Assessment of existing towers
Existing tower design checks, line upgrade reviews and engineering investigation of tower failures.
Discuss your projectThe engineering challenge
A clear basis.
A coordinated design.
Changes in loading, a proposed line upgrade or a tower failure call for a careful review of the available evidence. We check existing tower designs, assess capacity against the agreed requirements and prepare engineering findings to support decisions about further investigation or design work.
Where we contribute
Support through the details.
The scope is agreed around your project stage and available inputs.
Existing tower design checks
Review of available drawings, member and material details, original calculations and the design basis, followed by structural checks under the specified assessment criteria.
Upgrading and uprating reviews
Assessment of proposed loading or line changes, with findings on capacity, information gaps and any need for further investigation or strengthening design.
Tower failure reporting
Engineering review and failure reports for collapsed towers using the available design, inspection and site evidence. Recommendations identify the further investigation or design work needed.
A defined scope of work
From inputs
to useful outputs.
We confirm the required calculations, drawings and review support at the start of each engagement.
Typical areas of delivery
- Existing design information review and structural checks
- Capacity assessment for proposed line or loading changes
- Tower failure reports based on the available evidence
- Recommendations for investigation, strengthening review or further design
To start the conversation
Share the tower drawings, original calculations if available, proposed loading changes and inspection or condition records. For a failure investigation, include site photographs, event information and the available inspection and maintenance records.
