A 3-Leg Angle Steel Tower is a lattice structure fabricated from hot-rolled steel angle sections (L-profiles), forming a triangular base for stability. Designed for heights of 30–80m, it balances low material costs, simple assembly, and resilience in moderate wind/ice zones.
Parameter | Specification |
---|---|
Typical Height | 30m / 50m / 80m |
Base Width | 3–6m (triangular) |
Leg Section | Equal-angle steel (L100×100×10mm to L150×150×12mm) |
Bracing | Single/double-angle X or K-type |
Weight (50m) | 5–8 tons |
Wind Rating | 150 km/h (operational), 180 km/h (survival) |
Payload Capacity | 1,200–2,500 kg (antennas + microwave + RRUs) |
Foundation Type |
Isolated concrete footings (2.5m×2.5m×3m deep) |
Design Features
Material Efficiency:
Lower cost vs. tubular steel (20–30% savings)
Simple bolted connections (M20–M30 ASTM A325 bolts)
Fabrication:
Pre-punched holes for field assembly
Hot-dip galvanized (85μm zinc per ISO 1461)
Aspect | Advantage |
---|---|
Stability | Inherent resistance to torsion |
Foundation Loads | Concentrated at three points (simpler footings) |
Terrain Adapt. | Tolerates 1.5m elevation difference between legs |
X-Bracing: Standard for heights <60m
K-Bracing: For taller/heavier payloads (reduces unsupported length)
Portal Bracing: At base/platform levels for rigidity

Microwave | 2× 0.6m dishes | Side brackets (LoS clear) |
RRUs | 3–6 units | Mid-platform trays |
Fiber Tray | 200m capacity | Vertical leg conduit |
Factor | Angle Steel 3-Leg | Tubular 3-Leg |
---|---|---|
Material Cost | 25% lower | Higher (seamless tubes) |
Assembly Speed | 30% faster (pre-punched holes) | Slower (welding/alignment) |
Wind Resistance | Moderate (150 km/h) | High (180 km/h) |
Max Height | 80m | 100m+ |
