Additional data:
Islolation thickness = 100 mm
Calculation pressure in column bottom 6.3 bar
What are the clamping moment, the moment at the end of a 1.2 m high standing frame and the stresses at the frame connection?




After the complete input of the column head data the calculation starts (blue window)
The results are transferred to the mask.
