This 5-hour course is the final in a series of courses on the design of medium voltage electrical transmission lines. This volume is divided into two chapters: the first chapter addresses the design of single pole structures, and the second chapter explains how to design H-frame structures.
Specific Knowledge or Skill Obtained
This course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:
- How to calculate structural loading of single pole structures
- The factors that limit span lengths
- How to determine the maximum level ground span
- How to calculate the maximum horizontal spans for a wood structure
- How to use the “ground line method” for structural analysis
- The factors involved in vertical spans calculations
- The loading factors for H-frame structures
- The impact of crossbraces on H-frame structures
- The benefits of various V-brace configurations
Certificate of Completion
You will be able to immediately print a certificate of completion after passing a multiple-choice quiz consisting of 30 questions. PDH credits are not awarded until the course is completed and quiz is passed.
