Steel Telecom Tower Repair

Every steel structure signal tower in Thailand faces the following common problems after 10 years of use:

• Corrosion: Due to long-term exposure to the natural environment, steel structure signal towers may be affected by corrosion factors such as humidity, rainwater, and salt in the atmosphere, resulting in corrosion and rusting of the steel surface.

• Fatigue damage: Under periodic wind loads, vibrations, and other external forces, the components of steel structure signal towers may experience fatigue damage, manifested as cracks, deformation, and other problems, especially in connection nodes and stress concentration areas.

• Bending and deformation: Due to long-term bearing of loads such as gravity and wind, the components of steel structure signal towers may experience bending and deformation, leading to overall imbalance, deviation or inclination of the structure.

Because carbon fiber has the characteristics of high strength, lightweight, and corrosion resistance, it has been decided to use carbon fiber to reinforcement steel telecom tower 

• Carbon fiber materials have excellent strength characteristics and a higher strength mass ratio compared to traditional steel. By using carbon fiber reinforcement materials, the structural strength and load-bearing capacity of the signal tower can be significantly improved, and its wind and seismic resistance can be increased.

• Carbon fiber material is a lightweight material that is lighter compared to traditional steel and can reduce the self weight load of signal towers. This helps to reduce the force and vibration on the tower body and improve structural stability.

• Carbon fiber materials have excellent corrosion resistance and are not affected by corrosion factors such as humidity, salinity, and chemicals in the atmosphere. This enables carbon fiber reinforced materials to maintain their performance and strength for a longer period of time under harsh environmental conditions.
