Guying systems for overhead distribution lines and telecommunication networks

INTRODUCTION

Guying is a mechanical principle for strenghtening a

structure by linking the top of it to the earth.

Historically, guyed constructions have been the tallest

built by mankind. The most spectacular example is the

Warsaw radio mat, built in 1973 and culminating at a

height of 646 meters, it was for decades world’s tallest

structure !

The name of this technic comes from the wire used as

link which is called guy wire. Guying has been used for

many different applications along history. The most

common applications are the followings :

Suspension of guyed deck bridges

Reinforcement of boat masts

Reinforcement of plane wingsMaintainig tall radio mats Guiding tree growth

Guying systems for overhead distribution lines and telecommunication networksIntroduction Mechanical principle

MECHANICAL PRINCIPLE

The poles used for construction of overhead electrical distribution lines and

telecommunication networks are subject to many different strains. The most

critical one is often the traction force resulting from the line (conductor linear

weight, snow, ice,...).

This strain induces a very important moment of flexion at the base of the

pole that can result either in breaking or falling of the pole. Given its

specific shape (great height, small cross section), a force applied at

the top of the pole will be multiplied by a lever arm equivalent to its

height.

There are different methods to reinforce a pole but the most

efficient one is to guy it. By linking the top of the pole to the

earth by the mean of a wire, all the resulting efforts from the

line are taken off the pole and given to the guying system.

As a result, the pole is protected and its mechanical

strength is greatly enhanced, by a multiplier factor

from 5,5 to 8,5 times !

Guying the poles is a simple,efficient and economicalmethod for reinforcing thestructure of overhead lines.

To obtain an equivalent strength from a simple pole without

any guying, its cross section should be multiplied

significantly and would result in higher wood volume, hence

greater costs for fabrication, transport and installation.

TECHNICAL DATA

1. Wooden pole dimensions

Poles are designed to offer a constant strength, depending on their height. The the higher the strenght of a pole, the

bigger its diameter at the top and bottom. The available strenght corresponds to the strain applicable at pole top.

2. Contribution of guying

The table below shows the dimensions of guyed pole and their corresponding resulting strengths.

We can compare the available strength of a single pole with the strength of the same size of pole reinforced with

guying.

Depending on the type of installation, the guying system will increase the pole strength by 5,3 to 8,4 times.

This significant increase of strength is due to the fact that the mechanical strains are taken by the guying system

(extremly resistant to traction) instead of the pole itself.

3. Geometry of guying

The table below defines the minimal distance from the anchoring point to the pole base, depending on its height.

It also gives the minimum length the guying should have.

In order to ensure a good stability and an optimal strength of the pole, distance between anchoring point and pole

base must be at least 70% of the pole height, hence a minimal length of guying of at least 122% of pole height.

The depth of anchoring depends of course from the type of pole used and the characteristic of the soil where it is

installed.

A general rule is that the anchoring depth should be at least 1,3 meters for pole with a nominal strength of 1 400 N,

1,5 meters for poles with a 1900N nominal strength, and 1,6 meters for poles with 2 550 N nominal strength.

SOILS CLASSIFICATIONS

The mechanical strength of any anchoring system depends of different parameters, like its geometry of installation

or the soil properties (type, thickness of sediments, geotechnical properties).

In order to choose the best anchoring method and to estimate its mechanical strength, it is therefore essential to

take in account the nature of the soil where the guying system will be installed.

The example below shows the classification of soils used in European countries as defined by Eurocode8.

Depending on the country of reference, the classification of the soils will change but the logic stays the same (only

the names and the numbers of category change).

Vs,30 is the speed of shearing waves, NSPT is the number of strokes per normalized penetration test, and Cu is the

resistance to shearing of the undrained soil.

The nominal strength of a given anchor will greatly varies with the class of soil. As an example, an expanding anchor

of 200 mm diameter (8 inches) will hold a traction force up to 12 000 daN (26 500 lbs) in a class B soil but only

4 500 daN (10 000 lbs) in a class D soil, so 3 times less.

1Earthanchoring

Earth anchorThere are different anchoring methods to link the guy wire to the Earth. Each of them has its own advantages

depending on the conditions of installation and nature of the soil.

The use of a metallic sole associated with an anchor rod is a simple way of anchoring a guy wire to the earth. The

sole is directly burried into the ground with the rod attached to it, only the tip of the rod stays out to attach the guy

wire.

The sole can take all the traction strains because of its wide surface in contact with the earth.
