Thanks for the insight all,
The legs are failing in compression. I have spoken to Peter briefly about this tower and I am wondering if it could possibly be due to steel grade..? I used A36 as default. I cant seem to find anything on that contradicts that.
I am working on running a SA on a existing 120' SST with 60° angle legs. The issue I am having is the tower is failing even prior to adding any loads. Was wondering if there is anything special that you need to take into consideration when working with this type of tower. (using TNXTower)
I am interested in trying to find a draft copy of the TIA-222- Rev H. I have a client that would like us to incorporate the new changes into our designs going forward.
I know that it has not been adopted yet, and is supposed to be adopted later this year, but was looking to see if there is...
I am working on designing modifications to an existing self-support tower that has truss legs.
I am trying to figure out how to analyze the modified truss leg in TNX.
I am planning on using a part manufactured by SitePro1 - tie-rod bracket with 2" std. pipe.
Any help would be greatly...
