Abstract

Previous authors’ publications, related to the analysis of steel lattice towers, describe some problems connected with it, especially ones referring to the calculations made according to the past Polish Standards. This paper presents the possibilities of measuring the dynamic characteristics of towers, as one of experimental methods allowed in Eurocode, practicable in verification of load capacity of existing structures.

Keywords:

steel latticed towers, wind loads of latticed towers
