Dynamic Response Of Lattice Towers And Guyed Masts

Download or read book Dynamic Response of Lattice Towers and Guyed Masts written by Murty K.S. Madugula and published by ASCE Publications. This book was released on 2001-01-01 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prepared by the Task Committee on the Dynamic Response of Lattice Towers of the Technical Committee on Special Structures and the Technical Administrative Committee on Metals of the Structural Engineering Institute of ASCE. This report is a compilation and clarification of current methodologies for the dynamic response of communication towers in a single source. The information regarding the dynamic response of lattice towers is currently scattered throughout the literature, making it difficult for the practicing engineer to obtain the information necessary for design purposes. Both self-supporting lattice towers and guyed lattice masts (guyed lattice towers) are included. Topics include: Ødynamics of cables and towers, Ødynamic analysis, Øwind loads and response, Øseismic input and response, and Øvibration control.
