“…One such simplification is to regard transmission towers as space frame structures, which has enabled designers and researchers to simplify the bolted connections as pin/hinge joints [21,22], due to its time saving and relatively reliable features.…”

Lattice Transmission Towers (LTT) and the associated transmission line systems are important infrastructure in modern society. Due to the complicated load conditions and the nonlinear interaction among the large number of structural components, accurate structural analysis of the LTT systems has been a challenging topic for many years. Still today there are some gaps between research and industrial practice. This paper presents a summary of research outcomes from current literature. Recent developments in structural modelling and failure prediction technology are reviewed in terms of connection joints, individual members and structural systems subjected to static and dynamic loads. The advantages and disadvantages of different approaches have been compared. Finally, the knowledge gaps, associated challenges and possible research directions are highlighted.

“…From extensive studies [1][2][3][4][5] of the X-bracing system with a rigid connection at mid-span the effective length factor for the X-bracing system with a rigid connection at mid-span can be provided with confidence (diagonals can be either simply or rigidly attached at their ends). The closed-form solutions of X-bracing systems with a discontinuous diagonal are discussed in [6][7][8].…”

“…For an X-bracing system with a rigid connection at midspan, extensive studies (i.e., DeWolf and Pelliccione [1]; ElTayem and Goel [2]; Kitipornchai and Finch [3]; Picard and Beaulieu [4]; Stoman [5,6]; Wang and Boresi [7]) have been conducted. They provide the effective length factor for the X-bracing system with a rigid connection at mid-span.…”
