Creative Self Supporting Broadcast Tower

Creative Broascast towers caters for heights up to 300m, constructed using a selection of tubular or angular legs. This provides the flexibility of global manufacture to facilitate the local sourcing of materials.

DESCRIPTION

The rapidly growing and increasingly competitive Telecommunications, Broadcasting and wireless Communication Industries requite fast, flexible and cost efficient infrastructure project implementations. CREATIVE can meet those demands allow Operators to gain revenues early on and reduced internal cost overheads.

CREATIVE ENGINEERING & COMMUNICATIONS PTE LTD addresses these market demands by Introducing standardized  Broadcast  tower structures , thereby guaranteeing short design phases. This approach consequently ensures minimum lead times from the initial order to the actual of project implementations

Type of Standard Antenna Supporting
3 or 4 legged Broadcast Tower constructed either from Angles or Pipes using Mild steel and High Tensile materials for Main legs and Tower members

Design Wind Speed: 120- 250km/hr
Custom design to Client requirement

Design Criteria Standard
The design criteria are based on an extensive research on Broadcast antenna supporting structures fulfilling the majority of technical specifications and requirements of Broadcast antenna applications

International Design Standards and Codes such as (BS 8100,EIA/TIA -222G) are used.

Antenna Design Loading
Custom design to Client requirement which normally are Top mounted from 16 to 64 Panel UHF antenna including side mounted FM antenna

Final Materials Finishes
Hot dipped Galvanised to BS729 or ASTM 123 standards

Bolts and Nuts
All the connections in the field shall be made with galvanized Grade 8.8 steel bolts, each fitted with one spring washer.
ACCESSORIES

Ladder
Generally the ladders are built at centre of tower or corner of tower.

Safety Climb
With new OH&S standards, where practical, riggers now have to be attached at all times. Creative stock a full range of fall arrest systems. The safety device incorporates a steel cable, which is installed on the climbing structure. Riggers equipped with a harness and with sliding sleeve ascend the structure while constantly attached to the cable.

Feeder Brackets
Towers generally have feeder brackets which secure the cables running up to the equipment on the structure. Depending on the number of cables that need to be run another set of feeder brackets can be added to another leg or even on the outside of the structure.

Cable Tray
Cable trays have a similar purpose to feeder brackets. A cable tray can be run vertically the whole way up the structure; however it is more commonly used to support and secure cables from the lower part of the structure horizontally to the equipment shelter.

Lightning Protection
A lightning finial is used at the top of the structure which under normally conditions would be struck by a lightning hit instead of equipment fitted to structure.

Earthing
Our standard earthing kit comprises of a galvanised steel 3m strap attached to the structure which is connected to a 1m stake in the ground.

Platforms
Platforms can be supplied are:

  • Work Platforms
  • Rest Platforms
  • Lookout Platforms

 

Antenna mounts
Antenna mounts can be supplied for:

  • Microwave antennas
  • Broadcast Antenna
  • GSM mobile antennas
  • Small miscellaneous antennas

We can also design and fabricate custom mounts to suit your requirements.

Aircraft Warning Lights
Where required, Creative structures can be fitted with aircraft warning lights to comply with all relevant airport control authority requirements. These include:

  • Single & Twin Lights – led Low Intensity
  • Beacon Lights – Led Medium Intensity
  • Strobe Lights – Led High Intensity
  • Photo Cells
  • Power Cables

 

Anti Climb
An anti climb device is a barrier around the base of the structure that fends off the general public from climbing up the structure.
