Importance of Proper Telecom Structure Design

0

The design of telecom infrastructure relies on a thorough knowledge of engineering principals, knowledge of the Standard and a good understanding of the project site.  When implementing an infrastructure build-out project, the designer should ask a number of questions.  Is the structure on a hill or ridge?  What is an appropriate wind speed for the […]

What’s on your tower?

0

It is all too common for equipment to be installed on communication towers without a structural analysis being conducted.  It is also very common for towers, several decades old, to support equipment that they were never designed to carry.  Equipment evolves over time and towers must also evolve. The Telecommunications Industry Association’s Structural Standard for […]
