The guyed tower is an offshore platform that rests on a spud can or bearing foundation and is held upright by multiple guylines. A simplified procedure for calculating the wave-induced dynamic response of this compliant tower is presented. Also, the dynamic characteristics that allow the structure to safely resist large ocean waves is discussed. A large scale test model of the tower has been installed in 300 feet of water in the Gulf of Mexico to verify the validity of the conclusions drawn.
