Abstract

The analysis was done by modeling using MS Tower software, by comparing the stress ratio of the existing conditions with the addition of silicon rubber. Load combinations simulated with conditions; a) Normal conditions;b)Variation of two broken lead wires; and c) normal combination with wind. The results modeling on MS tower, The addition of silicon rubber obtained an increase in the stress ratio on the tower structure by 0.035 compared to before the addition (existing conditions). The greatest stress ratio is obtained when normal load conditions are combined with wind. At a wind speed of 10 mph the tower condition is safe because it is still far from the permit voltage limit. Furthermore, when the wind speed is 15 mph, the voltage ratio that occurs begins to approach the value of 1 (almost close to the permit voltage). While at a wind load of 20 mph, an indication of failure on the tower begins, which is shown from the results of the analysis having a voltage ratio> 1. Based on these results, the addition of silicon rubber can be carried out with wind conditions smaller than 20 mph.
