Design of Electrical Transmission Lines: Structures and Foundations

By Prasad Yenumula and Sriram Kalaga

This book addresses all structural systems used in high-voltage transmission lines, as well as their associated foundations. It also discusses the hardware used to support conductors, fabrication, and assembly. In developing countries, the term "transmission structures" tends to mean lattice towers. That term actually includes a vast range of structural systems and configurations of various materials such as wood, steel, and concrete. This work covers those structures and configurations, filling existing knowledge gaps with practical, state-of-the-art information. A companion volume to Design of Electrical Transmission Lines: Line and System Modeling, this book provides a handy resource for practicing engineers, researchers, students, academics, and managers at utilities and electrical corporations.
