ASSESSMENT OF TELECOMMUNICATION TOWERS FORWIND AND EARTHQUAKE LOADS IN ETHIOPIA
Large number of telecommunication towers has been constructed in Ethiopia during last few decades with the rapid development of telecommunication sector in the country. These towers play a significant role especially in wireless communication and failure of such tower due to wind loads and earth quake produces magnificent loss in the economy of a country like Ethiopia. Therefore, design of telecommunication towers considering all possible extreme conditions is of utmost importance and a good design can be considered as a step towards a greater degree of sustainability. In these study the researcher tried to model one existing Telecom Tower in Ethiopia which is located in seismic zone (zone 4) of the national map using SAP2000, the results obtained from the software analysis were tabulated, compared and the governing loads are identified and conclusions were drawn. Accordingly among the two main lateral loads on the Tower (wind and Earth quack) compared by the researcher the earth quack loads govern the design.
