TSE TELECOM is one of the applications of the
TSE Tower Structural Engineering family of
programs. It is a powerful and comprehensive
Microsoft Windows program for the analysis
and design of steel telecommunication
structures, such as self-supporting towers and
guyed masts according to ANSI/TIA-222-G
standard.
An extensive library of panel types allow for
quick creation of the structure through
parametric tools. The loads generator wizard
is a very powerful tool for the automatic load
generation on the tower. The user-interface
features, the powerful analysis engine, the
extensive design checks and the advanced
visualization tools make modelling of complex
towers a painless process.
TSE TELECOM is the result of more than 30
years of research and development based
on our 3D structural analysis technologies.

COMPREHENSIVE STRUCTURE MODELING
TSE TELECOM includes powerful and
productive features for generating any type
of latticed structure model. Engineers can
now model faster than ever using the
parametric wizard generator and Panel
libraries. Panels can be defined by the user
through Panel Editor, or selected from a
standard panel library. Standard libraries
also include materials and sections.

ADVANCED ANALYSIS
STRUCTURAL MODELING, ANALYSIS AND DESIGN OF STEEL TELECOMMUNICATION TOWERS AND GUYED MASTS
TSE TELECOM includes a wide range of
advanced analysis methods such as linear,
non-linear, P-Delta, buckling, natural
frequencies, seismic and dynamic analysis.
Wind and ice loads can be computed
automatically in accordance with ANSI/TIA-
222-G loading code. The load generator
wizard allows the user to easily create basic
loads, loads and load combinations.

MEMBERS DESIGN
Member capacities may be checked
against the American design standard
ANSI/TIA-222-G. Extensive types of checks
performed by the program include
slenderness, buckling, connection strength,
anchor rod strength, tensile and
compression strengths. The user can
optionally checks bending, shear and
torsion strengths. TSE TELECOM is a powerful
solution to do advanced design of
telecommunication towers.
