APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR REINFORCING TELECOMMUNICATIONS TOWERS
A reinforcing apparatus for a telecommunications tower having a foundation at least partially embedded in the ground includes: a plurality of reinforcing bars at least partially embedded in the foundation; a transition member extending outward from the foundation; a joint connector connecting the plurality of reinforcing bars to a first end of the transition member; and an anchor attached to a second end of the transition member. The anchor is embedded in the ground. Methods of reinforcing a telecommunications tower are also described.
A securement system for a guy wire, the securement system including an anchor assembly including a guy wire coupler and a securement member extending axially outward from the guy wire coupler; the securement member defining an anchor axis, a securing assembly including at least one projection extending outward relative to the shaft; and a block receiving at least the securing assembly therein, the block having an outer surface, wherein the guy wire coupler protrudes from the outer surface of the block; and a base pad extending laterally outward from the block to define at least one channel adjacent to at least one side of the block.
A stealth pole includes a plurality of canister sections, each of the plurality of canister sections including a spine, a first splice plate located on a first end of the spine, a second splice plate located on a second end of the spine, and a canister cover that covers the spine, the first splice plate and the second splice plate. A method for reinforcing the stealth pole includes removing the canister cover from at least one of the plurality of canister sections; attaching a plurality of stiffener members to the first splice plate and the second splice plate; and applying tension, compression or a combination thereof to the plurality of stiffener members. The plurality of stiffener members reinforce the spine of the canister section. A reinforced stealth pole is also described.

A method includes rendering, by a user interface of a computing device, a plurality of antenna mount options. The method includes receiving a selection of an antenna mount option. The method includes generating a geometry of a tower and the antenna mount option including a relative position of each of a plurality of tower components based on a load bearing capacity of the tower and the antenna mount option. The method includes rendering the generated geometry. The method includes generating, using the geometry and the load bearing capacity, an input file for a modeling program. The method includes importing the input file to the modeling program and running the modeling program, wherein the modeling program performs a structural analysis of the tower and the antenna mount option. The method includes rendering a result of the structural analysis including a stress and strain of the tower and the antenna mount option.

DIRECT-ANCHORAGE TERMINATION FOR POLE REINFORCEMENT
A device for reinforcing a pole (100) supported by a foundation (110) at a base (109) of the pole includes: at least one reinforcing bar (102) including a first side proximate to and directly attached to the pole (100) and a second side distal to and facing away from the pole (100); at least one anchor bracket (105) directly attached to the second side of the at least one reinforcing bar (102); an anchor (104) secured to the at least one anchor bracket (105) and secured to the foundation (110); and a plurality of pole anchors (111) that directly secure the pole (100) to the foundation (110). The pole anchors (111) are separate from the anchor (104) that secures the at least one anchor bracket (105) to the foundation (110), and the pole anchors (111) do not interact with the at least one anchor bracket (105).
An anchor bracket is secured to monopole reinforcing bars. The anchor bracket optionally includes a stiffener plate attached to the reinforcement plate. The stiffener plate is also attached to a hollow tube. An anchor passes through the tube of the anchor bracket and into the foundation of the monopole being reinforced.
