REINFORCEMENT STRUCTURES FOR TENSIONLESS CONCRETE PIER FOUNDATIONS AND METHODS OF CONSTRUCTING THE SAME
A reinforced tensionless concrete pier foundation for supporting a tower and a method of constructing the same is provided, the foundation having an outer CMP and an inner CMP with an annular space therebetween in which a plurality of sleeved tower anchor bolts are embedded, and the pier foundation including at least one reinforcement structure that at least partly encircles the outer CMP to provide one or more of increased lateral stiffness, increased shear resistance and overturning (upset) moment capacity, reduced bending, displacement, and deflection of the top of the pier, and improved conditioning, containment, skin friction and lateral bearing capacity of the surrounding soil and/or rock substrate that supports the tensionless pier.
