Abstract

The design of every new transmission line can address the solutions to fresh engineering problem. Therefore, the selection of the monopole structures in place of conventional lattice towers summarized the obligatory design parameters. The reliability climatic wind loads and the security longitudinal broken wire load combinations influence the internal parameter assessment of the steel pole structures. To assess them, a 60m high double circuit (DC) 220kV line with 305 m basic span is selected. All the Six wind zones (33, 39, 44, 47, 50, and 55 m/s) of India are selected to compute the transverse wind loads on the tower. Secondly broken wire security load in the longitudinal direction is adopted for the load combination for the monopole transmission tower design. With the above data, this paper presented the variation of the internal parameters in the wind zones. It is found that even though the basic wind speed from 33 m/s to 55 m/s is increased to 66.66%, top deflection is increased by 1.6%, a bending moment is enhanced by 6.3 % and shear force is increased by 12.6% only. The results show the change of wind speed has a little effect on the monopole tower. However, the variations of internal parameters in the wind zone are strongly depending on the Longitudinal loading only. The ASCE 48-19 steel monopole code is adopted to design the monopole since the Indian standard design code for monopole was not found. However, when comparing with the Indian Standard general Steel code IS 800-2007(Limit state) design guidelines, the Indian steel code contributes 10% more weight.
