Valmont's design capability in Transmission poles and substations
Unique Advantages to support export projects
• Solid international business experience• Strong design & engineering teams with working
knowledge of international design code• International steel suppliers• One quality assurance program for the global
manufacturing facilities• Common quality control procedures based on
international norms• Specialized international team • Logistics coordination
Coil steel Plasma cutting
CNC Drilling machine Break Press
Highmast manufacturing plants
Submerged Arc Seam Welders
Galvanized finish with optional powder coating or liquid paint
Quality control
• Material• Dimensions• Welding– Ultrasonic insepctions & Magnetic Particle• Galvanizing
ISO Certification for every plant
• ISO 9001 quality system• Valmont USA Manufacturing Specifications• Manufacturing & Inspection Norms based on ASTM• AWS certified welders and inspectors
Steel Pole Advantages
• Less right-of-way• Better appearance• Less components, fast installation• Better reliability under extreme conditions• Flexibility in design• Reliable performance and long service life
Less Right-of-way
• Smaller foundation takes less land• Efficiently placed along highways, roads, rail tracks • Can be installed at locations with very limited space
Better Appearance
• Trend of city beautification– Remove “visual” pollution– Need structure compatible with environment– Bulky clutter lattice tower visually unpleasant
• 85% public prefer poles over lattice towers
Better Reliability under Extreme Condition
• Steel monopoles are more flexible than lattice towers, concrete or wood pole under heavy loads
• In broken conductor case, bigger deflection of the steel pole reduces tension in intact span and induces smaller bending moment at base
• Round or multi-side profile induces less wind load
• In past cases where lattice towers and wood poles failed in hurricane and tornado, no steel poles were damaged
Flexibility in Design• Various structure configuration – monopoles and frames• Different voltages and circuits on same pole• Distribution under-built• Multiple circuits in different orientation• Adding lines for telephone, cable TV
Steel poles shapes
• Configuration - single pole, H-frame, Y-frame, X-frame, 3-pole structure
Steel poles connections available between sections• Sections connections – slip joints, flange joints, butt
welded joints
Steel pole foundations options
• Foundation types – concrete foundations with anchor bolts, direct embedded, caisson foundations
Steel poles finishes
• Surface protection – galvanizing, weathering steel, powder coating over galvanizing
