July 20, 2021 <br /> 14.5 ft. Platform Mount Modification CCI BU No. 826263 <br /> Project Number 92189.006.01, Order 565138, Revision 0 Page 4 <br /> A tool internally developed by B+T Group, was used to calculate wind loading on all appurtenances, <br /> dishes and mount members for various loading cases. Selected output from the analysis is included in <br /> Appendix B "Software Input Calculations". <br /> This analysis was performed in accordance with Crown Castle's ENG-SOW-10208 Tower Mount <br /> Analysis (Revision D). In addition, this analysis is in accordance with AT&T's Mount Technical Directive <br /> —R15. <br /> Manufacturer's drawing were used to create the model. <br /> 3.2)Assumptions <br /> 1. The antenna mounting system was properly fabricated, installed and maintained in good condition <br /> in accordance with its original design, TIA Standards, and/or manufacturer's specifications. <br /> 2. The configuration of antennas, mounts, and other appurtenances are as specified in Table-1. <br /> 3. All member connections are assumed to have been designed to meet or exceed the load carrying <br /> capacity of the connected members unless otherwise specified in this report. <br /> 4. Mount areas and weights are determined from field measurements, standard material properties, <br /> and/or manufacturer product data. <br /> The following assumptions have been included in the analysis of the mount: <br /> Component Section Length Note <br /> Mount Pipe 2" Std. Pipe 10'-0" In All Position <br /> Raycap Pipe 2" Std. Pipe 4'-0" - <br /> Raycap Pipe 2" Std. Pipe 5'-0" - <br /> 5. Serviceability with respect to antenna twist, tilt, roll or lateral translation is not checked and is left to <br /> the carrier or tower owner to ensure conformance. <br /> 6. All prior structural modifications, if any are assumed to be correctly installed and fully effective. <br /> 7. The analysis will be required to be revised if the existing conditions in the field differ from those <br /> shown in the above-referenced documents or assumed in this analysis. No allowance was made for <br /> any damaged, missing, or rusted members. <br /> 8. The following material grades were assumed (Unless Noted Otherwise): <br /> (a) Connection Bolts : ASTM A325 <br /> (b) Steel Pipe : ASTM A53 (GR. 35) <br /> (c) HSS (Round) : ASTM 500 (GR. B-42) <br /> (d) HSS (Rectangular) : ASTM 500 (GR. B-46) <br /> (e) Channel :ASTM A36 (GR. 36) <br /> (f) Steel Solid Rod :ASTM A36 (GR. 36) <br /> (g) Steel Plate : ASTM A36 (GR. 36) <br /> (h) Steel Angle : ASTM A36 (GR. 36) <br /> (i) UNISTRUT : ASTM A570 (GR. 33) <br /> This analysis may be affected if any assumptions are not valid or have been made in error. B+T <br /> Group should be notified to determine the effect on the structural integrity of the antenna mounting <br /> system. <br />
