CASE STUDY

Rapid Transmission Restoration: Utility Avoids Delays, High Costs & Outages

The Situation

Steel Rapid Transmission CS

In October 2024, a large commercial vehicle struck a steel lattice transmission tower, severely damaging two load-bearing legs, diagonal braces, gusset plates, and anchor bolts, compromising the tower’s structural integrity.

The risks:

  • Tower instability from buckled legs
  • Damaged connections and misalignment
  • Potential clearance and conductor tension issues

The challenge:

  • Full replacement would cost $1M+ and take over a year
  • Permitting and logistics added delays
  • Outage was not an option—rerouting power would be costly
  • Immediate action was needed to prevent further failure
