300 Self-Supporting Antenna Tower
Henderson, Henderson County, Kentucky
HDA Project No. 04S-9999

Dear Mr. Smith,


Per your request, we have performed a structural analysis for the referenced antenna
tower. The purpose of the analysis was to investigate the structural adequacy of the tower for the
existing configuration (antennas, transmission lines and other appurtenances) under ice and wind
loading conditions with the addition of two, 8diameter high performance dish antennas with
transmission lines at 200 AGL.
Our structural analysis of the antenna tower is based on data provided by ABC Tower
and Tower Maintenance, Inc. and manufacturers' product data (please see Appendix A). We
assume that the data is correct. Structural analysis computations were performed utilizing
specialized computer software and the TIA-EIA-222-F Structural Standards for Steel Antenna
Towers and Antenna Supporting Structures. Please see Appendices B, C and D for structural
calculations.
Our structural analysis of the antenna tower indicates that the antenna tower is not in
conformance with the referenced design standard. Recommendations for tower modifications are
outlined below. The antenna tower structural analysis may be summarized as follows:

The adequacy of the foundation is not a part of this report. No geotechnical or


foundation installation information has been provided. The analysis results indicate that the
foundation reactions exceed the design reactions. We recommend that the foundation be further
investigated based on geotechnical information applicable for this site and the existing
foundation configurations.
This analysis report has been prepared without a site visit by Hodge Design Associates,
P.C. personnel. All sections, connections hardware, anchor material, etc. have been assumed to
be in good working order. Data provided by others is assumed to be correct. The opinions,
conclusions and recommendations contained in this report pertain only to the computer analysis
of the tower structure and the load carrying capacity of its members. It is the responsibility of
the tower owner, property manager or other responsible party to ensure that the tower is in good
working order and that the data provided by others is accurate and correct. The structural
analysis does not consider the fabrication quality, including welded and bolted connections,
except as specifically addressed in this report. If the structure has been altered or is different
from the tower depicted herein, Hodge Design Associates, P.C. should be informed immediately.
Hodge Design Associates, P.C. makes no warranties, expressed or implied in connection with
this report and disclaims any liability arising from the original design, material, fabrication and
erection deficiencies for this tower. The maximum liability of Hodge Design Associates, P.C.
pursuant to this report shall be limited to the total fee received for the preparation of this report.

Tower Input Data


The main tower is a 3x free standing tower with an overall height of 300' above the ground line.
The base of the tower is set at an elevation of 0' above the ground line.
The face width of the tower is 4' at the top and 26' at the base.
This tower is designed using the TIA/EIA-222-F standard.
The following design criteria apply:
Tower is located in Henderson County, Kentucky.
Basic wind speed of 70 mph.
Nominal ice thickness of 0.5000 in.
Ice density of 56 pcf.
A wind speed of 61 mph is used in combination with ice.
Temperature drop of 75 F.
Deflections calculated using a wind speed of 50 mph.
EXISTING TOWER CONDITION ANALYSIS.
It is assumed that the tower has been properly maintained and is in good condition..
It is assumed that there have been no structural modifications to the tower unless specifically noted otherwise..
There are no known structural defects and that there is no structural deterioration..
All welds and bolted connections are assumed capable of developing the member strength, unless noted otherwise..
Material strengths are as noted elsewhere in this report..
This structural analysis is based on information provided by others and assumed to be reliable and correct..
See Sheet E-7 for Feedlines and Linear Appurtenances..
See Sheet E-8 for Code Check/Stress Distribution..
A non-linear (P-delta) analysis was used.
Pressures are calculated at each section.
Stress ratio used in tower member design is 1.333.
Local bending stresses due to climbing loads, feedline supports, and appurtenance mounts are not considered.

It is assumed that there have been no structural modifications to the tower unless specifically noted otherwise..
There are no known structural defects and that there is no structural deterioration..
All welds and bolted connections are assumed capable of developing the member strength, unless noted otherwise..
Material strengths are as noted elsewhere in this report..
This structural analysis is based on information provided by others and assumed to be reliable and correct..
See Sheet E-7 for Feedlines and Linear Appurtenances..
See Sheet E-8 for Code Check/Stress Distribution..
A non-linear (P-delta) analysis was used.
Pressures are calculated at each section.
Stress ratio used in tower member design is 1.333.
Local bending stresses due to climbing loads, feedline supports, and appurtenance mounts are not considered.
