Fukasawa Toroegumi Iron Works, Lid, Japan ABSTRACT: Its well known that seismic response ofa transmission steel towers is affected by the reactions of, {he neighborly towers concerned with overhead wires. We have applied the Frequency response method asthe seismic response analysis to investigate characteristics of towers concerned with overhead wires. This method is effective to easly examine the response characteristics affected by phase differences and sifness of the neighbors. ‘And also this method needs less ealcalation time, since we can execute the single tower model which has spring tlements taken ito consideration ofthe effects of overhead wires. Then, we find thatthe response regions can be restricted by the present analysis method, which is compared with the multi-mass-points model analysis. Under the ‘general condition, we als limit the response region by using the simultaneous phase analysis. Consequently, we Proposed the moifedantiehquake design method icudig the general dea of "sory moment" LINTRODUCTION Seismic esponse of the transmission stel tower is affected by the coresponding reaction ofthe neigh- borly towers. In case of analysis without effects of the wie, the real response could be harder than that of the analytical result. Therefore, its important to study on seismic response characteristics of transmission steel towers with overhead wires. ‘This kind study has been much reported on the a case ofthe response characteristics for in-plane behavior of, the tension stel towers which ae alined each other with the same span, However, itis not much to study on effects ofthe behavior at the perpendicular direc- tion, and on phase differences and stiffness ratio of the neighbosly towers. And also itis not realized how ‘much the real behavior with the wire is estimated tobe larger than that of the single tower. This study represents quantitatively relationship between the response value andthe phase condition or stifness ratio of the neighborly tower, or kinds of| earthquakes. These were obtained by the coupled response analysis with frequency response method for the tension tower which is considered to be much affected by the overhead wire. Furthermore, we pro pose a method of aniearthquake design considering ‘coupled response and also a method of translation of the coupled model to the single tower model, 2 COUPLED RESPONSE ANALYSIS USING FREQUENCY RESPONSE METHOD ‘The frequency response method isa method of re- sponte calculation atthe frequency band transformed {rom the time band by Fourier transformation. In this sethod the response calculation atthe time band is performed by invert Fourier transformation to tbe response value obtained from multiplied complex amplitude content inthe seismic frequency’by the concemed amplification characteristics tothe each fequency content. ‘By this method the calculation is simplified because degree of the freedom is reduced by puting a dynamic spring on the analytical ower mode! 2.1 Theoretical equations ‘Aviation equation for multi-mass-points model, shown in FigL is described in the equation (1) MX + CX+ KX =-MIF, a 2X: displacement veetor §: seismic acceleration unit string vector Mz mass matrix (C:damping coefficient matrix_K: stiffness mati ‘And Fourier transformed seismic acceleration i repre sented inthe equation (2).

Incase thatthe towers having the same rigidity are infinitely continuously alined at even distance, the first condition is called as equiphase and the second condition is called asthe antiphase ‘The third condition is called asthe fx which means the both neighborly towers are regarded as completely rigid body.

However, shear Table 1 Excited frequency forthe coupled, natura frequency forthe single tower — Sere cau | Fe] Aiphone i as | as Q oe He Het ee a3 yo 26 a 2 256 — force ofthe foundation is more strongly affected by the higher order frequency. Table 1 shows dominant frequency ofthe coupled model.
