Key Characteristics of Tube/Monopole Towers
- Structure: A single, tapered tube (usually galvanized steel) that requires only one, small foundation.
- Antenna Mounting: Antennas are typically mounted on the exterior of the top of the tower, often on a platform or directly attached.
- Applications: Commonly used by cellular carriers for voice and data coverage in, as well as for space-constrained sites.
- Advantages: They have a small wind load coefficient (high wind resistance), are easy to install, and require less land.
Types of Tubular Structures
- Standard Monopole: The most common single-pole design.
- Telescopic/Portable: Portable cell towers (often called COWs—Cell on Wheels) sometimes use telescoping tubular masts for temporary, rapid deployment.
- 3-Leg/4-Leg Tubular Towers: While not single-tube, these are self-supporting towers constructed from tubular steel sections, offering higher load capacity than a single monopole.
