This book covers structural and foundation systems used in high-voltage transmission lines, conductors, insulators, hardware and component assembly. In most developing countries, the term “transmission structures” usually means lattice steel towers. The term actually includes a vast range of structural systems and configurations of various materials such as wood, steel, concrete and composites. This book discusses those systems along with associated topics such as structure functions and configurations, load cases for design, analysis techniques, structure and foundation modeling, design deliverables and latest advances in the field. In the foundations section, theories related to direct embedment, drilled shaf ts, spread foundations and anchors are discussed in detail. Featuring worked out design problems for students, the book is aimed at students, practicing engineers, researchers and academics. It contains beneficial information for those involved in the design and maintenance of transmission line structures and foundations. For those in academia, it will be an adequate text-book / design guide for graduate-level courses on the topic. Engineers and managers at utilities and electrical corporations will find the book a useful reference at work.

In the foundations section, theories related to direct embedment, drilled shafts, spread foundations, vibratory caissons, micro-piles and anchors are discussed in detail. Regulatory changes related to climate change are added in this edition along with a special chapter on complex design situations.Features:Covers transmission and distribution linesExplores modeling, analysis and designIncludes sections about structural and foundation systems Featuring worked out design problems for students, the book is aimed at students, practicing engineers, researchers and academics.
