The calculations were performed taking into account L/1000 imperfections equal to the permissible assembly deviations as per [1], and L/500 equal to initial imperfections as for uniform built-up columns according to [2]. Remarks and final conclusions have practical meaning and can be useful in design practice.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Imperfections in calculations of guyed lattice masts}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/83974/mainfile.pdf}, keywords={guyed mast, static analysis, initial geometric imperfections}, }
