description | Transmission towers are an important component of the electric system, and their tall structural characteristics make them susceptible to failure under strong winds. Therefore, it is crucial to enhance the wind resistance of the transmission tower structures. This paper uses the finite element method to investigate the influence of a fixture-type reinforcement device (FRD) on the load-bearing performance of the transmission tower structure and explores the effects of different numbers of fixture pairs on the reinforcement. Based on this, the paper further analyzes the stress characteristics and failure modes of a typical tower structure under wind loads in two directions and investigates the influence of different reinforcement lengths on the wind resistance performance of the tower structure. The research results indicate that the FRD can effectively improve the deformation mode and failure characteristics of steel components under axial load. At the same time, using the FRD can effectively reduce the deformation of tower structures under strong wind, and only reinforcing three angled steel components can reduce the tower top displacement by about 55% and more. |
