Join SEI Host Jennifer Goupil for a big-picture discussion of the state of the electrical transmission structures industry with the past and current chairs of ASCE 48 Ken Sharpless and Nick Grossenbach.
ASCE/SEI 48 Design of Steel Transmission Pole Structures — the primary reference for structural engineers and construction managers involved in designing and building electrical transmission lines — provides a uniform basis for the design, detailing, fabrication, testing, assembly, and erection of steel tubular structures for electrical transmission poles. These guidelines apply to cold-formed single- and multi-pole tubular steel structures that support overhead transmission lines. The design parameters are applicable to guyed and self-supporting structures using a variety of foundations, including concrete caissons, steel piling, and direct embedment.
The expert panel will begin the session with an overview discussion on the state of the industry, the role the standard plays in the profession, and why it was updated. Then, Ken and Nick will present the technical changes in ASCE/SEI 48-19, provide relevant design examples, and wrap up the session with a live Q&A from the audience.
