Longitudinal Forces on Transmission Towers due to Non-Symmetric Downburst Ground Wire Loads
Downburst thunderstorms are localized high-intensity wind events that are formed by an intensive downdraft of cold air that impinges on the ground causing high radial wind speeds. Spatial localization of downbursts causes unique oblique load cases on long-span structures such as transmission lines that do not occur during synoptic winds. This loading scenario causes an unsymmetrical wind loading along the spans of the cables, resulting in an unbalanced longitudinal force acting on the transmission tower of interest. This longitudinal force is highly nonlinear; it depends on the material and geometrical properties of the cables. Therefore, a nonlinear analysis should be conducted considering the various possibilities of downburst-cable configurations and the cable material and geometrical properties. This paper focuses on developing a simplified and manual approach to estimate this damaging longitudinal force, which develops in ground wires of transmission lines.
