ASMTower Result Verification
Project no.: 40m square tower Date: 12/21/2017 Sheet no.: of Computed by: M.Joe
Note : In manual calculation the base moment due to weight of panel antenna and MW dishes was not consided in the manual
calculation however ASMTower considerd. This is which cause slight difference between base moment
Conclusion :
From above caculations, it can be conclude that load calculation generated by ASMTower is
matched with the manual calculation for the 40m tower and the overall reaction of the tower
resulted from ASMTowe satisfy the equilbrium with applied loads
