A bstract Mathematical proof is presented that the wind pressure on a round stack is two‐thirds that of a square stack with the wind square to one side. A reconsideration is given of a stack section 1 where tension occurred, and a correction is presented. A convenient method and its application is also given for calculating the stability of a kiln stack upon the soil. The application of the “kern” theorem is discussed, using the kern for the worst condition, viz., with wind blowing diagonally against a square stack.
