Summary

This paper reports the investigations carried out by WG.07 and B2.08 on the structural interaction between line towers and foundations. The main purpose was to analyze the impact of foundation movements on member forces. Using appropriate device, especially designed for applying up and down displacements, numerical simulations are compared with results in real scale tests.
