Abstract: 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.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: Reinforcing bars include load transfer connectors. A link plate includes openings that mate with the load transfer connectors to overlie the splice between reinforcing bars being spliced. A cover plate may be fastened over the link plate.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: 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.
