Abstract Due to increase in demand, huge number of telecommunication towers has been built in India during last few decades with the compulsion to provide efficient communication. Consequently, telecommunication sector in the country has expanded rapidly. Expanding base possesses challenges to mobile operators in terms of augmenting and upgrading infrastructure to uphold to excellence of services. A rapidly rising subscriber and a more rigorous band allocating organization may create a higher requirement of tower sites for operators to accommodate more subscribers. Hence it became an expensive and tedious task to spot ample land for construction of towers. This led to the extensive use of the rooftop of multi-storeyed buildings for installing communication towers. Formerly the majority of the buildings were not cautious to carry a roof top tower, however owing to the altered needs; buildings were rehabilitated to carry roof top towers. In this report analysis of 4 legged angular self-supporting telecommunication towers is performed. Assessment is done based on modal analysis, by comparing the results of roof top tower and ground based tower. In support of this intention, two 4 legged self-supporting telecommunication towers of 24m and 21m are modeled on roof top of a building and on the ground, considering the effects of wind loads as per Indian condition. Effects of wind on towers are employed from the IS 875 (Part 3)-1987 by using STAAD pro finite element software. The tower and building is analysed by placing towers at centre of roof. Axial forces experienced by the structures too have been obtained Keywords: telecommunication tower, roof top, ground based, dynamic analysis

Structural Behaviors of Reinforced Concrete Dome with Shell System under Vari...ijtsrd
There are many different systems constructing dome structure. Among them, the shell system is the most popular in reinforcement concrete structure in these days. Therefore, it is necessary to know the structural behaviours of it. The objectives of this journal is to study the structural behaviours of the reinforced concrete dome structure with shell system under gravity loading and lateral loading in cyclone wind categories and various seismic zones. Seismic loads are considered from zone 1 to zone 4 based on UBC 1997 .Wind loads are considered from I to V category as cyclone categories. Structural elements of RC dome structure are designed according to Building Code of American Concrete Institute ACI 318 99 . With these member forces obtained from the SAP 2000 analysis, the design for all structural members will be performed according to ACI 318 99. The members of dome structure are designed as an intermediate moment resisting frame. The design of the shell beams is verified by using hand calculations with the output forces under the gravity loading and lateral loading obtained from the SAP2000 analysis. Equivalent static analysis procedure is used in this study. Based on the comparison of analysis results, it can be observed where the maximum deflection occurs along the meridian direction under seismic and wind loading conditions. Then, the axial force of dome structure is significant than any other forces in shell system. From the study of analysis results of both systems, it has been noticed that the bottom ring in shell system is essential to control the forces from the shell area.

2. In the present era the technology in communications has developed to a very
large extent. The communication industries have seen a tremendous increase in last few
years which have resulted in installation of large number of towers to increase the
coverage area and network consistency. In wireless communication network these towers
play a significant role hence failure of such structure in a disaster is a major concern.
Therefore utmost importance should be given in considering all possible extreme
conditions for designing these towers. In most of the studies, the researches have
considered the effect of wind only on the four legged self-supporting towers. In this
dissertation, a four legged lattice tower is analyzed and designed along with foundation
details.
3. BASED ON STRUCTURAL ACTION
SELF SUPPORTING
TOWERS
The towers that are supported
on ground or on buildings are
called as self-supporting
towers. Though the weight of
these towers is more they
require less base area and are
suitable in many situations.
Most of the TV, MW, Power
transmission, and flood light
towers are self-supporting
towers.
GUYED TOWERS
Guyed towers are normally
guyed in three directions. These
towers are much lighter than self
supporting type but require a
large free space to anchor guy
wires. Whenever large open
space is available, guyed towers
can be provided. There are other
restrictions to mount dish
antennae on these towers and
require large anchor blocks to
hold the ropes.
MONOPOLE
It is single self-supporting
pole, and is generally placed
over roofs of high raised
buildings, when number of
antennae required is less or
height of tower required is less
than 9m.
TYPES OF COMMUNICATION TOWERS
5. Based on the type of material sections :
Based on the sections used for fabrication, towers are classified into angular and hybrid
towers (with tubular and angle bracings). Lattice towers are usually made of bolted angles.
Towers with tubular members may be less than half the weight of angle towers because of the
reduced wind load on circular sections. However the extra cost of the tube and the more
complicated connection details can exceed the saving of steel weight and foundations.
Based on cross section of tower:
Towers can be classified, based on their cross section, into square, rectangular, triangular,
delta, hexagonal and polygonal towers. Triangular Lattice Towers have less weight but offer less
stiffness in torsion. With the increase in number of faces, it is observed that weight of tower
increases. The increase is 10% and 20% for square and hexagonal cross sections respectively.
Based on the number of segments:
The towers are classified based on the number of segments as Three slope tower; Two
slope tower; Single slope tower; Straight tower.
6. OBJECTIVES
The objective of this project is to design a Telecommunication tower, along with
foundation details, and to analyze it, below mentioned basic parameters are considered :
• Base width.
• Height of tower.
• Soil Bearing Capacity.
• Configuration of Tower.
Following research has to be carried out for meeting the above objectives:
• Soil exploration studies.
• Terminology of communication tower and its components.
• Different behaviors of towers.
• Methodology for analysis and design of communication towers.
7. To meet these objectives the following work has to be done:
• Towers are configured with keeping in mind all field and structural constraints on
AutoCAD 2015.
• Loading format including reliability, security and safety pattern are to be evaluated.
• Wind loading is calculated on the longitudinal face of the towers.
• Now all the towers are modelled and analyzed as a three dimensional structure
using STADD.Pro V8i and STAAD(X) Tower V8i.
• Finally tower members are designed as an angle sections.
8. DESIGN OF COMMUNICATION TOWERS
The following are the steps involved in design of communication tower:
• Selection of configuration of tower.
• Computation of loads acting on tower.
• Analysis of tower for appropriate loading conditions.
• Design of tower members according to codes of practices.
• Design of foundation according to codes of practices.
9. CONFIGURATION
A communication tower, like any other exposed structure, has a super
structure shaped, dimensioned and designed to suit the external loads and self-
weight
Selection of configuration of a tower involves fixing of top width, bottom
width, number of panels and their heights, type of bracing system and slope of
tower. The following are key parameters in configuration of tower.
• Width at bottom level = 4.00 m
• Width at top level = 1.20 m
• Overall Height = 30.00 m
• No. of levels = 09 levels
• Slope of outline of tower = 87º 8’ 15.34” (with horizontal)

12. LOAD CONSIDERATIONS
In case of communication towers self-weight of tower is most important component
of tower design. The tele communication steel tower is a pin-jointed light structure, It is
still assumed that their behavior is similar to simple truss.
The percentage of openings in Tower structure will be more than 30%, so wind
loads acting on the tower will be of less magnitude compared to chimneys, but the major
cause of failures of telecommunication tower throughout the world though still remains to
be high intensity winds (HIW). The major problem faced is the difficulty in estimating
wind loads as they are based on a probabilistic approach. There has been several studies in
telecommunication towers taking into consideration the wind as well as dynamic effect.
13. The loadings which are considered during this project are:
1. Dead loads or Vertical loads
( i.e. self weight of tower members, Self weight of antennas, labour and
equipment during construction and maintenance.)
2. Transverse loads
(Wind load on exposed members of the tower and antenna.)
Wind load on tower:
The wind load on tower can be calculated using the Indian standards IS: 875(Part 3)-
1987[3] and BS: 8100 (Part 1)-1996[4].
Wind load on antennae:
Wind load on antennae shall be considered from Andrew’s catalogue. In the Andrew’s
catalogue the wind loads on antennas are given for 200kmph wind speed. The designer
has to calculate the antenna loads corresponding to designwind speed.
14. DESIGN WIND PRESSURE
•At Tirupati region, the design wind speed = 39 m/s
•Design speed at the site = Vz = K1K2K3Vb
Risk co-efficient = K1 for 100 years life = 1.08
K2 , terrain factor for 30 m and class B of Terrain category 3 = 1.03
Topography factor (K3) = 1+ Cs
For the given plain topography K3 = 1 ( As C=0 )
• Vz = 1.08*1.03*1*39 = 55.62 m/s
• Design wind pressure = Pz = 0.6 Vz
2 = 1.86 KN/m2
15. Similarly the design wind pressures for different levels are calculated and tabulated as
follows:
Height (m) Design wind pressure
(KN/m2 )

12 1.44

18. MODELLING AND ANALYSIS
The lattice tower model was analyzed in ANSYS as well as in STAAD. Pro
V8i and STAAD(X) Tower V8i software package. The model was created using the
coordinate data for the points and the element connectivity table and suitable cross
sectional properties were assigned to the elements created. The boundary condition
was stimulated in the model by fixing the three lowermost nodes of the modeled
structure. The loads calculated above are applied at appropriate nodes and the stress
parameters, deformation of the structure under the effect of the applied load is
studied.
19.
20. DESIGN OF MEMBERS
Suitable steel sections are initially assumed as members of the tower for
analyzing the structure. Once the analysis is done members are finalized based on the
stresses developing in them, following the codal provisions provided by Indian
Standards.
• The maximum allowable stresses in the members are given in IS 802 (Part-1).
• Limiting slenderness ratios for members are given in IS 802(Part-1).
• Effective Length of compression members should be assumed as per IS
806(1968).
23. DESIGN OF SLAB BASE
As per IS 800:2007,
• Bearing strength of concrete = 0.6fck
• But for practical consideration bearing strength = 0.45fck
∴ Area of plate required =
𝑃𝑢
0.45𝑓𝑐𝑘
• Where Pu = Factored load
• Load on each leg is = 400KN
• Factored load on each leg = 600KN
• Area of plate required =
600
0.45×25
= 53333.33 mm2
∴ Side of each base plate = 300 × 300 mm2
24. • Minimum thickness required (ts) = (

∴ ts = (

)0.5
∴ ts =25 mm
(As ts >
tf (truss angle thickness ts = 12mm), hence safe.)
Connect base plate to foundation concrete using 4 No’s 20mm diameter and
300mm long anchor bolts.
If weld is to be used for connecting column to base plate check the weld length of
filler weeds.
26. Initially assume footing size = 5m × 5m
Uniform load on footing (W) =

Consider per meter width then load is = 32 KN/m
Maximum bending moment at center of footing = 100 KNm
Bending moment required Mu = 0.138fckbd2
100×106 = 0.138 × 25 × 1000 × d2
d = 170.25 mm
∴ d = 200 mm.
Area of steel required:
Mu = 0.87 fy Ast d (1-

Design of concrete column for slab base:
Axial load on the column = 600KN.
According to code axial load on column = 0.4fckAc + 0.67fyAst
(As per IS 456:2000)
600×103 = 0.4fckAc + 0.67fyAst
600×103 = 0.4×25×Ac + 0.67fyAst
28. Assume 1% of steel of concrete area.

∴ Ac = 46946.6 mm2 = 216.67 × 216.68 mm2

∴ Ac = 220 × 220 mm2

Hence provide 300 × 300 mm2 square column at 350mm from edge.
Height of this column above the raft footing = 450 mm
Area of steel = 1% of column cross section

require adequate communication means like mobile phones, internet, radio
communication etc. So there is need for proper communication systems
including radio stations, Communication towers. If we could optimize the
design of towers and use less resources, it will save a lot of money and
resources. In olden days angle sections are used in making of truss in
towers, currently tubular sections are preferred as they are more
economical.
The wind load acting on the telecommunication towers will be
comparatively less in magnitude as it is open structure with more openings,
but failure of the towers is mainly due to High Intensity Winds and
Earthquakes. So high factor of safety should be given to wind loads and
seismic loads.
