World's Tallest Transmission Tower Collapse Simulation | Jintang-Cezi Overhead Powerline Link

  • The two steel transmission towers that make up the Jintang-Cezi Overhead Powerline Link in China are the world's tallest, at 380 m (1247 ft). This video is a simulation of how these structures would collapse.
    The towers have been accurately modelled in Blender at true scale, with the physics simulation being handled by the Bullet Constraints Builder add-on for Blender. Some simplifications have been made in the modelling of the towers, specifically, all steel members are solid when in realility they would be hollow. Nonetheless, the simulation is quite realistic.
    The aim of this video is to bring awareness to the impressive size of these relatively unknown towers, and also give a glimpse at what would happen in the unlikely event of their collapse.
    Thank you to ‪@EarthquakeSim‬ and ‪@KaiKostack‬ for their tutorials on using the Bullet Constraints Builder in Blender.

    cables would be aluminium not steel for power transmission. the second tower would collapse away from the first as the cables would not be in balance and allow the remaining cables to pull away from the collapsed tower.

      If I had modelled cables on the other side of both towers, the situation you described would have occured.

    Great simulation & relaxing music. One small correction regarding comparisons. Elizabeth Tower is the vertical structure in which Big Ben (the clock) is placed.

    If you're doing hypothetical collapes, you should do the Arch in St. Louis.

      Given the water is used for shipping, they must have figured that having overheard powerlines would be cheaper and more efficient than an underground cable.
