    Design of Transmission Lines, Structures, and FoundationsFebruary 25March 1, 2013 in Lake Buena Vista, Florida

    November 1115, 2013 in Madison, Wisconsin

    Learn How to Design NewTransmission Facilities and

    Upgrade Existing OnesA comprehensive design guideAt this technical course you will learn thelatest criteria and practical techniques forthe design of transmission lines, structures,and their foundations. You will studyvarious types of supporting structures,including wood, concrete, and tubularand latticed steel. You will also learn aboutconductor design and behavior undervarious operating temperatures and weatherconditions. You will examine concepts forassessing and upgrading the capability of

    existing transmission lines. This coursedoes not include training in how to use thePLS-CADD computer program.

    Transmission capacity in short supplyWind farms and deregulation havechanged the way the electric grid is beingused. Power transfers have increasedtransmission flows and taxed the capacityof existing lines. In addition, loads havegrown substantially over the last decadewhile few new transmission lines were built.These factors have produced a shortage oftransmission capacity in many areas of the

    UnitedStates.

    More capacity neededNew transmission lines will need to bebuilt to meet the requirements of growingloads and operation under changingcompetitive markets. Where right-of-way isat a premium and new lines cannot be built,existing lines will need to be upgraded tomeet growing needs.

    Learn transmission design principlesConstruction of new lines and upgradingof existing ones will require comprehensive

    knowledge of transmission line conductors,structures, and foundations. This coursewill give you the knowledge you need toeffectively design new lines and modifyexisting ones to meet the future needs of theelectric transmission system.

    Bring Your Own LaptopComputer

    Classroom exercises in transmission linedesign and foundation design will becomputer-based.Forthispurpose,weask that students bring their own laptopcomputers. See computer hardware andsoftware requirements below. If you preferto rent a computer, please indicate thatchoice on the enrollment form. ContactProgram Director John Raksany([email protected];800-462-0876) if you have questions.

    Not a Computer SoftwareTraining Course

    We want to emphasize that this first courseis not intended to give you advancedtraining on how to use the PLS-CADDtransmission line design software. Thecompanion course, ComputerizedTransmission Line Design: PLS-CADDHands-On Training, will do that. This first

    course gives you a thorough review of allthe major civil and mechanical engineeringconcepts and methods used in the designof transmission lines and foundations. Theinstructor introduces you to the classicalanalytical design methods and developsthe force and moment equations usingtraditional lecture and Q & A techniques.He then uses PLS-CADD software toillustrate the concepts and design examplepresented in this course.

    Benefit from AdvancedComputer Technology

    Advanced software aids transmissiondesign processAdvanced computer programs are availableto aid the transmission design engineerin the structural and geometric design ofelectric power lines. Computer softwarealso makes it possible to more easilyproduce related construction documentssuch as plan-and-profile drawings andmaterial lists.

    Software not always used to full potentialWhile computer tools are available togreatly increase the design engineers

    productivity and work quality, they areoften not used to their full potential. Onereason is a lack of training or understandingof advanced survey techniques, properdesign criteria, line behavior, structuralanalysis, and drafting. A second reasonis an ineffective integration of these newdesign tools.

    Learn how to use integrated softwareAt this course you will have hands-on training on how to use advancedtransmission design software thathas integrated the various surveying,

    engineering, drafting, and materialmanagement functions. Your training willhelp you become proficient at using thisadvanced software and help you be moreproductive when using it in your work.

    Learn How to Use PLS-CADDThrough Computer Exercises

    The purpose of this course is to teachyou how to use the PLS-CADD computerprogram. The course emphasizes hands-oncomputer modeling. Your instructor will

    first explain a basic transmission designconcept and then demonstrate how toimplement that design principle using thePLS-CADD software. Students will thenexecute the same design principles on theirown computers. Numerous case studies willprovide a range of real-life examples.
