In design, all modern and specific computation methods have to be applied in order to find out the linear,nonlinear, static and dynamic behaviours of these very large reinforced concrete shell structures.

Moreover, special demands on cooling towers have very often initiated progressive research work on buckling behaviour,wind action, earthquake response and nonlinear material effects with respect to safety, durability and concepts for the extension of their life cycle.
