    Determing design wind speeds from raw data

    For short-term records of wind speed, check EPRI references on how to extrapolate to a 50 yr design speed. This method is often used for transmission tower design where recorded wind speed information is scant or has been recorded for only a short period of time. MPaul

    U-Bolted Steel Splints

    Greetings Not sure of what configuration you are considering. One of Timoshenkos references describes column buckling with a larger cental section in the pinned column. Not sure if this is helpful. More information from initial entry may be in order. MPaul SCL

    calculate transmission monopole

    Greetings: It is understood different designers and manufacturers use different criteria to limit deflections. IE tangent pole ~ 10-12% of height, deadend end structures 2-3% or there abouts. This includes deflections due to foundation displacements and foundation rotations. This probably is...
