MikeDB,
Yes, I devide tension force by perimeter of cleat angle and by maximum allowable Vc (ACI, punching shear clause), so i have the depth of concrete.
About bearing on concrete, is it 5((f'c)^0.5) (ACI, plain concrete clause)?
transmissiontowers,
Thank you for the image, i can imagine it...
Thank's MikeDb.
I look the same for distribution of tension force along the cleat, so i'am afraid of that is something that i've forgot to consider. I hope that i won't need that thick concrete above the top cleat, i used 130x130x10mm for stub angle and 110x110x10mm for the angle cleat, with...
Dear,
Thank's tranmissiontower and MikeDb.
I've been designing foundation for 275kV tranmission tower.
Regarding to soil report, i use pile foundation. For angle shear connector / "cleat angle", it needs 8 level of "cleats". 4 of them on pilecap and the others on column or chimney. Are there...
Dear all,
Thanks for all replies, really sorry, i have not get on line for e few weeks.
Cleat that i have meaned is exactly like transmissiontowers defined, but i do the joint between stub angle and cleat angle by bolt.
May i have further info, references or others?
Thank you
Thanks for the info.
I live in Indonesia. I have just moved to the contractor which is provide the design and construction of transmission line. It is joint venture between UK company, which is pretty good in transmission, and local company. I was in structural consultant for about 7 years.
Hi All...
I am currently a structural engineer. I have interest in transmission design. How could i find some resources such as book, code or others? I need information in basic stage such as part of tower transmission, conductor, sag and others.
Thank you in the advance.
