 Buying a Telecommunication Tower
Tower is a Capital expenditure with operational life of several decades. Hence
buying a tower needs careful determination of requirements or specifications.
Important specification include
1. Survival wind Speed.
2. Physical size, Type, Number and levels of Antennas.
3. Twist & Sway requirements.
While offering a product, almost all bidders, uniformly say “Complied” against all
the required specifications including above i.e. wind speed, antenna loading etc.
While compliance for some of the specifications is easily confirmable, the
requirement of wind speed and antenna loading cannot be checked without looking
into detailed design calculations. Hence experienced and shrewd buyers always
insist on design calculations, before finalization of purchase contract.
Unfortunately these two parameters are main parameters, which determine
suitability of tower and are responsible for cost of tower also.
Factors like size of antennas, type of antenna, level of antenna have considerable
effect on the required strength (read cost) of tower.
Placing antenna at mid height of tower will reduce the loading on tower by 50%. On
the other hand, if the wind speed is double, the forces acting on tower are 4
times.
Buying a communication tower is not the same as buying a bunch of steel angle,
pipes, plates etc. Tower is matched set of its various components.
Each component of this set has a vital role to play in the strength of WHOLE
tower, for example, if One small segment of the leg is slightly weaker than
required, that the entire tower’s strength will be determined by this small
component, because tower will fail from this point only when full loading occurs.
Moreover, putting extra strength at any non-required point is wastage of
materials, because strength of the tower is determined by weakest link in the
structure only. Hence it becomes imperative that all members should be capable of
resisting the applied loads to the same extent uniformly.
To ensure that all these things have been considered properly, availability of design
competency with the tower supplier is the most desirable eligibility criterion.
Design competency in supplier is a must for copying also. For example, if bolt grade
changes, the joints have to be redesigned. If any member is replaced due to non
availability of any section then also detailing of all adjoining members has to be
changed.

Approx.95% of price paid by buyer for tower, consists of materials cost. In

today’s competitive world, all bidders work on small margins. Hence material cost
is the all encompassing component of total cost. Anybody can reduce the cost by
reducing the materials. That reduction is normally not without compromising on
the performance or strength. The buyer has no way to recognize this compromise
without looking into detailed calculations and verify that the product is as per
 Poly-Qual (India) Pvt.Ltd.

Line of Sight Surveys

To get communication between 2 points, it is necessary that
that the height of the tower be adequate at both ends.
Height of tower required at each end is determined by
considering
* Earth Curvature.
* Height of Fresnel Zone for frequency of Communication.
* Heights of man made obstructions on way.
* Degree of reliability required with the proposed
Above determination involves map study, physical survey of
obstructions & elaborate calculations. Poly Qual carries out
LOS surveys between any defined points. Normally money
spent in survey is more than compensated in savings in
tower heights & reliable communications.

Soil Investigations

It is necessary that the foundation design be done

according to the soil conditions available at site. Poly Qual
determines the strength of the soil, height of the water
table and other desired properties of the soil for safe &
economic design of the foundation.

The process involves transport of drilling equipment to

site , drilling boreholes at the site and laboratory analysis
of disturbed & undisturbed samples collected from site
and according to the result final soil test report is made.

Poly-Qual’s Commitment To Quality

• Poly-Qual is a ISO 9000-2001 company and has a well

documented quality manual.
• Our mission statement includes “.. to build towers, which
excel or match the best in world ......... at a right cost to the
customer “
● Poly-Qual controls the quality of their towers at each
stage of manufacture i.e.
a)  Raw material stages – Inspection is done on arrival of
raw material for visual surface defects like slivers,
blowholes , pit tings & hairlines cracks etc. Before
commencing fabrication, various properties which are tested
these include tensile strength, bending strength of steel.
Chemical analysis is done to determine various micro
components
b) During processing stages – all the dimensions of various
components are first tested in virtual space by 3D
modeling. Then each component is checked against the
physical dimensions generated by computer model. Welded
component are subjected to DP test for checking quality of
welding. Random sampling of members is done to measure
physical distances between holes and total length.
c) On finished stage.- Poly-Qual towers are hot dip galvanized
after fabrication to make sure that there are no rust
starting points. In hot dip galvanizing, each section of the
tower is totally immersed in molten zinc allowing every
square mm of the tower, inside and out, to be completely
covered. Hot dip galvanizing protects all points of welding
and construction against rust and corrosion.
Thickness of coating is routinely checked by non
destructive tests. Some samples are subjected to
destructive tests also to ensure.
i)  Proper thickness of coating.
ii)  Proper adhesion of coating.
iii)  Proper quality of zinc used.
d) Pre-dispatch Stage – All members are checked for erection
codes marked on them , Checking is done for punched
marking as well as permanent ink marking . All critical
subassemblies are subject to proof of prototype
assembly.
No of pieces/packing & member of packing are checked with
the packing list to ensure the completeness of material being
dispatched.
