STRUCTURAL STANDARDS FOR STEEL ANTENNA TOWERS AND ANTENNA SUPPORTING STRUCTURES OBJECTIVE
The objective of these standards is to provide I&,&= uitezia for specifying and designing steel antenna towers and antenna supporting structures. These standardsare not intended to replace or supersede applicable codes. me information contained in these standards was obtained from sources as referenced and noted herein and represents, in the judgement of the subcommittee, the accepted industry practices for minimum standardsfa the design of steel antenna suppohg structures. It is for general information only. while it ia believed to be accurate, this information should not be relied upon for any specific application without competent professional examination and verification of its accuracy, suitability, and applicability by a licensed professional engineer These standards utilize wind loading criteria baaedon an annual probability and are not intended to cover d environmental conditions which could exist at a particular location. These standards apply to steel antenna towers and antenna supporting structures for all classesof cmmmications service, such as AM, CATS, FM, Microwave, Cellular, TV, VHF, etc. These standards may be adapted for international use; however, it is necessary to determine the appropriate basic wind speed (fastest-mile) and ice load at the site location in the specific co~npy based on local meteorological data. Equivalent International System of Units (SI) are given iu brackets [ ] throughout these standards. SI conversion factors have been provided in Annex G. It is the responsibility of the purchaser to provide site-specific data and requirements differing from those contained in these standards. Annex A provides a checklist for assisting the purchaseri.nspecifying the requirements for a specific structure when using these standards..The user is cautioned that local conditions of wind and ice, if known, have precedence over the minimum standards described herein.

SCOPE
These standards describe the requirements for steel antenna towers and antenna supporting stnmures. 1 1.1 MAIERIAJd Standard 1.1.1 Material shall conform to one of the following standards except as provided in 1.1.2. 1.1.1.1 Structural steel, cast steel, steel forgings, and bolts shall confom~ to the material specifications listed in the June 1, 1989, American Institute of Steel Constmction, Specification for Structural Steel Buildings - Allowable Stress Design and Plastic Design, hereinafter referred to as the AISC specification. 1.1.1.2 Light gauge steel stmctural members shall be structural quality as defined by the August 19, 1986, American Iron and Steel Institute, Specification for the Design of Cold-Formed Steel Stmctural Members, hereinafter referred to as the AISI spe@fication. 1.1.1.3 Material for tubular steel pole structures and components shall conform to section 7.0 of A.NSI/NEhtA TTl- 1983, Tapered Tubular Steel Structures.

2.3.1.1 The total design wind load shall include the sum of the horizontal forces applied to the structure in the direction of the wind and the design wind load on guys and discrete appurtenances.
231.2 This standard does not specifically state an ice requirement.

If the structure is to be located where ice accumulation is expected, consideration shall be given to an ice load when specify& the requirements for the structure. (Refer to Annexes A and H.)

2.3.2 The horizontal force (F) applied to each section of the structure shall be calculated from the equation: F=qzGHCCFAE+~(CAAP31(lb>N Not to exceed 2 QZG & where AC = Gross area of one tower face (ft2) [m2] (Note: All appurtenances, including antennas,mounts and lines, shall be assumedto remain intact and attached to the stmcture regardless of their wind load capacities.) 2.3.3 The velocity pressure (Q) and the exposure coeffkient (K3;) shall be calculated from the equations (see Annex A):

The additional projected area caused by the ice accumulation may be considered cylindrical even though the bare projected area is flat. Consideration shall be given to the change in shapefrom round to flat for closely spaced linear appurtenances with ice accumulations.) 2.3.5.2 For cantilevered tubular steel pole structures, the structure force coefficient (CF) shall be determined from Table 1. 2.3.6 The effective projected area of structural components (AE) for a section shail be calculated from the equation: AE = DF AF + DR AR RR (f$) Cm*] (Note: For tubular steel pole structures, AE shall be the actual projected area basedon pole diameter or overall width.) 2.3.6.1 The wind direction factors, & and &, shall be determined from Table 2. 2.3.6.2 The reduction factor (RR) for round structural components shall be calculated from the equation: RR = .51e2 + .57 RR < 1.0

Site may be within a special wind region indicated on AXE 7-88 wind map.Check with local authorities before specifying basic wind speed. 2. County is within 100 miles from hurricane oceanline. Tabulated values of basic wind speed have been adjusted in accordance with AXE 7-88 to obtain 50-year recurrence intervals. 3. For locations not designated as a county, use basic wind speed for the closest county to the site. 4. The wind speedslisted in Section 16 are fastest-mile wind speeds.3-secondgust speedssuch as those contained in ASCE 7-95, and wind speeds averaged over other time periods, must be converted to fastest-mile wind speeds for use with this standard. (Refer to Annex A, Section
777)

ANNEX A: PURCHASER CHECKLIST

ElM-IA-222 standards are intemkd to set minimum uitaia for the design, fabrication and ~o~~cth of antenna supporting stnrctures. It is the responsibility of the purchaser to provide Site-specific data and requirements differing from those contained in these standards. The following checklist is intended to alert the purchaser to the most common areas where specific data may be required. Reference Section 2.1.3

Purchaserchecklist

A. It is the responsibility of the purchaser to verify that the wind loads and design criteria specified meet the rquirements of the local building code. If other loading criteria are required, they shall be provided to the designer. B. This standard is basedon an allowable stressdesign (ASD) method. Therefore, the use of terms with an ambiguity in meaning and intent such as survival, shall withstand, etc. is not appropriate. C. Dividing the calculated wind pressure by a factor is considered inconsistent with this standard. See 2.1.3.1 for the proper definition of basic wind speed. 2.3.1.2 A. It is the responsibility of the purchaser to specify appropriate ice loads for locations where ice accumulation is known to occur. B. The standard does not specify ice-loading requirements since ice accumulation may vary subst~tially within a given geographical area. C. It is recommended that a rn,hhm. l/2 in. C12.7 mm] of solid radial ice be specified for locations where ice accumulation is known to occur. 2.3.3 A. For bidding purposes it is recommended that the purchaser specify the basic wind speed (V) to obtain designs based on identical criteria. Wind speedsspecified for use with the standard shall be fastest-mile wind speeds at 33 ft [lo m] above ground level. B. The basic wind speed from Section 16, the equations for the exposure coefficient (Kz), and the gust response factor (cH> are based on wind conditions in open, level country, and grasslands. C. The equations specified for Kz and G result in conswvative design wind loads for thm and wooded areas. D. It is the responsibility of the purchaser to specify basic wind speeds and appropriate equations for Kz and @ in hurricane, mountainous, and coastal areas, in the special wind regions indicated in Section 16 and where local conditions require special consideration. E. The purchaser shall identify the elevation of the base above average ground levei when the structure will be placed on another structure or on a hill or escarpment. F. The purchaser shall identify the relative elevations of the guy anchors with respect to the structure base and shall identify the maximum and minimum permissible guy radii. G. The basic wind speeds provided in Section 16 correspond to an annual probability of 0.02 (SO-year recurrence interval). If the purchaser requires another probability, the basic wind speed shall be provided to the designer.

IIA/EIA-/-I-

2.3.16 A. Due to the low probability that an extreme ice load will occur simultaneously with an cmeme wind load, wind load has been reduced 25 percent when considered to occur smm.baneously with ice (quivaient to 87 percent of the basic wind speed).
B. For b&c wind speeds based on a 50-year recurrence interval (.02 annual probabi.Q),

the reduced wind load approximately corresponds to a 5-year recurrence interv~.

C. It is the responsibility of the purchaser to specify other critical wind and ice loading

combinations for locations where mote severe conditions are known to occur. 5.1.1 A. Galvanizing is the preferred method of providing corrosion control. Alternate methods of cormion control, such BS epoxy paint, chlorinated latex paint, plating, elecuogdvanizing, etc., may be used only when specified by the purchaser. B. The pudmer shall specify the requirements of additional corrosion control systems when required. ( Refer to Annex J for corrosion control options for guy anchors in direct
contact with soil.) 7.2.2

A. When standard foundations and anchors are utilized for a final design, it is the purchasers responsibility to verify by geotechnical investigation that actual site soil parameters equal or exceed normal soil parameters. If the purchaser elects to accept the normai soil foundation for construction, he accepts the responsibility and liability for the adequacy of the subsurface soil conditions.
B. It is the responsibility of the purchaser to verify that the depths of standard foundations

are adequate based on the frost penetration and/or the zone of seasonal moisture variation.
7.2.3.2 A. The geOteCh&al engineer shall be informed of the provisions of this section.

11.2 12.2

A. The purchaser shall specify the operational requirements when the minimum standard does not apply. A. The purchaser shall specify other grounding requirements for conditions where the minimum standard will not be adequate.

13.2.1 A. The purchaser shall specify requirements for climbing and working facilities, hand or _ -. . .. guardra% and climbing safety devices. 16 A. The purchaser is advised that the basic wind speeds listed in Section 16 are minimum values. Specific sites may have local extreme wind conditions that are more severethan the listed values. Topographical characteristics such as smooth terrain, bltis, ducting, mountain top exposure, and prevailing wind directions can significantly increase wind speeds. The purchaser is advised to consult local information sources such as the National Weather Service (NWS), local weather agencies, owners of existing towers at the same or nearby sites, local landowners, and consuking meteorologists.

ANNEX B: DESIGN WIND LOAD ON TYPICAL MICROWAVE ANT~NAS/RJ~FLECTOR~

This Annex COnkns data for calculating the design wind load on typical microwave amen& reflectors. Wind-loading values have been compiled from a wide variety of sources. Some data are based on wind tunnel tests, and some are based on theoretical calculations. Precise antenna geometry may vaty between manufacturers, who should be consulted for data concemiitg their products.)
mote:

Wmd force data presented in this annex for parabolic antennas (iucluding grid antennas) are described in the antenna axis system having the origin at the vertex of the reflector. The axial force PA.) acts along the axis of the antenna. The side force (Fs) acts perpendicular to the antenna axis in the phe of the antenna axis and the wind vector. Ihe twisting moment (M) acts in the plane cOn*g FA and Fs.. (See Figures B 1, B2, and B3.) For horn antennas, the origin is at the intersection of the vertical antenna axis with a plane tangent to the bottom of the boresight cylinder. The axial force FA acts parallel to the antenna boresight axis. The side force (Fs) acts perpendicular to FA in the plane 0fF~ and the wind vector. The twisting moment M acti in the plane containing FA and Fs. (See Figure B4.) For flat plate passive reflectors, the origin is at the cemroid of the plate area. The axial force FA acts along the normal to the plate. The side force (Fs) acts perpendicular to FA in the plane of FA and the wind vector. The twisting moment M acts in the plane containing FA and Fs, (See Figure BS.) In all c=es, the magnitudes of FA, Fs, and M depend on the dynamic pressure of the wind, the projected frmal area of the antenna, and the aerodynami.c characteristics of the antenna body. The aerodpdc characteristics vary with wind angle. The values of FA, Fs, and M shall be cakukted . from the following equations: FA = CA AKzGrrV2(lb) Fs=Cs AKzeV2(1b) M=CM ADKz%V2(ft-lb) Where: CA, Cs , and CM are the coefficients contained in Tables B 1 through B6 as a function of wind angle 0. Gl A D V Kz 0 = Gust response factor from 23.4 = Outside aperture area (sq ft) of parabolic reflector, grid, or horn antenna 5 Plate area (sq ft) of passive reflector = Outside diameter (ft) of paraboloid reflector, grid, or horn antenna = Width or length (ft) of passive reflector (see Figure B5) = Basic wind speed (mph) fkrn 2.3.3 = Exposure coefficient from 2.3.3 with z equal to the height of the Origin of the axis system = Wind angle (deg); see Figures Bl through B5 for positive sign conventions

(Note: The coefficients described in Tables B 1 through B6 are presented in the customary system of units. When SI units are desired, the results of the above equations may be converted using the conversion factors provided in Annex G.)

3. It is not intended that the values in this table imply an accuracy of beam width determination or SbuCtud rigidity calculation beyond known practicable values and computational procedures. For most microwave structures it is not practid to require a calculated structural rigidity of less than 114 degree twist or sway with a 50 mi/h (22.4 III/S) Basic Wind Speed. 4. For passive reflectors the allowable twist and sway values are assumed to incbrde the effects of all members contributing to the rotation of the face under wind load. For passives not elevated far above ground (approximately 5 to 20 feet (1.5 to 6 m) clearance above ground) the stmcm.re and reflecting face supporting elements are considered an integral unit. Therefore, separating the structure portion of the defiection is only meaningful when passives are mounted on conventional microwave structures. 5. The allowable sway for passive reflectors is considered to be 1.4 times the allowable twist to account for the,amount of rotation of the face about a horizontal axis through the face center and paraki to the face compared to the amount of beam rotation along the direction of the path as it deviates from the plane of the incident and reflected beam axis. 6. Linear horizontal movement of antennas and reflectors in the amount experienced for properly designed microwave antenna system support structures is not considered a problem (no significant signal degradation atttibuted to this movement). 7. For systems using a frequency of 450 MHz, the half power beam widths may be nearly 2 @ degrees for some antennas. However, structures designed for microwave relay systems will usud.ly have an inherent rigidity less than the maximum 5 degree deflection angle shown on the chart. 8. The 3 dB beam widths, 2 0 HP in column A are shown for convenient reference to mamrfacmrers published antenna information. The minimum deflection reference for this standard is the allowable total deflection aneie Q at the 10 d.B

If values for columns II and Y of the sway table and column A of the twist table are not available from the manufacturer (s) of the arnennasystem or from the user of the antenna system then values shall be obtained from Figure C2, or C3. 2. Limits of beam movement for twist or sway (treated separately in most analyses) sre the sum of the appropriate figures in columns 9 and T of the twist table and the sum of the appropriate figures in columns F and %,, of the sway table. 3. Linear horizontal movement of antennas and refiectoxs in the amount experienced for properly designed microwave antenna system support structures is not considered a problem (no significant signal degradation attributed to this movement). 4. The 3 dB beam widths, 2 9 HP in cohuun ID are shown for convenient refmen- to manufacturers standard published antenna information. The minimum deflection reference for this standard is the allowable total deflection angle 0 at the 10 dB points. 5. The values shown in this table depict angular deflections in two orthogonal planes no& to the boresight direction: vertical elevation (sway) aud horizontal azimuth (twist). No allowance has been made for initial offsets due to mount skew, installation tolerances, paths not normal to the suppon structures, etc. Special considerations will be required in those cases. 6. It is not intended that the values on this table imply an accuracy of beam width determination or ~buctural rigidity calculation beyond known practicable values and computational procedures. For most microwave structures it is not practicable to require a calculated structural rigidity of less than l/4 degree twist or sway with a 50 mi/h (22.4 m/s) Basic Wind Speed.

Should there be significant tension changes, the cause should be determined immediately and proper remedial action taken. Possible causes may be initial construction loosening, extreme wind or ice, anchor movements, base settlement, or connection slippage. 2) Tension variations at a single level are to be expected because of anchor elevation differences, construction deviations, and wind effects.

Methods For Measuring Guy Initial Tensions There are two basic methods of measuring guy initial tensions in the field: the direct method and the indirect method. A. The Dimt Method (see Figure E8) A dynamometer (load cell) with a length adjustment device, such as a come-along is attached to the guy system by &mpmg onto the guy just above the turnbuckle and onto the anchor shaft below the turnbuckle, thus making the turnbuckle redundant. . The come-along is then tightened until the original turnbuckle begins to slacken. At this point the dynamometer carries all of the guy load to the anchor, and the guy tension be read directly off the dynamometer dial.
may

One may use this method to set the correct tension by adjusting the come-along tumJ the proper tension is read on the dynamometer. lI,vo control points are marked, one above the clamping point on the guy and one on the anchor shaft, and the control length is measured. The dynamometer and come-along are then removed, and the original tu.rnbuckle is adjusted to maintain the control length previously measured. B. The Mhxt Method (see Figures ES and E9)

There are two Common techniques for the indirect measurement of guy initial tensions: the pulse or swing method (vibration) (Figure E8) and the tangent intercept or sag method (geometry) (Figure E9). 1. The Pulse Method (see Figures E8 and EiO) One sharp jerk is applied to the guy cable near its connection to the anchor causing a pdse or wave to travel up and down the cable. On the fust return of the pulse to the lower end of the guy cable the stop watch is started. A number of returns of the pulse to the anchor are then timed, and the guy tension is calculated from the following equations: TM = YLE
8.05P2

(1)

1lAWA-222-F

in which (seeFigure El@

TA = Guy tension at anchor (lb) TM = Guy tension at mid-guy (lb) W = Total weight of guy, including ins-, L = Guy chord length (ft)
L=jrn

etc. (lb)

8)

V = Vertical distance from guy attachment on tower to guy attachment at anchor(fi) H = Horizontal distance from guy attachment cmtower to guy attachment at anchor (ft> N = Number of pulses or swings counted in P secd~ P = Period of time measured for N pulses or swings (s) Instead of creating a p&e that travels up and down the guy, one may achieve the same result by causing the guy cable to swing freely fkom side to side while timing N complete swings. The formulas given above wilI aiso apply fix this approach. 2. The Tangent Intercept Method (see Figure E9) A line of sight ik established which is tangential to the guy cable near the anchor end and which intersects the tower leg a distance (tangent intercept) below the guy attachment point on the mast. Th& tangent intercept distance is either measured or estimatedand the tension is &cu.&d kom the following equation: . WCJiiTyiq
TA = HI (4)

in which
C = Distance from guy attachment on tower to the center of gravity of the weight W et> I = The tangent intercept (ft) If the weight is uniformly distributed along the guy cable, C will be approximately equal to H/2. If the weight is not uniformly distributed, the guy may be subdivided into n segmentsand the following equation may be used:
TA =

SJm
HI

in which

S = c WC,

Wi = Weight of segment i (lb)

If the intercept & dlfficdt to establish, one may use the guy slope at the =&or end with the following equation: TA = WCJl (v - Hm a) in which 01= Guy angle at the anchor (see Figure E9) Note that

ICEDESIGN CRITERIAFORCOMMUNKATION

INTRODUCTION The meteorological phenomenon of ice accumulation is very difficult t0 predict with certainty. For tower and pole structures, ice accumulation can be one of the predominant applied loads. The first task in developing ice design criteria is to determine if the proposed or existing site is susceptibleto icing. If the site has a history of ice accumulation, the fiquency, thickness, type ad duration of icing must be determined Potential sourcesof this Mxmation inch& the National Weather Service (NWS), local weather agencies, owners of existing towers at the same site or nearby sites, local landowners, and consulting meteorologists.

Judgment be exercised to detexmine if reported icing events are frequent-or rare must
ommnces. Likewise, in some geographical areaa, seasonal high winds and icing OCCUT simultaneously: For these situations, simultaneous application of maximum wind and ice loadings may be required. The effect of icing on a tower generally relates directly to the type and size of tower and to the we and thickness of icing. For example, a l/Z-inch radial ice accumulation will have more impact on a short tower with small members than a tall tower with larger members. Very dl tmers may experience large thicknesses of in-cloud icing over portions of the mast. Solki or clear glaze ice has a higher density than that of rime ice or hoarfrost. Consequently, the effects of increased dead *eight from ice accumulation will vary depending on the type of ice. Large accumulations of rad.iaI ice can dramaticaIIy increase the projected wind area of tower members and antennas.

TYPES OF ICING (1) (2) 0) There are several types of i&g which can accumuiate 011 COm.Ulum &on important to understand where and how they form. 2.1 Hoarfrost Hoarfrost is a fluffy 0~ feathery deposit of interkking ice crptd formed on objects, usua~y those of d diameter fialy exposed to the air, such as tree branches, wires, etc. I&e deposition of hoarfrost is similar to the process by which dew is formed, except that the temperature af the &osted object must be btiow freezing. It forms when air, with a dew point below kezing, is brought to saturation by cooling. Hoarfrost has densities less than 19 lb@ [3 kNjm3]. 2.2 RimeIce Rime ice is a white or m.i,ky pm& deposit of ice formed by the rapid freezing of supercooied water drops as they impinge upon an exposed object. It is denser and harder than hoarfrost, but lighter, softer, and less transparent than glaze. Rime is composed essentially of discrete ice granules and has densities ranging from 56 w 19 WfG 19 to 3 kNjm3]. Rime is often described as soft or hard. Soft rime is a white, opaque coating of fine rime deposited especially on points and eilgcs of objects. It is usually fmed in supercooled fog. On the windward side, soft rime may grow to very thick layer% long feathery cones, or needles pointing into the wind and having a structure S&.&U to hoarfrost. Hard rime is an opaque, granti maas ofi rime fanned by a dense supercooled fog. Hard rime is compact and amorphous and may build out into the wind as glazed cones or feathers. The icing of ships and shortit structures by supercooled spray usually has the characteristics of hard rime. 2.3 Glaze Ice Glaze ice is a coating of ia, generally clear aud smooth, but usually containing some air pockets. It is formed on exposed objects by the fretzing of a film of supercooled water, usually deposited by rain or drizzle. Glaze is denser, harder, and more transparent than either rime or hoarfrost. Its density may be as high as561b/ft3 C9kN/m3].

CONDITIONS OF ICE FORMATION be me of ice formed is determined by combinations of air temperature, wind speed,&oP size, and liquid water content or rainfall intensity. The icing problem, therefore, can be &Gfkd either by the meteoroIog&I conditions that produce the formation of ice or by the type of ice that is formed 3.1 Precipitation Icing This is the most Common icing me&n&m and can occur in any area subject to freezing rain or drizzle. The ice is formed when warm, moist air is forced Over a sub-freezing, denser layer of air at the ground surface. As the watm air rises and condenses, rain falls through the coider air and freezes on objects near the ground. This frozen deposit is a clear glaze type of ice. Since this kind of weather is caused by frontal activity, it usually doesnt last more than a day or two. Because it is necessary for excess water to be present for glaze to form on exposed surfaces, often the excess water may freeze into icicles or other distended shapes. In actd practice, glaze ice can be seen to form on cables and guys in a variety of shapes ranging from the classical smooth cyhndxical sheath, through crescentson the windward side and icicles hanging on the underside to large irregular protuberances spaced along the cable. In most cases, glaze ice develops on st.nmms as a fairly smooth layer on tie windward surfaces with icicles forming below horizontal members. The shape of the glaze is apparently dependent on a combination of factors, such as wind speed, variations in wind speed, the angle of the wind, the turbulence of the flow, variations in air temperature and duration of the Storm. Since most of these factors vary @om storm to storm, and even during the storm a @i.ndticai shape of equivalent weight is assumed for design purposes. 3.2 In-Cloud Icing This type of icing condition is caused by the impingement of super-cooled water dropiets of a cloud on the structure or cable. This is rime ice. It can occur in mountainous areaswhere ciouds exist above the freezing level or in a super-cooled fog at lower elevations produced by a stable air mass with a strong temperature inversion. These conditions can last for days or weeks. The total amount of in-cloud ice deposited is dependent on wind speed. Since wind speed increases with height above ground, larger amounts of ice will occur towards the top of taller towers and on the cables that support or are mounted on taller towers.

A ~0i.i investigation by a geotecfinical @n&g firm is recommended for each tower site to determine its unique soil and physical &ract&&cs, and to provide data to develop safe design p==eters, economical foundation &maths, ami installation procedures. To ensure that the EPOn furnishes useful information to the foundation designer, the geotechnical firm should be provided with the following information: a. A plot plan and site location map with tower, equipment building and other site improvements located. b.

ANNEX J: CORROSION CONTROL OPTIONS FOR GUY ANCHORS IN DIRECT CONTACT WITH SOIL 1 INTRODUCTTON WY gUY mChOfi in direct contact with soil, designedin accordance with ETA/IIA Standards,have performed We.ii without detrimental corrosion. However, depending on the required design life of the stmture and on site-specific conditions, corrosion control measures, in addition to hotAp gdvmg, may be required to prevent the premature deterioration of these types of Eu1cfior~ Hot-dip galvanized mater& have been proven m be very effective in resisting corrosion when in direct contact with soil. In a lo-year study involving 45 types of soils performed by the National B=au of Standards, only one sample had some penetration of the base steel. A 13-year test in ciab ( Oneof the most corrosive subgrade enti~nments), indicated that corrosion was effectively reduced, even thou& the zinc coating was destroyed within the first two years. One theory for this b~vh is that the alloy layer between the zinc and steel surface, formed during the hot-dip &V&g process, results in a major source of protection. Also, in some soils, a protective layer of * a zh compound fmm during the corrosion process, slowing the rate of corrosion. Despite the protective nature of hot-dip gakmixed materials, there have been reports of unacceptable adm corrosion occurring within 10 years after installation. Anchor inspectionsare W=dve to de-e if accelerated corrosion is occurring at a given site. Corrosion activity may VarY widely across a site. Anchor corrosion could occur at one or more of the anchors at a site and axid O~X at anY depth along a given anchor. Some of the site conditions which may result in accelerated corrosion are briefly described in this annex. Under these conditions, additional comsion control measures should be co&k&. I This annex is not intended to be a treatise on the subject of anchor corrosion but is provided to heip owners become aware of the potential anchor corrosion problems and the importance of anchor inspections; and to encourage owners to pursue further information from appropriate specialists for both new and existing construction. A corrosion specialist may recommend methods to curtaiI or monitor corrosion discovered at existing sites or present options to consider for proposed sites. 2 2.1 IVES OF CORROSION
Galvanic Corrosion

Galvanic anchor corrosion occurs in soil when a self-generated current exists due to the connection of dissimilar metals or due to non-uniform conditions existing along the surface of an anchor. When a dissimilar metal is electrically connected to an anchor, a difference in potential exists between the two materi&. If the dissimilar metal is also in contact with a low resistivity soil, a complete circuit will exist. Current will flow from one metal to the other due to the electrical connection and return through the soil completing the circuit. This naturally occunin g phenomenon is why current is obtained from a battery when its terminals are electrically Connected. Dissimilar metals behave in this manner because of the difference in potential each metal inherently has. Metals may be listed in order of their potential. Such a list is called a galvanic series. A galvanic series of commonly used metals and alloys is given in Table Jl. When a complete circuit exists, corrosion occurs on the metal listed higher in the galvanic series. This is the location where current exits and travels through the soil towards the metal

For example, if a large copper ground Systemin a conductive soil is directly or i&,rdy @rough guys) ekctridy connectedto a steel anchor, corrosion will occur on the anchor&cc steel is listed higher on the galvanic series than copper. The rate of corrosion wiU dependlargely on the a&uctivity of the soil and the relative locationsofthemetalsinthegalvanicstrics.Thehi9)lnthtsQil~u~~~,andthc~er apart the metals are in the gaIv&~ s&, the fas&z the &osion. Many 0thfZ f=tOrS beyond the scope of this commentary could innuence the rare of corrosion and result b =&med anchor carrosion. Galvaniccorrosionmay alsooccur~~~~rateswithouttheprrsenccafa~metal when conditions along the surface of the anchor are not uniform. Es situation may exist The when the base of the anchor is embeddedin COOCTC~~. moist concrete, being much different than the soil surrounding the expo& portion of the anchor,will have a different potential. If the surrounding soil conducthi@ is high, afdemed corrosion of the anchor moisture may occur. Backfill conditions with n~-unif~ composition, compaction, wntent, porosity, etc., may result in similar localized difkcnces in potential along the anchor. 2.2 Electrolytic Corrosion Electrolytic corrosion is very S+ to @~a& msion. The differencebeingthe current responsible for electrolytic corrosion is from an outside source as opposed to a self-generated current which is responsible for galvanic corrosion. Outside sources of current which may result in eiectiolytic ~sion inch& ckctric rail transit systems, mining operations, welding a&vi&s, mnr.hincry, or the corrosion control systems for ., pipelines or nearby stcuctur~. For electrolytic corrosion to occur, the md,hg soil must be conductiveand a CWTtnt from an outside source must enter and tit an anchor on its path to a hcation Of lower potential. At the point of entry, the anchor is generally unaffected.At the point of exit, BS with galvanic corrosion, acceleratedcorrosion may occur. 3 CORROSION POTENTIAL OF SOL The corrosion potential at a given site is a function ofmany variables:Fortunately,one of the most important variables, the conductivity of soil, may be determinedby a geotectical investigation. 3.1 Soil Conductivity The conductivity of a soil is usually deby measuringrcsistivity. Resistivity is most often measuredin units of ohm-centimeter (&m+m). 7&e lower the resistivity, the higher the conductivity. For example,salt water, a very mosive environment,has a resistivity of approximately 25 ohm-cm. Cleandry sand,which is usually a non-corrosive environment, may havea resistivi~ of more that 1,000,000ohm-cm. A soil with aresistivity below 2,000 Ohm-cm is generally consideredto be highly carrosive.

3.2

Other Factors soil resisfivity may vary seasonablyand is gcnemlly a function of mine!ralcomposition, moisture content and the concentrationof dissolvedsalts. Clays and high moisture content soils generally have lower resistitiq &an sandsor low moisture contentsoils. However, a

TemperatureE&O affects resistivity values. The resistivity of a soil may @ me-e vefy high if measured under nearfreezingconditions,yet bevery aggressive under wanner wnditio~.

Due to the my possible factors i~~volved, it may not always be possible to &mm&e the controlling factor when accelerated corrosion occurs. 3.3 GeotechnicalInvestigations When a geotechnicalinvestigation is performed,asa minimum, thelocal soil resistivi~ and the type and wncentration of dissolved saltsshould be established.With this information, together with a description of all existing and/or proposed construction, a corrosion spm*t shdi beableto recommendvariouscorrosioncontrol measures beconsider& to Additional site testingmay berequired by thecorrosionspecialistin order to properlydesign ad implement a Corrosioncontrol system. 4 OPTIONS FOR CORROSION CONTROL None of the following options for wrrosion wntrol eliminate the needfor proper monitoring and maintenance over the life of the structure.

4.1

Site Modifications

Improving drainageor placing an impermeablelayer of soil at an anchor location may be beneficial in reducing the rate of corrosion. Under some situations it may be possible to ba&ill afouIlcl sn anchor with a high resistivity soil. Adding chemicals to neutralize existing corrosive soils or to mitigate the actions of micro-organisms may also be sn alternative. Caremust be taken to ensurethat the required structural capacity of an anchor s~ppt is maintained during excavationsand to avoid contaminating the local soil with toxic substances. Relocating sn anchormay alsobe a reasonablealtemative if the causeor possibility of accelerated wrrosion at a site is known to be a localized, isolated condition. If coppergroundrods serveasgrounding for ananchor,replacingthemwith galvanizedsteel rods would reduce galvanic corrosion by el .* g the presenceof a dissimilar metal. Special attention should be paid to the ground lead and its connectionto a galvanizedrod, particularly when the connectionis placed below grade. Isolation Of anchors from the structure using guy insulators may help to reduce the transmission of stray currents from outside sourcesand therefore minim& ekctrolytic corrosion. Galvanic corrosion due to the presence of copper ground rods would be eliminated if the ground wires were connectedon the tower side of the isolation point. Isolation may also increasethe efficiency of sacrificial anodesdescribedin 4.4. Bonding the anchorsto adjacentcathodicallyprotectedpipeliuesor structures may protect the anchorsss opposedto subjectingthem to possible ekcsolytic corrosion. This should only be donein accordancewith recommendations from a corrosion specialist.

Cathodic Protection

For both galvanic and electrolytic corrosion,corrosion occurswhen current fi~ws from the anchor into the surrounding soil. me objective of cathodic protection is to reversethe dir&on of current, resulting in current flowing to the anchorinsteadof away from it, thus preventing corrosion of the anchor.This may be accomplished installing galvanicanodes by or by ~tmhing an impressedcurrent.
