This paper addresses the structural challenges faced by the wireless communication industry in strengthening existing telecommunication towers, particularly in the context of increased data transmission demands and seismic resilience. Rimmele, PE, SE December 2016 The wireless communications industry has experienced exponential growth in recent years. Not only is the number of customers increasing, but the amount of. However, the host structure should be checked for the additional loads brought in by the rooftop telecommunication towers. In the present study, seismic analysis of a low rise commercial building with towers of height 15m, 15m by varying position of towers is performed with SAP2000 software., an Arizona Corporation, has successfully completed the strengthening of a cell phone tower using a patent-pending system that utilizes Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) products.
