Urgent Alert: Addressing Telecom Tower Risks with Advanced Structural Health Monitoring Solutions

Structural failures in telecom towers can pose serious risks to both the infrastructure itself and the surrounding areas. Telecom towers are subjected to various environmental factors, loading conditions, and other challenges that can lead to structural issues.

Strong winds can induce vibrations in the tower structure. If the tower is not designed to handle these vibrations or if there are design flaws, fatigue, and structural failure may occur over time. Uneven settling of the tower foundation can lead to misalignment and structural stress. Over time, this can compromise the integrity of the tower. In regions prone to earthquakes, the seismic forces can induce structural vibrations and potentially cause damage or failure if the tower is not designed to withstand such forces. Regular monitoring and proactive measures can help identify and address potential issues before they lead to structural failure.

StructHEALTH Telecom-Tower solution presents Structural Health Monitoring Systems(SHM) and Monitoring Reporting Algorithms(MRA) benefits to customers. The installation of SHM devices, accelerometers, and inclination sensors, takes data from structures in real-time. Inclination sensors support to prevention of foundation issues. Thanks to the SHM system wind turbine doesn’t seem like a Pisa tower. Accelerometers help to prevent issues from vibrations.
