Abstract

In order to study the most economical material used for construction of bunkers to store a given volume of a material. Two bunkers have been designed by the same ratio of height to lateral dimensions for storing a given material like coal. In this investigation for capacity 300KN, the length to breadth ratio is taken same for reinforced concrete bunker and steel bunker are designed. Design of bunkers have been based on the recommendations of IS 4995-1974 part 1 & part 2 for “RCC Bunker” and IS 9178-1979 part 1 & part 2 for “Steel Bunker”. After designed comparison between RCC Bunker and Steel Bunker is done. Finally, the most economical bunker is found out, which material (RCC or Steel) for construction of bunker will lead to economical, to store a given amount of material have been found out. These findings will be useful for the designers for the designers of bunkers.
