July 26,2013 <br /> 190-ft Self Support Tower Structura!Modification Ana/ysis CC!BU No 826548 <br /> TEP Project Number 48i67.7359,Application i85469, Revision 4 Page 3 <br /> 1) INTRODUCTION <br /> This tower is a 190-ft self-support tower designed by Valmont Microflect in January of 1998. The tower was <br /> originally designed for a wind speed of 105 mph per EIA/TIA-222-F for the appurtenances listed in Table 3. TEP <br /> did not visit the site. All information provided to TEP was assumed to be accurate and complete. <br /> 2) ANALYSIS CRITERIA <br /> The analysis has been performed in accordance with the 2010 Florida Buiidina Code based upon an ultimate 3- <br /> second gust wind speed of 137 mph converted to a nominal 3-second gust wind speed of 108 mph per section <br /> 1609.3.1 as required for use in the TIA-222-G Standard per Exception #5 of Section 1609 1.1 with the following <br /> design criteria: <br /> 1) Tvpe of Analvsis� Rigorous Structural Analysis <br /> 2) Classification of Structure: Class II <br /> Definition: Structures used for services that due to height, use or location represent a significant <br /> hazard to human life and/or damage to property in the event of failure and/or used for services that <br /> may be provided by other means. <br /> 3) Exposure Cateaorv: Exposure C <br /> Definition: Open terrain with scattered obstructions having heights generally less than 30-ft. This <br /> category includes flat, open country, grasslands and shorelines in hurricane prone regions. <br /> 4) Topoaraphic Cateaorv• Category 1 <br /> Definition: No abrupt changes in general topography, e.g. flat or rolling terrain, no wind speed-up <br /> consideration shall be required. <br /> 5) Earthquake CateQOrv: Not Considered <br /> Commentary� Earthquake effects may be ignored per this standard for site locations where Ss does <br /> not exceed 1.0. (Pasco County Ss =0.10). <br /> Table 1 - Proposed Antenna and Cable Information <br /> Cenfer Number Number Feed <br /> Mounting Line Antenna <br /> of Antenna Model of Feed Line Note <br /> Level(ft) Elevation qntennas Manufacturer Lines Size(in� <br /> (ft) <br /> 160.0 160 0 6 CSS 'CAP-FRO-656 w/Mount Pipe� - ; - I - i <br /> Table 2- Existing Antenna and Cable Information <br /> Cen#er Number Number Feed <br /> Mounting Line Antenna <br /> of Antenna Modet of Feed Line Note <br /> Level(ft) Elevation Antennas �anufacturer Lines Size(in) <br /> (ft) <br /> < 9 Andrew { ECC1920-VPUB € � , � <br /> 4 Andrew � ETW190VS12UB i <br /> 9 Cellmax CMA-BDHH/6521/EO-6 � � <br /> Technologies w/Mount Pipe � � j <br /> 190.0 194�0 2 Nokia �� FRIE 14 � 1-5/8 3 1 ` <br /> _._.. _____�� ___ <br /> 5 Nokia ; FRIG , � <br /> . _.._._._. ---. .._. ..____._._.. .._.�.__ .._...,_...._.,.. _._---- -- , <br /> 3 Nokia FXFB I � � <br /> � 1 Raycap � OVP_DC1-48-60-0-15D I � ; � <br /> �..---.-.--.--_---. ._..._.. .---. __.___.__________ _._ ----__�.._.._....___._._ _ <br /> 190.0 1 Tower Mounts Platform Mount [LP 715-1]� j <br /> tnxTower Report-version 6.0 4.0 <br />
