Abstrait:

Previously, it was found that the analytical deflections computed for towers using computer software are less than those from test results. The present study is aimed at deriving a relationship between the ratio of the test to theoretical deflection, and a nondimensional parameter to serve as an index for monitoring the structural displacements during testing. Currently, structural dynamic evaluation plays little or no role in the design of towers, partly due to the difficulties involved in the analysis and the relatively high cost of field testing. Using the fundamental frequency of a tower, the peak response of the tower to gusty wind and the impact force caused by conductor breakage can be evaluated. Both theoretical and experimental studies have been carried out to evaluate the natural frequencies of the towers tested at TTRS, SERC, Chennai, India. Based on these data, an equation was derived in this paper using the tower geometry and test/theoretical deflection ratios, which allows us to predict the natural frequency of the tower in a way closer to its actual value.
