Summary

This Brochure reports on the influence exerted by the statically indeterminate (hyperstatic) modeling on the behavior of Lattice OHL towers. For this purpose 3 prototype towers were designed, manufactured and tested. The tests were monitored with manufactured strain-gage systems, allowing real time readings on bar loads. Interesting conclusions are shown comparing the estimated versus measured forces on the prototypes bars.
