1 GENERAL REMARKS

Antenna tower for 70m height is designed as Lattice type self-supporting tower. The total design wind
load includes the sum of the horizontal forces applied to the tower itself in the direction of the wind
and the design wind load on discrete appurtenances (antennas, ladder, cables...).

Total design effected antenna area for this type is 5.8 m2 and antenna feeders along the tower.

This tower shall be capable of withstanding a design wind speed of 180 km/h at above 10 m. from
ground level and it will be increased with height according to EIA standard.

Operational wind speed is 126 km/h and under operational wind load maximum displacement, twist
and sway at top of tower should be less than 0.5°.

5.2 Wind Load Calculation on Tower and Accessorizes

5.2.1 Wind Load on Tower Body (TIA-EIA-222-G)

For latticed structures, the total design wind load shall include the sum of the horizontal forces applied
to the structure in the direction of the wind and the design wind load on discrete appurtenances. The
horizontal force (F) applied to each section of the structure shall be calculated from the equations:

𝐹 = 𝑞𝑧 ∙ 𝐺ℎ ∙ (𝐸𝑃𝐴)𝑠

𝑞𝑧 = 𝑉𝑒𝑙𝑜𝑐𝑖𝑡𝑦 𝑝𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑠𝑢𝑟𝑒 = 0,613 ∙ 𝐾𝑧 ∙ 𝐾𝑧𝑡 ∙ 𝐾𝑑 ∙ 𝑉 2 ∙ 𝐼 (Pa)



𝐺ℎ = 0,85 + 0,15 ∙ (45.7 − 3,0) ( h in meters)
𝑧 2⁄

𝑔

𝐾𝑒 ∙𝐾𝑡 2
𝐾𝑧𝑡 = (1 + ) topographic factor..............Ke=Table 2-4; Kt=Table 2-5
𝐾ℎ

Kd = wind direction probability factor (Table 2-2)


I = importance factor (Table 2-3)
V = basic wind speed for the structure location (kph)
E = solidity ratio = (AF + AR) / AG
AF = Projected area of flat structural components in one face of the section (m2)
AR = Projected area of round structural components in of face of the section (m2)
AE = DFAF + DRARRR (m2)
RR = 0.51 e2 + 0.57
AG = Gross area of one tower face (m2)
DF = Wind direction factor (flat component) = 1.0 (for square cross section & normal)
DR = Wind direction factor (round component) = 1.0 (for square cross section & normal)

The above loads were calculated by software TOWER automatically.

6 STRUCTURAL CALCULATIONS

With EIA-G (ANSI/ TIA 222-G-1-2007) an effective yield stress Fcr is first calculated as follows:

For angle members, Fcr is calculated exactly as shown by Eqs. ASCE-1 to ASCE-5 below, but in all
cases w/t should not exceed 25.

For round members (round members are identified with w/t = 1 in the Angle Properties table as
described in Section 3.1.2.3 - their thickness is determined as {b - a} / 2, where a and b are also data
of the Angle Properties table)

 If member is solid; Fcr = Fy.

 If member is tubular;

o Fcr = Fy D/t < = WTLIM1 (EIA-G-1)

𝐸 𝐷
o 𝐹𝑐𝑟 = [0.0379 ∙ (𝐹 )⁄( 𝑡 )] ∙ 𝐹𝑦 WTLIM1 < D/t < WTLIM2 (EIA-G-2)
𝑦

WTLIM1 =0.114 E / Fy (EIA-G-3)


WTLIM2 = 0.448 E / Fy (EIA-G-4)

D/t = ratio of outer diameter of tubular member over its thickness (EIA-G-5)

Then effective lengths KL are determined through the combined use of Eqs. 3-4, 3-5, 3-6, and ASCE-
6to ASCE-11 from which the controlling KL/r is determined. The maximum allowed value of KL/r =
300is checked.
Then an effective normalized overall slenderness ratio is determined by:

𝐹𝑎 = 0.9 ∙ (0.658Λeff ) (EIA-G-7)

 If Λeff > 1.5

Capacities of member of result of hand calculations are the same with PLS-Tower results. Therefore, we do not need to assign to strength reduction factor
to the load file, Tower already uses a reduction factor(0.9) for capacity calculation.
