Tower engineering Tower tendering process from 2 weeks to 2 minutes with AI/ML. Using our PriceBook™ application it is possible to generate detailed tower designs including all accessories and transportation with prices. The process takes about 2 minutes, compared to traditional approaches ranging from days to weeks. #MNO #towerco #telecom #towerdesign #pricebook
Tower engineering How to find optimal shape for lattice towers? A parametric study for lattice towers to find the most optimal layout, aka layout optimisation with Rhino, Grasshopper and Karamba3D. #parametric #computationaldesign #grasshopper #towers #towerdesign
IoT IoT prototyping with Raspberry Pi, Mender OTA and Firebase This topic might seem a bit far from tower engineering but I could not skip it as IoT is not the future anymore but our present. It is great to have an insight how site-specific design parameters are gathered and analysed which might lead us to make better tower designs.
Tower engineering How towercos can reduce cost by 60% on tower upgrades with site-specific wind assessment? Most of the green-field tower deployments hold the opportunity to utilise the towers and mast in a better way and add more antennas without even adding a single piece of strengthening steel. But how?
