How are transmission towers built and installed?

2025-08-17

The construction of a transmission tower is a multi-stage process that requires meticulous planning, specialized tools, and a highly skilled crew. The general process includes:

  1. Foundation Work: First, the site is prepared, and the tower's foundation is laid. This typically involves excavating the ground and pouring a concrete foundation to provide a stable base. Our foundation tools and accessories are used to ensure the anchor bolts and stubs are set with precise accuracy.

  2. Tower Assembly: The pre-fabricated tower sections are delivered to the site. They are then assembled on the ground or hoisted in sections by cranes. Our hoisting and lifting equipment, including winches and gin poles, are essential for safely raising and assembling these heavy steel structures.

  3.

Our specialized overhead transmission line equipment, including hydraulic pullers and OHTLstringingequipment.com/Hydraulic-Conductor-Tensioners.html target='_blank'>Tensioners, are used to string the heavy conductor cables from tower to tower with the exact tension and sag required for the line to operate safely and efficiently.

  4. Final Touches: After stringing, accessories like vibration dampers and spacers are installed, and the site is cleaned and restored to its original condition.

By offering a one-stop supply for all these phases—from foundation work to final stringing—Ningbo Changshi ensures our clients have the high-quality tools they need to complete their projects safely and on schedule.
