There are too many literature papers available for analyzing and designing the transmission line tower.
They show the comparison of different types of towers in form of applicability, economy, stability and different
configuration. Transmission line tower constitute about 28 to 42 percent costs of the transmission lines. The increasing
demand for electrical energy can be met more economical by developing different light weight configurations of
transmission line towers by using hollow steel section instead of convectional section. In present work, the entire
transmission line towers are designed with convectional section.
