List of US Lattice Tower Manufacturer for Overhead Transmission Line
(OP)
I am Industrial Engineer and I would like to know where can i find a list or directory of the main manufacturer of transmission Tower in USA. It is very difficult to find Tower Manufacturer in google. I have a list from India, Turkey, China, but i need to know in USA and Canadá. Does anybody know tower design software like PLS-TOWER, MSTOWER or STAAD PRO??? Thanks for all

In Canada we use GuyMast.

There are several tubular pole manufacturers like T&B, Valmont, FWT, Sabre, etc that do transmission poles.
PLS-Tower is probably the leader in tower software and I maintain about 5,000 tower and pole models we use in PLS-CADD.

SAE Towers has an office in Houston but fabs in Brazil and Mexico http://www.saetowers.com/
You might contact TVA, WAPA, BPA, and the Bureau of Reclamation which are federal agencies that put up lots of lattice T-Lines to see where they buy towers. The PLS-CADD web site might be a source of contacts.
I'm not sure if Staad has a transmission tower module, but GTStrudl does have the code for checking member capacities. I have not heard of MSTower.
As I posted above, PLS-Tower has probably about 90% of the market in the USA with their PLS-CADD line design software.
