Abstract :
Poles are ordinarily considered as rigid struts in designing structures for supporting overhead lines, even in situations where they are not restrained by guys and it is known that movement takes place under variation in loading. This paper points out the importance of making allowance for this factor under certain conditions and gives the theory and practical methods for its solution.
