The material or the metal used for the Tower manufacturing are Mild Steel (M.S.) Plates.LPG is commonly used as a fuel in the heating furnace for bending operation. As the cost of LPG affects the production, Furnace Oil as an alternative fuel if considered for the heating furnace operation can be used for bending of plates used in Tower manufacturing. Here, as a consideration of fuel will be on the basis o availability, cost, flash point , calorific value etc.
