TELECOM TOWER DAMPING
Telecom towers are subject to the same stresses as buildings and other structures, including significant wind loads. Motioneering helps telecom providers protect the performance and longevity of cell towers by mitigating wind-induced motion for this valuable infrastructure.
A combination of factors – including rapidly evolving communications equipment and newly established design criteria – make damping solutions an increasingly urgent imperative for the owners and operators of telecom tower networks. Drawing on renowned wind engineering capabilities and over 25 years of structural damping experience, Motioneering has developed a set of efficient, out-of-the-box damping solutions for the telecom tower industry.
Our telecom tower dampers:
-
reduce wind-induced motion to within acceptable limits for communications equipment
-
extend the design life of telecom towers by reducing cumulative fatigue damage
-
widen the operating range of equipment during storms
-
allow new technologies to be implemented on existing infrastructure.
SAMPLE APPLICATIONS
Monopole Model
This device’s circular, compartmentalized configuration makes it suitable for
monopole cross-section towers.
Shrouded Tripole Model
This device’s linear, elongated configuration is best for triangular cross-section towers.
In addition to versatile off-the-shelf damping systems, Motioneering can deliver custom solutions that meet the needs of unusual structures or wind environments.
