It is the carrier's responsibility to ensure compliance to the structural <br /> limitations of the existing and/or proposed antenna mounts. TEP did not analyze antennas <br /> supporting mounts as part of this structural analysis report. <br /> This analysis may be affected if any assumptions are not valid or have been made in error. Tower <br /> Engineering Professionals should be notified to determine the effect on the structural integrity of the <br /> tower. <br /> 4)ANALYSIS RESULTS <br /> Table 5-Section Capacity(Summary) <br /> Section Elevation(ft) ComponentSize Critical P(Ib) Peiwv,(Ib) % Pass/ <br /> No. Type Element Capacity Fail <br /> L1 150.083-119.667 Pole [ TP36.21x30.125x0.188 1 1 s9114.08 r 1178140.00 24.4 I Pass I <br /> L2 119.667-92.25 r- Pole rTP41.314x34.751x0.375 I 2 r-17694.20 3453250.00 23.6 Pass I <br /> L3 92.25-45.6666 = Pole TP49.873x39.348x0.5 I 3 -38734.20 r 5681010.00 35.8 I Pass <br /> L4 45.6666-0 Pole [ TP58x47.441x0.625 r 4 -66751.90 8498710.00 39.0 1 Pass l <br /> — i P Summary I. <br /> Pole(L4) 39.0 Pass <br /> Rating= 39.0 [Pass <br /> tnxTower Report-version 7.0.5.1 <br />
