Nuclear Soil Compaction Test for Transmission Tower Foundations According to SEC Standards

Leave a Comment / Civil Articles / OHTL DESIGN

Introduction In power transmission and substation projects, the stability and reliability of tower foundations are crucial for long-term structural performance. One of the most important factors influencing this stability is soil compaction. Properly compacted soil increases the bearing capacity, minimizes settlement, and ensures that transmission towers remain stable even under heavy wind and dynamic loading

Protective Coating Requirements for OHTL Foundations as per SEC Standards

Leave a Comment / Civil Articles / OHTL DESIGN

Introduction Overhead Transmission Line (OHTL) foundations are critical components in the electrical power transmission infrastructure. They support transmission towers and transfer loads to the ground. Due to exposure to harsh environmental conditions, such as moisture, chlorides, sulfates, and aggressive soils, the Saudi Electricity Company (SEC) mandates robust protective coating systems to ensure durability and corrosion
