Abstract A transmission tower is submitted to wind loads acting on the tower body and the conductors. A vertical difference of adjacent supports of conductors as well as a different distance between adjacent t...owers generates non-balanced tension of conductors, which acts on the tower as ‘non-balanced tension load’. We studied the static and dynamic properties of non-balanced tension of conductors which are running along supports of different height under strong winds. We concluded as follows; (1) Conductor’s non-balanced tensions acting on a transmission tower increased with vertical difference of adjacent supports. (2) The gusty wind response of a tower was bigger than an estimated value based on Design Standard on Structures for Transmission, JEC-127(1979).show more
