Masts and Towers

PZ&W engineers are highly experienced in the design and analysis of guyed masts, towers and columns for static, quasi-static and dynamic loads in steel, aluminium and timber covering:

• New design
• Design appraisals
• Structural Appraisals
• Design for strengthening
• Design for remedial works

We have worked for Clients across the Telecommunications industry designing small columns and towers for the deployment of 2G/3G/4G/5G mobile networks. We undertake the analysis of such structures to assess their capability to support additional antennas and design strengthening schemes if necessary, to enable owners to maximise the potential of their structures.

In the Broadcast industry we are experienced in the design and analysis of masts and towers to support TV, FM, DAB and HF/Shortwave wire antennas as well as MF antennas with their added complications of base and guy insulators.

PZ&W works extensively alongside Clients in the Defence industry on masts and towers used support a wide range of communications and radar antennas, often in challenging environments.
