Design of Steel Transmission Pole Structures specifi es requirements
for the design, fabrication, testing, assembly, and erection
of cold-formed tubular members and connections for steel
electrical transmission pole structures. Structure components
(members, connections, guys) are selected to resist factored
design loads at stresses approaching yielding, buckling, fracture,
or any other limiting condition specifi ed in this standard. Distribution,
substation, communication, and railroad electric
traction structures are not included within the scope of this
standard.
Before the initial publication of this standard in 2005, most
electric transmission design professionals used ASCE's Engineering
Manual and Report on Engineering Practice No. 72 titled Design of Steel Transmission Pole Structures as their primary
reference for providing a uniform basis for designing, fabricating,
testing, assembling, and erecting steel transmission pole
structures. The second edition of Manual 72 served as the
primary resource document for the development of the original
version of this standard, ASCE 48-05. This document is the fi rst
revision to this standard and is intended to replace ASCE 48-05
in its entirety.
Units of measurement herein are expressed fi rst in English
units followed by the Systems International (SI) units in parentheses.
Formulae are based on English units, and, thus, some
formulae require a conversion factor to use SI units. The appropriate
conversion factor is given after each formula.
