Tower and Antenna Wind Loading as a Function of Height

July/Aug 2001 23Do you want to determine the maximum safe Height ofyour freestanding Tower for any Antenna configuration as a Function of wind velocity? Use this approach to writea simple spreadsheet that will do the calculations in amatter of seconds and check the mast stress at the same Frank Travanty, W9 JCC808 Pendleton CtWaukesha, WI and AntennaWind Loading as aFunction of Height [Author s disclaimer: No liability isassumed for use of these calculationsthat results in bodily injury or propertyloss.

Three or four iterations will usu-ally get you close enough to the target bending moment. In this example, the target bending moment is 19,600 ft-lb. The entire table and chart can be com-
