15 Rotating & Supervising NSARC HF Operators 15
16 Sliding Up & Bolting NSARC HF Operators 16
17 Laying out Cables! Coax! Rotor NSARC HF Operators 17
18 Installing Cables Outside! Cables bundled and supported along struts! Cable supported on messenger guy wire between buildings NSARC HF Operators 18
19 Cable Entrance Room! Cables terminated with lightning surge protectors in equipment room on roof! Note copper grounding plates NSARC HF Operators 19
20 Installing Cables Inside! Cable supported on cable trays and in conduits inside ceiling and between floors NSARC HF Operators 20
21 Connecting to Antenna NSARC HF Operators 21
22 Finished. NSARC HF Operators 22
23 The Storm! Storm on 15 Dec 2007! Installation calculated to have survived to 100 km/hr! Winds to 97 km/hr at YVR! Wide open exposure to the West! Wind gusts in excess of 100 km/hr " 85 feet above ground " High rise buildings to South and North Venturi effect? NSARC HF Operators 23
24 What Happened?! Tower broke off at the top of the bottom section, above the connections to the building! Struts and clamps to building undamaged! Tower joint (bottom to mid section) did not fail! Bottom tower section, outer leg, collapsed! Tower hinged, toppled and severed; antenna hit the deck! Yagi boom broke in half; elements on one side all destroyed! Mast broke in half at boom mounting connection NSARC HF Operators 24
25 Bottom Section! The failure point! Legs broken off below section joint and above clamps! Cross bracing has collapsed! Unsupported leg is pushed sideways and down NSARC HF Operators 25
26 Clamps and Struts! Clamps and Struts do not appear to be altered or distorted! Conclusion " Building attachment mechanism did not fail NSARC HF Operators 26
27 Mid Section! Note section joint is intact! Note one leg has collapsed! Collapsed leg is part of the unsupported leg of bottom section! Unsupported tower leg buckled to the East and was pushed up until bottom section failed NSARC HF Operators 27
28 Top and Mid Section! Top and mid sections have no apparent damage! Section joints are undamaged! No distortion of cross bracing! Rotor and bearing have no apparent damage! Conclusion " No failure in top or mid sections NSARC HF Operators 28
29 Mast Failure! Mast broke at bolt hole that locked the boom to the mast! This was not the supporting mechanism for the boom! Boom to mast clamp is intact & clamp acts above and below where the mast broke.! Conclusion " Mast broke when boom impacted roof as tower collapsed NSARC HF Operators 29
30 Yagi Failure! Asymmetrical damage! Boom broke in half on impact & punctured roof (only instance)! Conclusion " Yagi fell on end & side and hit roof as a result of tower collapse NSARC HF Operators 30
31 Analysis! Wind was from the west / tower collapsed to the East! Failure occurred in the bottom section above supports! Cross bracing failed! Both West tower legs acted as a hinge point.! East leg buckled and tower fell Eastwards! All legs severed under the rotation and load! Yagi was destroyed on impact with the roof NSARC HF Operators 31
32 What Induced the Failure?! Most likely TORQUE applied to lower section induced failure " Torque as a result of yagi whipping back and forth " Unsupported leg free to move " Restrained only by cross bracing " X braces solid aluminum rod soft material " Leg was pushed off center by torquing! West wind, so East leg takes all the compression " Equal tension is shared by the two West legs (stronger)! East leg then fails due to bending moment and tower collapses to the east destroying the yagi and breaking the mast and boom on impact with roof! This analysis is that of VA7JW. Other opinions may exist. NSARC HF Operators 32
33 What Now?! REBUILD!! NSEMO opened a Task Number to cover expenses incurred by them due to 15 Dec 06 Wind Storm! NSEMO will include our claim for loss of tower and antenna! Claim to be submitted to NSEMO by noon tomorrow 26 Jan 07! Will take 2 months for a ruling to be handed down! We do not expect to be covered for this event NSARC HF Operators 33
