2 tower design data

3 Tower estimated weight and foundation force

MEGATRO performs in-house design activities specializing in electrical overhead transmission &telecom tower steel works, which include wind and earthquake loading, static analysis, stress analysis by finite element methods and fatigue. Our Engineering Department is boasting of highly qualified engineering who are conversant with international codes and standards. The work is carried out with extensive use of CAE/CAD via a large of computer network. The computer hardware & drafting software are liked to the CNC workshop equipment for downloading of information thereby eliminating error and saving valuable production time.

Besides, MEGATRO is one of the few manufactures who assemble a face of  500kV 5E6 SJ1 double circuit transmission tower. This attention to quality may not be the cheapest process but it does insure every tower meets our high standards of quality. And it helps to reduce on-site construction cost due to mismatched assemblies. After fabrication all 500kV 5E6 SJ1 double circuit transmission towers are delivered to the galvanizing facility to be Hot DIP Galvanized. Towers are processed through the facility by Caustic Cleaning, Pickling, and then Fluxing. These strict procedures insure years of maintenance free towers. All finished surfaces shall be level and free of tears, burrs, clots and impurities.

Except otherwise specified elsewhere in the specification, the surface treatment and corrosion protection for all metal parts shall be in conformity with the latest revision of the standards listed below:

ASTM A 123 zinc （hot-dipped galvanized） coating on iron and steel products

DIN 55928 Protective painting of steel structure instructions

DIN 55945 Painting materials-Notions

DIN 18363 Paint work-Buildings

DIN 18364 Surface protection work for steel

DIN 53210 Determination of rust degree

DIN 55151 Determination of adhesion

ISO4628/3 Determination of rust penetration

MEGATRO' 500kV 5E6 SJ1 double circuit transmission tower systems can accommodate a variety of cross-arm. MEGATRO also offers a wide variety of accessories and mounts.
