Abstract
This paper presents results from a research project carried out at the University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Canada, in collaboration with the National Technical University of Athens, Greece, which examines the potential of manufacturing fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) lattice tower segments using the filament winding process. Both theoretical and experimental work has been carried on a tower 8534mm long segment that consists of four identical parts 2134mm long each, fabricated and tested under static and dynamic loading conditions. It has been found that the experimental results correlate well with theoretical findings from FEM analyses. The dynamic properties of the tower segment were also verified through a single degree-of-freedom analytical model.
