How to Design a Guyed Tower

What about seismic forces?

PWSlck,

Actually where the tower is going to be erected is not known to have incidence of seismic activities but you can include it for future sake. It is a telecom. tower.

thanks

Dear Guest what you expect is a free design of a quite complex system. I think that it would be better to hire the services of some body. as one of us recommended some time ago "do not for an important job (and it seames to be one) ever think to use counsels from a forum even as CR4".

You could be better served by a consulting person who will also take a responsibility for what is said or given to you.

If you make this saving it could cost at the end much more.

nich name,

There will by all means be a consultant on the tower but it is also as important for us to be able to check through our own calculations and be satisfied with what is offered us. It is not enough to get somebody taking responsibility but, more importantly, to be convinced of a proposal.

There is a lot of useful information on this site. Although they are advertising a computer program, they include some useful hand verifications.
