Shallow foundation and layout of communication tower structure
When the foundation soil on the surface of the communication tower construction site has good bearing capacity, the deformation of the foundation can also be controlled within an acceptable range. The tension of the foundation can be borne by the foundation and the overburden, and a shallow foundation can be used.
Space truss towers usually have a foundation under each column. These independent foundations are connected by connecting beams to jointly bear the tower's own weight, bending moment and horizontal shear.
In order to resist the upward tension, the independent foundation under the column is an expanded reinforced concrete bottom plate, that is, a flat expansion bottom plate. The base plate can be round or rectangular with a certain thickness and equipped with double-layer steel bars to withstand the reaction from the foundation. Forces caused by bending moments and shear forces.
