Abstract
A carbon fiber structure that achieves the strength and durability of steel tower alternatives at 90% less weight and a lower total installed cost. The mass production process provides affordable carbon fiber telecommunication towers that are engineered for peak strength to weight performance. The composite non-corrosive, non-rusting towers are easy to install and transport to remote locations and have lower maintenance than alternatives. The tapered monopole series provides a wide array of tower options that are all engineered for unparalleled strength to weight characteristics. The carbon fiber structures provide an aesthetical, lightweight, minimum base width, that are transportation friendly with sections that can be nested inside themselves to optimize.

A screw pile base for larger towers in smaller areas, the screw pile base having a shaft and a screw pile connector, wherein the screw pile connector has a central cylindrical component and four screw pile protrusions that extend outward from the central cylindrical component laterally in four directions, wherein the screw pile connector has planks connected to each of the screw pile protrusions at a top surface of an opposite end of the screw pile protrusions from the central cylindrical component, wherein the planks are perpendicular to the screw pile protrusions, wherein the shaft has a cylindrical body and four shaft first protrusions that extend outward from the cylindrical body laterally in four directions, wherein the shaft has shaft second protrusions connected to each of the four shaft first protrusions at a bottom surface of an opposite end of the shaft first protrusions from the cylindrical body, wherein the second shaft protrusions of the shaft are perpendicular to the first shaft protrusions of the shaft, wherein the shaft has an upper component and a lower component, wherein the upper component is wider than the lower component, wherein the upper component and the lower component are separated by a middle plate.
A screw pile base for larger towers in smaller areas, the screw pile base having a shaft and a screw pile connector, wherein the screw pile connector has a central cylindrical component and four screw pile connector protrusions that extend laterally outward from the central cylindrical component, wherein the screw pile connector has screw pile connector planks connected to the screw pile connector protrusions at a top surface of a distal end of the screw pile connector protrusions, wherein the shaft has a cylindrical body with shaft protrusions that extend laterally outward from the cylindrical body, wherein the shaft protrusions are connected to shaft planks at a bottom surface of a distal end of the shaft protrusions, wherein the shaft planks and the screw pile connector planks are parallel and vertically aligned with each other, wherein one or more mounting plates are positioned at a length of the screw pile connector protrusions between the central cylindrical component and the screw pile connector planks, wherein one or more second mounting shaft plates directly connecting with the one or more mounting plates by one or more fasteners are positioned at a length of the screw pile connector protrusions between the cylindrical body and the shaft protrusions, wherein the one or more mounting plates are directly connected to and extend above the screw pile connector protrusions and the one or more mounting plates are directly connected to and extend below the shaft protrusions.
