Lattice Towers

[petersson]

Hello forum

I was looking for tower (TL and communications) related posts here, and I haven't found anything yet...

Maybe it is a good idea to share what we have, isn't it?

Well, here are some books that can be easily found in the Internet. They contain the fundamentals behind latticed towers and their design:

· Elias G. Abu-Saba - "Design of Steel Structures"
· Brockenbrough & Merritt - "Structural Steel Designer's Handbook"
· McCormac & Csernak - "Structural Steel Design"
· N. Subramanian - "Steel Structures"
· Chen Wai-Fah - "Structural Engineering Handbook"

I would be grateful if someone with knowledge about this subject could share (at least the title of) his/her preferred books and norms.

I find very useful the ASCE 10-97, but of course there are more norms about steel towers.
