A LATTICE TOWER AND ITS FABRICATION UTILIZING THE COMPOSITE WRAPING METHOD

摘要

A lattice type multipurpose tower comprising composite lightweight materials is designed to substitute the amount of steel utilized and thereby correspondingly reduces the overall weight of the structure. The light weight fiber reinforced lattice multipurpose tower is one - fourth by weight as compared with the conventional steel lattice multipurpose tower. The invention utilizes an apparatus for effectively wrapping the manufactured filament across the column members of the lattice tower for the manufacture of the light weight tower. The method also utilizes the filament winding process for assembling the said composite segments together and thus avoids human intervention, unnecessary fasteners and patch works on the said lattice type multipurpose tower.
