Does anyone have the equation for calculating the hoop forces in the foundation ringwall for a grain bin. Thanks in advance.

It can be calculated in a manner similar to tank ring walls. There is an old paper referenced by one of the members (SlideRuleEra??). I don't know the link, but someone else may.
