Per your request, we have performed a structural analysis for the referenced antenna
tower. The purpose of the analysis was to investigate the structural adequacy of the tower for the
existing configuration (antennas, transmission lines and other appurtenances) under ice and wind
loading conditions with the addition of two, 8’diameter high performance dish antennas with
transmission lines at 200’ AGL.
Our structural analysis of the antenna tower is based on data provided by ABC Tower
and Tower Maintenance, Inc. and manufacturers' product data (please see Appendix A). We
assume that the data is correct. Structural analysis computations were performed utilizing
specialized computer software and the TIA-EIA-222-F Structural Standards for Steel Antenna
Towers and Antenna Supporting Structures. Please see Appendices B, C and D for structural
calculations.
Our structural analysis of the antenna tower indicates that the antenna tower is in
conformance with the referenced design standard for the proposed configuration. The antenna
tower structural analysis may be summarized as follows:

foundation reactions exceed the design reactions. We recommend that the foundation be further
investigated based on geotechnical information applicable for this site and the existing
foundation configurations.
This analysis report has been prepared without a site visit by Hodge Design Associates,
P.C. personnel. All sections, connections hardware, anchor material, etc. have been assumed to
be in good working order. Data provided by others is assumed to be correct. The opinions,
conclusions and recommendations contained in this report pertain only to the computer analysis
of the tower structure and the load carrying capacity of its members. It is the responsibility of
the tower owner, property manager or other responsible party to ensure that the tower is in good
working order and that the data provided by others is accurate and correct. The structural
analysis does not consider the fabrication quality, including welded and bolted connections,
except as specifically addressed in this report. If the structure has been altered or is different
from the tower depicted herein, Hodge Design Associates, P.C. should be informed immediately.
Hodge Design Associates, P.C. makes no warranties, expressed or implied in connection with
this report and disclaims any liability arising from the original design, material, fabrication and
erection deficiencies for this tower. The maximum liability of Hodge Design Associates, P.C.

The main tower is a 3x guyed tower with an overall height of 300' above the ground line.
The base of the tower is set at an elevation of 0' above the ground line.
The face width of the tower is 3' at the top and tapered at the base.
This tower is designed using the TIA/EIA-222-F standard.
The following design criteria apply:
Tower is located in Henderson County, Kentucky.
Basic wind speed of 70 mph.
Nominal ice thickness of 0.5000 in.
Ice density of 56 pcf.
A wind speed of 61 mph is used in combination with ice.
Temperature drop of 75 °F.
Deflections calculated using a wind speed of 50 mph.
See Sheet E-7 for Feedlines and Linear Appurtenances..
See Sheet E-8 for Code Check/Stress Distribution..
Pressures are calculated at each section.
Safety factor used in guy design is 2.
Stress ratio used in tower member design is 1.333.
Local bending stresses due to climbing loads, feedline supports, and appurtenance mounts are not considered.
Options
Consider Moments - Legs Distribute Leg Loads As Uniform v Treat Feedline Bundles As Cylinder
Consider Moments - Horizontals Assume Legs Pinned Use ASCE 10 X-Brace Ly Rules
Consider Moments - Diagonals v Assume Rigid Index Plate v Calculate Redundant Bracing Forces
Use Moment Magnification v Use Clear Spans For Wind Area v Ignore Redundant Members in FEA
v Use Code Stress Ratios v Use Clear Spans For KL/r v SR Leg Bolts Resist Compression
v Use Code Safety Factors - Guys v Retension Guys To Initial Tension v All Leg Panels Have Same Allowable
Escalate Ice Bypass Mast Stability Checks Offset Girt At Foundation
Always Use Max Kz v Use Azimuth Dish Coefficients v Consider Feedline Torque
Use Special Wind Profile v Project Wind Area of Appurt. v Include Angle Block Shear Check
v Include Bolts In Member Capacity Autocalc Torque Arm Areas Poles
v Leg Bolts Are At Top Of Section v SR Members Have Cut Ends v Include Shear-Torsion Interaction
v Secondary Horizontal Braces Leg v Sort Capacity Reports By Component Always Use Sub-Critical Flow
Use Diamond Inner Bracing (4 Sided) v Triangulate Diamond Inner Bracing Use Top Mounted Sockets
Add IBC .6D+W Combination

The main tower is a 3x guyed tower with an overall height of 300' above the ground line.
The base of the tower is set at an elevation of 0' above the ground line.
The face width of the tower is 3' at the top and tapered at the base.
This tower is designed using the TIA/EIA-222-F standard.
The following design criteria apply:
Tower is located in Henderson County, Kentucky.
Basic wind speed of 70 mph.
Nominal ice thickness of 0.5000 in.
Ice density of 56 pcf.
A wind speed of 61 mph is used in combination with ice.
Temperature drop of 75 °F.
Deflections calculated using a wind speed of 50 mph.
See Sheet E-7 for Feedlines and Linear Appurtenances..
See Sheet E-8 for Code Check/Stress Distribution..
Pressures are calculated at each section.
Safety factor used in guy design is 2.
Stress ratio used in tower member design is 1.333.
Local bending stresses due to climbing loads, feedline supports, and appurtenance mounts are not considered.
Options
Consider Moments - Legs Distribute Leg Loads As Uniform v Treat Feedline Bundles As Cylinder
Consider Moments - Horizontals Assume Legs Pinned Use ASCE 10 X-Brace Ly Rules
Consider Moments - Diagonals v Assume Rigid Index Plate v Calculate Redundant Bracing Forces
Use Moment Magnification v Use Clear Spans For Wind Area v Ignore Redundant Members in FEA
v Use Code Stress Ratios v Use Clear Spans For KL/r v SR Leg Bolts Resist Compression
v Use Code Safety Factors - Guys v Retension Guys To Initial Tension v All Leg Panels Have Same Allowable
Escalate Ice Bypass Mast Stability Checks Offset Girt At Foundation
Always Use Max Kz v Use Azimuth Dish Coefficients v Consider Feedline Torque
Use Special Wind Profile v Project Wind Area of Appurt. v Include Angle Block Shear Check
v Include Bolts In Member Capacity Autocalc Torque Arm Areas Poles
v Leg Bolts Are At Top Of Section v SR Members Have Cut Ends v Include Shear-Torsion Interaction
v Secondary Horizontal Braces Leg v Sort Capacity Reports By Component Always Use Sub-Critical Flow
Use Diamond Inner Bracing (4 Sided) v Triangulate Diamond Inner Bracing Use Top Mounted Sockets
Add IBC .6D+W Combination
