RELEVANCE OF ISO ICE CLASSES TO TOWER STRUCTURES
The International Standard ISO 12494 gives a method to assess rime ice loads on complex structures. We present an analysis of the applicability of the ISO method based on field data that include ice masses measured simultaneously on the ISO standard ice collector, a 7.5 m tall self supported lattice structure and a 127 m tall guyed lattice tower. We compare ice masses on these three objects in different ice classes and calculate the ice masses expected on the structures based on the ISO method. The results show that the ISO Ice Classes are a useful tool in assessing rime ice loads on the structures, but that inaccuracies arise, partly related to poorly known ice shedding mechanisms.
