 Megatro 765kv V Type Guyed Suspension Tower

Besides, MEGATRO is one of the few manufactures who assemble a face of 765kv V type guyed suspension tower. This attention to quality may not be the cheapest process but it does insure every tower meets our high standards of quality. And it helps to reduce on-site construction cost due to mismatched assemblies. After fabrication all 765kv V type guyed suspension towers are delivered to the galvanizing facility to be Hot DIP Galvanized. Towers are processed through the facility by Caustic Cleaning, Pickling, and then Fluxing. These strict procedures insure years of maintenance free towers. All finished surfaces shall be level and free of tears, burrs, clots and impurities.



4. Tower code numbers and marking
a)  New tower designs accepted for manufacture will be allocated a tower code number consisting of three digits, This number is to be used in conjunction with the tower type letters and
tower descriptions given in the schedules to form the titles of the various towers.
· For example:
Suspension tower type 422 A
0° - 15 ° Angle strain tower type 422 B
These titles are to be used on all correspondence, drawings, test reports, etc., relating to a
particular tower.
b)  Each tower member shall be allocated an identifying number by the manufacturer, which shall
correspond, to the number on the appropriate tower erection drawing.
c)  The tower code number and the tower type letter are to be clearly stamped on every member of the tower as a prefix to the member mark number.  All steelwork shall carry a manufacturer's
identification marking consisting of a maximum of three letters.  This shall be of the same letter
height as the number code.  Acceptance of the marking shall be obtained prior to usage.  These
marks shall be stamped before galvanising and be clearly legible after galvanising and erection,
e.g.: on back to back members these markings shall be on the flange without stitches.
5.  Shackles and extension links
a)  Each tower with shackles and extension links for insulator string attachments of a size and strength suitable for attaching the conductor insulator assemblies, and earth conductor hardware assemblies to the tower at the appropriate positions.
b)  Shackles, split pins and extension links shall be designed and fabricated according to the relevant specifications.
c)  Shackles for insulator string attachments shall be of the correct length, to connect the insulator
hardware supplied to the attachment point on the tower.
d)  The shackles shall be of the type secured by means of a bolt, nut and split pin. The split pin shall be of stainless steel, with a minimum diameter of 5mm.
e)  The orientation shall be as follows:
·  Suspension shackle for earth and phase conductors:  When viewed on the transverse
face, the legs of the shackle are to be in the vertical plane and at right angles to the
direction of the line.
·  Strain shackle for earth and phase conductors:  When viewed on the transverse face,
the legs of the shackle are to be in the vertical plane parallel to the direction of the line.
7.1.8 Anti-climbing devices
a)  Anti-climbing devices shall be designed for each tower.  These are to be attached at a height of approximately 3m, but not less than 2,5m above ground level.
b)  Where long leg extensions are used, an anti-climbing device shall be installed on individual legs at a height of not less than 3m and not more than 5m above ground level.
c)  Anti-climbing devices shall be formed by stringing onto projecting steel supporting members,
fencing wire consisting of 2,5mm double-strand uni-directional twist pattern, galvanised steel
barbed wire.  Spacing between strands shall not be more than 100mm centres, the first being not
more than 100mm from the tower face, and forming an overhang of not less than 500mm beyond
the outer face of the tower.  This overhang distance shall be maintained at the tower corners.  On
small anti-climbing devices such as on legs of guyed "V" towers, twin single strand barbed wire
may be used.
d)  The strands of barbed wire shall be secured at intervals, not exceeding 2m, by spacers formed by pieces of the same barbed wire bound to the strung barbed wire by galvanised binding wire.
Where barbed wire other than galvanised steel is specified, the spacers and binding wire shall be
compatible.
e)  Where the design of the towers is such that they can be climbed on the inner face, a similar anti-
climbing device shall extend from the inner face of the tower.
6.  Step bolts
a)  One leg of each tower shall be equipped with step bolts at approximately 400mm centres, starting immediately above the anti-climbing devices and extending to the highest crossarm of the tower. The bolts shall be fixed to the main leg members of the tower by means of two hexagonal nuts. The length of the cylindrical section of each step bolt shall not be less than 150mm, as measured from the outside face of the main leg to the bolt head.  Holes for step bolts shall be on all leg extensions from ground level up.  No step bolts shall be installed below the anti-climbing device except for construction purposes.
b)  The bolts shall be uniformly spaced, continuous and in line over gusset plates.  Where 20mm
tower bolts are used 16mm step bolts may be fitted in a 21,5mm hole, but at connections only.  In
the connection this bolt shall be ignored when calculating the number of bolts required.
c)  In the case of double circuit towers, two diagonally opposite legs shall be equipped with step bolts and shall extend to the underside of the top crossarm.

Limiting L/r ratios
·  Leg members and main chord members in crossarm/bridge and earth conductor peak - 120.
·  All other members carrying calculated stress - 200.
·  Redundants not carrying calculated stress - 250.

·  The maximum allowable design stresses for bolts shall be as follows:
·  Shear on unthreaded portion of bolt  -  250mPa
On multiple bolt connections allowance must be made, in accordance with either
SABS 0162, ASCE Manual No. 52 or ECCS No. 39, for the group effect, which will
tend to decrease the permissible shear on the bolts.
·  Tension on net area of bolt - 400mPa.
7. Tension design
a)  "Tension-only systems" are not permitted.  Each member shall be designed for the forces it
attracts from the externally applied loads, due to its location and stiffness.
b)  If unequal angles are used, they should be connected by the long leg when practicable.  When
the outstanding leg exceeds the connected leg, the net area shall be determined as for an
equal angle based on the connected leg.
8. Bearing design
Bearing on contact area (bolt diameter ´ material thickness) ƒb = 575mPa.
9. Member thickness
a)  The outline or main chord members of a tower shall have a minimum thickness of 5mm
regardless of bolt size. The minimum thickness of steel sections using 16mm bolts shall be
3mm.  When using 20mm to 24mm bolts, the minimum thickness for any member shall be
4mm.
b)  Where members of the same size but of different thickness are to be used in the same tower design the difference in thickness shall be more than 1mm. Spacing of bolts
The distance from the centre of a bolt to the face of the outstanding flange of an angle or other
member shall be such as to permit the use of a socket spanner for tightening the nut.
Pad and plinth foundations for guyed tower centre supports
a)  The mast support foundations for guyed towers shall be designed to withstand, with less than 20mm
of settlement, the maximum foundation reactions resulting from the loadings stated in the Works
Information, with the dead weight of the tower included at unity factor of safety.
b)  The minimum depth of the mast support foundation/s shall be 750mm in type '1' and type '2' soil, and 1000mm in type '3' and type '4' soil.  The soil at the bottom of the foundation shall resist all stresses resulting from the vertical compressive loads and toe pressures due to horizontal shears.
The mass of the foundation less the mass of the soil displaced by the foundation, shall be included
in the vertical load applied.
c)  The foundations shall be designed for the maximum combinations of compression and horizontal shear forces.  In addition, a 900mm projection of the plinth above ground level in the case of cross rope suspension type towers, and a 650mm projection in the case of guyed 'V' type towers, shall be incorporated in the design to allow for leg extension increments.
d)  All concrete subjected to a tension where the permissible tensile stress is exceeded, shall be
adequately reinforced with steel reinforcing bars in compliance with SABS 920. The design shall be in accordance with the requirements of SABS 0100.
e)  Anchoring of the tower bases of guyed "V" towers shall be by means of anchor bolts. The maximum shear on anchor bolts shall be 0,65ƒy.  If the anchor bolts must resist compression loads from the base plate, the compression load shall be resisted by mechanical anchorage, and not by adhesion between steel and concrete, unless deformed bars are utilised for anchor bolts.
d)  Rock anchors
Foundations utilising grouted rock anchors will be considered by the Project Manager if the following
criteria are met:
i)  A minimum of four vertical rock anchors shall be used and connected to the structural steelwork
by means of a reinforced concrete pile/anchor cap.  Inclined rock anchors shall not be used
without the Project Manager's prior acceptance.
ii)  The rock anchors shall be designed to resist the full axial forces imparted by the maximum
combinations of uplift and compression loadings, and additional axial loads due to the total
horizontal base shear.  The design shall incorporate a 650mm minimum projection of the
foundation above ground level.  The rock anchors shall not carry any shear load.
iii)  The pile/anchor cap shall be designed to resist the total horizontal base shear. No horizontal
shear resistance shall be assumed for re-compacted excavated soil.  The base of the pile cap
shall be extended to a minimum of 150mm below the top of sound rock over its full area
irrespective of horizontal shear resistance requirements.
iv)  The rock anchors shall be reinforced for their entire length in order to resist the applied axial
forces and the reinforcing extends into the pile cap sufficiently and is suitably anchored to ensure full utilisation of reinforcement from pile/anchor cap to anchor.  The cap shall be
reinforced to withstand the shear and bending forces applied by the structural steelwork.  The
rock anchor reinforcing steel shall be debonded, by a method accepted by the Project Manager
for a length of 100mm above and 300mm below the pile cap base.
v)  Rock anchors shall only be installed in hard rock, or sound competent soft rock. Proposals to
utilise rock anchors in materials such as shale etc. must be specifically accepted by the
Project Manager after a pile/anchor test, as described in clause 6.1.6.4 e) below, has been
conducted.  An additional test to verify that the pile cap will resist the entire horizontal base
shear may also be required if so specified by the  Project Manager.  The lateral pressure on the
leading face of the cap in rock, as well as the friction on the two side faces in rock, shall be the
lesser of 135kPa or 80% of the permissible value determined from appropriate tests.
vi)  The use of grout mixes, including proprietary mixes, must be accepted by the  Project Manager prior to the use of such.  Documented evidence of use in other similar applications, which have been accepted by a recognised authority, shall be submitted as proof of suitability.  In-situ rock anchor testing shall be carried out as specified in clause 6.1.6.4 e) below.
vii)  Rock anchors with diameter smaller than 85mm shall only be installed in sound competent rock where the holes have uniform diameters, straight sides and special grouts is used (epoxy or
similar with 50mPa minimum strength) as approved by the Project Manager.  In-situ rock anchor
testing shall be carried out as specified in clause 6.1.6.4 e) below.
