Crossarms

Hughes Brothers manufactures Douglas-fir crossarms to a large variety of specifications and cross-sectional dimensions. This section is intended to help the user decide which crossarm specification is best suited to the application at hand.

Distribution Crossarms, 4" x 5" and smaller

Crossarms 1) Utility Specifications:


Hughes Brothers, Inc. can manufacture crossarms in accordance with any utility specification using material which has been pre-graded to WCLIB Paragraph 170 and 170a. Crossarms are also routinely manufactured in accordance with ANSI 05.3, REA 1728H-701 and the old REA DT-5B and EEI specification TD-90.

2) REA Specification:
Unless specified otherwise, Hughes Brothers lumbergraders will apply the provisions of REA 1728H-701 as the minimum acceptable quality of wood crossarm for any crossarm purchased. An overview of this specification is given later in this section.

3) Utility Grade Crossarms:


User specific crossarm grading generates a certain number of timbers which do not meet the exact specification criteria, but are still quality timbers. These timbers meet many of the specifications of other utilities and are manufactured and sold as "utility grade" crossarms. Utility grade crossarms are generally graded in accordance with REA specifications and WCLIB. Knots along or near the neutral axis near the center of the arm or pole mounting hole are not cause for reject. This simple change in grading rules does not effect the strength or longevity of the crossarm, and maximizes the use of our raw timber resource.

Hughes Brothers Crossarms are identified by RED ENDS

Choice of structural materials:


Hughes Brothers, Inc. offers distribution crossarms made from solid sawn Douglas-fir, glue laminated wood in accordance with ANSI 05.2. By making all types of crossarms available, the customer can make the best choice based on economic and other factors present at that time.

Crossarms
The following photographs and descriptions illustrate some of the naturally occuring properties of solid sawn wood which must be limited to ensure a certain average design stress is attained.

Rate of Growth
Close grain is defined as an average of approximately 6 rings per inch, but not more than approximately 30 annual rings per inch on either one end of the piece or the other. In Douglas-fir, pieces averaging 5 rings or more than 30 rings per inch are accepted as close grain if averaging 1/3 or more summerwood.

Pitch Pockets
A pitch pocket is a pitch filled, well defined opening between the rings of annual growth which develops during the growth of the tree. Pitch pockets are limited according to WCLIB Standard No. 17 to two small (1/16" x 6", 1/8" x 4" or 1/4" x 2") on the top face and three medium (1/6" x 12", 1/8" x 8" or 3/8" x 4") on all other faces.

Seasoning Checks
Checks are defined as a separation of the wood normally occuring across or through the rings of annual growth and usually as the result of seasoning.

Rot
Rot, dote or red heart will not be permitted.

Slope of Grain
Slope of grain is the deviation of the wood fiber from a line parallel to the edge of the piece. The deviation is expressed as a ratio of 1 inch per unit of length. Examples are 1 inch in 12 inches, 1 inch in 10 inches, etc. Hughes crossarms are limited to a slope of grain of 1 in 12 in the center one third of the arm and 1 in 10 in the outer sections. Twenty percent of a lot may have a slope of grain of 1 in 10 for the entire arm.

Knots
Knots are the portion of a branch or limb which has become incorporated into a peice of lumber during the growth of the tree. Each utility specification has differing knot and knot location restrictions. In general, knots under 3/8" in diameter are pin knots and not considered. Knots are measured by averaging the least dimension of the knot on both faces. If the knot appears on one face only, the average would be the measured dimension divided by two.

Free of Heart Center (FOHC or Boxed Heart)


FOHC means without pith. All Douglas-fir crossarms are manufactured FOHC on one end of the timber and no more than 1/4 of the length of the timber may show any heart on occasional pieces.

Crossarms
Wane
Wane is the loss of wood on the corner of the piece due to bark or any other cause. It is limited to 1/2" measured diagonally.

Sapwood
Sapwood in excess of 25% in volume of total arm will not be permitted.

Warp
Warp exceeding 1/2 inch for crossarms 6 ft or less in length, 3/4 inch for crossarms 8 ft or less in length, and 1 inch for crossarms 10 ft or less in length. The warp shall be determined by measuring the offset between the crossarm and a straight-edge laid lengthwise on the concave face of the crossarm.

Shakes
Shake is the lengthwise separation of the wood which occurs between or through the rings of annual growth. True shake, where separation is evident, is prohibited.

Inspection Worm Holes


Worm holes or pieces containing dead wood will not be permitted. Inspection and acceptance may be made either at the point of manufacture or upon delivery of the finished product. Hughes Brothers shall give to the purchaser or his representative such access to the plant during working hours as is reasonable and necessary to determine the suitability of material to be supplied and shall furnish all necessary apparatus, labor and other facilities for making the tests herein called for without cost to the purchaser. Waiving of inspection shall not relieve the manufacturer from obligation to furnish material in accordance with their specification.

Seasoning
Crossarms shall be made of thoroughly seasoned timber. The average moisture content of any lot of untreated arms shall not be less than 12% nor more than 19% and no piece shall exceed 25% as determined by approved resistance type moisture meter on oven dry weight.

Preservative Treatment
Hughes Brothers has long recognized the advantage of treating exposed fibers of wood components of utility structures. Treated wood framing components have in some areas extended the life span of the components to fifty years. Hughes Brothers uses a proprietary, non-evaporating P9 oil as a carrier for the Pentachlorophenol in the pressure treatment process. The final color after treatment is shade 5 or lighter according to standard color charts.

Industry Standards
AWPA C25 ANSI 05.2 ANSI 05.3 REA 1728H-701 Sawn crossarms - preservative treatment by pressure processes. Specifications for wood products - structural glue laminated timber for utility structures. Specifications and dimensions - solid sawn wood crossarms and braces. Specification for wood crossarms (solid and laminated), transmission timbers and pole keys.

Hughes Brothers has two pressure treating retorts, 40-0 and 65-0 in length.

Incising
Incising is a process where small incisions are made along all faces of the crossarms. The benefits of incising are to aid in the penetration of preservative treatment and to relieve surface tension of the wood fiber, thus reducing the possibility of surface checks. Hughes Brothers incising machines can handle pieces up to 6 x 12.

Double Arm Dead End Assemblies
Hughes Brothers 2890 Series Double Arm Dead End Assemblies are furnished factory assembled. Each unit is supplied with assembled double arms, braces, brace & arm mounting bolts, washers, nuts & locknuts, ready for field installation. Hughes Brothers factory assembled dead-ends are stronger than conventional dead ends. Hughes Brothers lumber graders carefully select each wood member in the assembly. The following chart enables the engineer to select a dead end assembly of known strength rating for the specific loading conditions. (See the comparison of the strength of Hughes Brothers Double Arm Dead End versus conventional dead-end assemblies.) As with all Hughes Brothers wood products, special attention is given to all timber connections to ensure that timber shrinkage over time does not result in radio frequency interference.

DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS
1. The recommended double arm assemblies are based on a maximum load tension not exceeding 60% of the ultimate conductor tensile strength, and the induced stress in the arms not exceeding 50% of the average ultimate fiber stress of the Douglas-fir arms. 2. It is recommended the 60F bare conductor wire tension not exceed 30% of the conductor ultimate tensile strength. 3. It is recommended the 60F bare conductor wire tension does not generate a stress in the arm which will exceed 25% of the average ultimate fiber stress of Douglas-fir. 4. Guying conditions and attachments were not considered for the development of this chart.

Dead End Assemblies


3377 Braceless Dead End Assembly
The Hughes Brothers 3377 Series of single arm, braceless dead ends offer a trim appearance. The assembly uses either a solid sawn Douglas-fir or ANSI 05.2 glue-laminated timber with a galvanized steel mounting bracket. The unique mounting bracket features a keyhole and slot to ease installation and also provides greater climbing clearances than a dead end with braces.

Strength ratings shown are based on theoretical strength calculations. The 3377 is approved for REA construction.

DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS
1. The recommended braceless arm assemblies are based on a maximum load tension not exceeding 60% of the ultimate conductor tensile strength, and the induced stress in the arms not exceeding 50% of the average ultimate fiber stress of the Douglas-fir arms. 2. It is recommended the 60F bare conductor wire tension does not generate a stress in the arm which will exceed 25% of the average ultimate fiber stress of Douglas-fir. 3. Guying conditions and attachments were not considered for the development of this chart.

Wood Distribution Crossarm Braces
Hughes Brothers distribution crossarm braces are manufactured from clear, straight grained Douglas-fir and pressure treated with Pentachlorophenol in oil. End fittings are hot dip galvanized per ASTM-A153. Each brace has been designed with double nut connections by tapping metal through holes, to eliminate radio frequency interference and ensure tight connections. Metal connections are designed to allow full drainage of moisture, leaving no place for decay to develop. Electrically, wood distribution braces take full advantage of the insulating properties of wood crossarms. Any short circuit path between conductors is eliminated. Special length braces can be furnished in any practical spacing or drop.

X-Braces
Wood X-Bracing for Transmission Structures
When the first unbraced H-Frame structure was erected on our testing site (in the late 1920s), excessive deflection under relatively small loads was obvious. Hughes Brothers immediately accepted the challenge of developing bracing to reduce deflection and to strengthen transmission and distribution structures. After hundreds of tests on fittings and full size structures, X-Braces were developed which today are as much a part of an H-Frame as the poles and crossarms. Maintenance costs of X-Braced structures are lower than unbraced structures because X-Braced structures remain straight and true for the life of the line. Many years of experience in testing full scale, XBraced structures plus years of actual operating experience enable our engineering department to provide practical assistance. There are many subtleties involved in the design of a Hughes X-Brace that cannot be duplicated by simple timber X-Bracing. Let the Hughes Engineering staff help you determine the optimal size & placement of your next X-Brace application. You are invited to submit your structural design requirements without obligation. Please refer to the Engineering section for analysis of X-Brace design and location in structure systems.

X-Braces
1042 X-Brace
Hughes Brothers 1042 X-Braces are widely used because they increase the strength of H-Frames, reduce earth pressures and structure deflection, eliminate the necessity of storm guys, make possible the use of smaller poles, require no additional right of way and reduce to a minimum the overall maintenance costs. In addition to transmission lines, X-Braces are used on structures for river crossings, long span highway crossings, railroad crossings, switches, alleys and substations. Our engineering department will assist you with for the correct application of X-Braces. Hughes No. 1042 X-Braces are made of select Douglas-fir timber, and pressure treated with pentachlorophenol. The 1042 series incorporates a wood section of 3-3/8" x 4-3/8" for pole spacings up to 14'-0" and 3-3/8" x 5-3/8" for spacings 14'-6" and over. All fittings, washer plates, center clamps, washers and bolts are hot dipped galvanized. Fittings are made from 1/4" material. Washer plates are threaded for 1/2" bolts, locking the bolt for "Static Proof" hardware. Mounting bolt holes are 15/16". Center clamps keep the brace in alignment under compression loads while permitting free movement of the wood. Center clamp straps are made from 1/4" x 1-3/4" stock, center clamp bolts are made from 1/2" steel rods with forged shoulders and cut threads on each end. Hughes Brothers 1042 X-Braces are shipped as a complete set, assembled, mounting hardware packaged, ready to install, when ordered complete (CPT). When ordering X-Braces, please specify center to center pole spacing and length of bolts. Unless otherwise specified, 50% of total bolts furnished are 7/8" x 14" and 50% are 7/8" x 16" cut thread machine bolts.

Center Clamps
2840 X-Brace Center Clamp
Center Clamps play a very important role in an X-Brace assembly. By clamping the center of an X-Brace, the effective length of the compression member is reduced by half. It is also important that the center clamp is free to move as the structure is loaded. Hughes Brothers center clamps are the result of years of full scale testing of H-Frames and a thorough understanding of the proper use of X-Bracing.

2508 Wood Guy Markers
Hughes Brothers 2508 Wood Guy Markers are made of straight grain fir. They are dip painted in either high visibility white or yellow. Each guy guard is 1 3/4" x 2 5/8" x 8' in length with an inside groove 3/4" deep and 9/16" wide. Three tie wires are attached to each marker and only a pair of lineman's pliers are necessary for installation. A 6" mortised end rests firmly on the anchor end of the guy. The guy markers have no bolts, bulky catches, hinges or parts to lose. Hughes 2508 Guy Markers are wrapped in heavy kraft paper in bundles of 10 for shipping. Wood Guy Markers work especially well in areas of high ultra-violet radiation, outlasting most resin based, plastic guy guards. Douglas-fir breaks down under average UV exposure at the rate of 1/4" per 100 years.

CF690 Guy Strain in Guy Marker Application
The CF690 may also be used as a guy marker in areas of high vandalism. In this instance, the CF690 is manufactured from a high visibility yellow rod and coated with a polyurethane enamel yellow paint which is baked to hardness. The CF690 end fitting can be undone to loop the end through an earth anchor. The resulting installation will be nearly impossible to undo after the guy strand is installed. In this application, the guy marker also serves the dual purpose of guy strain insulator and guy marker. CC ("L" + 4-11/16") L

Other guy markers can sometimes be vandalized by pushing them up the guy wire.

Ordering Example:
CF690-144 R GM
Designates yellow rod coated with high visibility yellow paint for guy marker application. Designates roller in clevis end. Length ( "L" = 144" ).

The Hughes Brothers CF690 Guy Strain is an integral part of the guy and cannot be moved, When ordered as a guy marker, the CF690 is coated with high visibility yellow paint.

Spacer Fittings
Adjustable Spacer Fittings for H-Frame Double Arm Assemblies
Hughes Brothers Adjustable Spacer Fittings are used to facilitate double arm H-frame transmission arm construction. The distance between side arms can be varied to accommodate different pole diameters. This adjustability also greatly eases field framing operations. The double arm assemblies can be spread wide and slipped down the poles into position where the side arms can then be tightened against the poles. The 3414 allows for brace and insulator attachment while properly transferring loads to side arms.

Spacer Fittings
Explanation and Use of Tables - In ordering a 3414 Spacer Fitting, a code made up from the tables is used to identify the arm size, their spacing and bolt sizes with which they will be used. For example: a 3414.6FL-100 would indicate a spacer for a 3-3/4" x 8-3/4" arm, 8-1/2" to 12-1/2" adjustment, and tapped 5/8" vertical and horizontal bolts. Table I gives the bolt sizes for which the spacer is to be tapped. Tables II & III give the various dimensions of the finished spacer. Table IV (page 16) gives the range of adjustment.

Pole Top Pins


2770 Pole Top Pin with Nylon Alloy Threads
Hughes Brothers 2770 series of steel pole top pins feature a nylon alloy material as an alternative to cast lead threads. The use of a nylon alloy thread offers superior insulator to pole top pin fit and alignment. Also, handling, use and disposal problems associated with lead threads are eliminated. Extensive testing of the nylon alloy in the pole top application has been performed by Hughes Brothers.

Benefits of the Hughes Brothers Nylon Alloy threads are: - A flexible more resilient thread than lead threads - Superior insulator alignment - A firm, stable fit with most common pin insulators ie. no rocking of the insulator - Superior strength over lead threads

The 2770 is designed to be equally strong when mounted with channel facing or away from the pole. This feature allows for a 1" variation in pole mounting bolt length.

1144 Ridge Iron


Hughes Brothers developed these Ridge Irons which today are nationally accepted as a standard. The 1144 Ridge Irons were originally designed so utility companies could use the short shank pins they had on hand. The No. 1144-A are now preferred because they utilize the same long shank pins used in crossarms and because they are stronger due to the action of the pin-shank bracket. Both the 1144 and 1144-A are simple in design, contain a minimum of parts and withstand all loads that can be carried by standard insulator pins. These ridge irons are formed to fit the pole which helps to prevent pole-top splitting and are used primarily for 13.2 kv. to 44 kv. construction. The side members are formed from 4" x 3/16" steel. Shipped in bundles of five ridge irons Insulator pins not included Mounting bolts should be ordered from our bolt section

Transformer Platforms
Open, Alley and Bridge Type Transformer Platforms
Hughes Brothers Standard Transformer Platforms are complete units partially factory assembled for quick and easy installation. These prefabricated units are economical because no field work is required other than boring the pole holes; theres no cutting, fitting, waste or costly delays. Complete units can be relocated if necessary, to meet service demands. Wood members are made from select Douglas-fir components, pressure treated with pentachlorophenol. The following pages show Open, Alley and Bridge type transformer platforms for various pole spacings.

Transformer Platforms (spread channel)


Spread Channel Transformer Platforms

Hughes Brothers Spread Channel Transformer Platforms have side channels which are attached to channels rather than directly to the poles. This allows for greater vertical space under the platform. The spread-channel type platform has the planks made into removable panels allowing the transformer to be raised vertically through the platform. The panels are easily replaced in their proper positions. The same advantages are present in the removal of a transformer. Usually a transformer can be removed without disturbing the adjacent transformers. Hughes Brothers Transformer Platforms are furnished complete, shipped with all bolts, ready to install. These prefabricated units are economical because no field work is required other than boring the pole holes; theres no cutting, fitting, waste or costly delays. Wood parts are made from Douglas-fir, pressure treated with pentachlorophenol. Steel parts are hot dip galvanized.

Fiberglass
Pultruded Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic Rod Data Sheet
Hughes Brothers Fiberglass Reinforced Polymer Rod is designed and manufactured for high performance in applications where resistance to stress, weathering and corrosive atmospheres are important. Hughes Brothers FRP Rod is produced by pultrusion process. The glass strands are held at a constant tension and are drawn through a resin bath where the strands are completely saturated with resin. The glass/resin rovings are then pulled through a a sizing die to remove excess resin and through a radio frequency pre-heater. Polymerization takes place in a heated final sizing die and the rod exits this die a thermoset shape. Hughes Brothers FRP Rod is produced in a variety of cross section diameters ranging from 1/2 in. through 3 in. diameter. The standard color is a medium-dark gray.

Fiberglass Guy Strains


Strain Insulators
Hughes Brothers Guy Strains are manufactured from Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP) with ductile iron fittings. The plastic material is a Polyester/Vinylester matrix containing ultraviolet protective inhibitors. All exposed fiberglass rod is coated with 2-3 mils of acrylic urethane enamel paint which is baked to hardness. An option is available to coat exposed rod with CITM cross linked polymeric coating for improved weatherability and tracking characteristics. Ductile iron is 65-45-12 with hot dip galvanizing. Each guy strain is factory tested to 100% of its rating. The month and year of manufacture are stamped on the lead filler plug at the end of each strain. All Hughes Brothers Guy Strains are manufactured utilizing an epoxy wedge system. Adequate glue bond to the FRP Rod is ensured by roughening the FRP Rod Surface prior to glue up. Note: Lengths other than those shown are readily available.

Steel Davit Arms


Hughes Brothers Steel Davit Arms
Each Hughes Brothers Steel Davit is assigned a serial number at the time of manufacture. This allows us to trace material, welding and other manufacturing procedures. After producing over 100,000 steel davit arms since the late 1970's we have yet to have a single failure. Davits can be custom designed for a particular application. 100% mechanical proof loading and magnetic particle verification of critical welds per ASTM E709, in conjunction with ANSI / AWS D1.1 are available as quality control options. Our standard production procedure utilizes mil-standard 105D sampling for proof load testing unless specified otherwise. Hughes Brothers provides Steel Davits for use on wood, concrete or steel poles.

Transmission Design
General Engineering
Since the early 1920s, the Hughes Brothers' engineering staff has assisted in the construction of more than a hundred thousand circuit miles of overhead construction. Our engineering staff is prepared to offer their assistance by providing: Structural analysis of tower configurations Full scale testing Design & computer aided drafting Cost analysis and competitive bid analysis Project administration i.e., order processing, expediting, delivery coordination for the materials we supply. Field inspection and customer service

Transmission engineers are fully aware that the mere assembly of poles, arms, braces, insulators, conductors, guys and hardware is not transmission construction. Properly designed transmission structures result from a complete study of all the conditions affecting the project.

This catalog section gives full consideration to the following important design criteria: 1) The most economically designed tangent structure, which considers only a maximum span, does not usually or necessarily result in the most economical transmission line. 2) Properly designed, efficient transmission structures result from a complete study of the route of the line, including profile, soil types, number and magnitude of angles, and the unusual and local conditions which are a part of any line. 3) Braced H-Frame lines have been built at a savings over unbraced H-Frame lines, resulting in greater strength and lower maintenance.

4) H-Frame lines can and have been built at a savings in cost over single pole lines. 5) Full size tests should be made on new developments before they are used in actual construction. 6) Successful transmission line construction is not based on the length of time in service, but whether it has been subjected to the load for which it was designed. In the presentation of this manual, we have tried to indicate to designers, operators and builders of overhead construction that our staff of engineers and our testing laboratory are available to the utility industry.

Transmission Design
The selection of the design of the tangent structure should be made with reference to the overall cost of the line which will include an analysis of the profile, conductor, right of way and local conditions affecting span lengths. In general, Type C construction shown below, will rarely produce the most economical line. The span length will be limited, requiring more structures and associated parts; the deflection and earth pressure will be excessive. The simple installation of the X-brace, as in Type B will eliminate deflection, reduce earth pressure, permit the use of smaller poles and result in longer spans and greater safety factors. The Type A design will usually result in the safest, strongest and most economical long span, high voltage structure. The knee or vee braces permit the pole tops to act as guided cantilevers by introducing a point of inflection between the cross arm and top of the X-braces. Without these braces, the poles above the X-Braces act as simple cantilevers.

Hughes Adjustable Spacer Fittings


Hughes Adjustable Spacer Fittings with double arm assemblies eliminate eccentric loading and distribute shear forces on mounting hardware. The adjustable spacer fitting allows for variations in pole diameter. It also helps ease installation of the pre-assembled crossarms by enabling crews to widen the arm assemblies, slide them over the top of the poles, and tighten the arm assembly.

Conclusion
Hughes Brothers Davit Arms can provide a more economical means of supporting conductors than post insulators. The longer spans that are obtained with davit arm construction translate into total project cost savings. Fewer poles, insulators, and less labor lower the construction cost. In the long run, less equipment in the fields means lower maintenance costs.

Test Procedure

Vertical loads are applied by suspending pre-weighed concrete and steel weights at each phase and shield wire position. The weights are raised by remotely operated hydraulic cylinders. Transverse loads are the applied by means of power operated winches. The loads are monitored by certified dynamometers. Deflections are measured at selected points on the structure by reading calibrated rules with a transit. All data is recorded at the time it is generated.

The above figures indicate the bending strengths of the poles predicted through nondestructive evaluation as well as the actual stresses at failure determined through structural analysis. While strength predictions will not always be this accurate (strength prediction was within 1% of stress failure), the test results illustrate the value of assessing the reliability of existing structures and making improved upgrading and reframing decisions.

Transmission Design
Transmission Design Configurations
Since 1921, Hughes Brothers has been developing a diverse selection of framing designs for wood, concrete and steel construction. Each structure is designed to meet the specific loading, geographical, right of way and construction preferences of the project at hand. Our library of structure designs is without equal in the industry. Before embarking on a new transmission structure design, we hope that you will contact Hughes Brothers engineering staff. Our tower design expertise is offered without obligation.

69 kV - 161 kV
Wood tension braces provide maximum conductor clearance. Compression braces (braces attached below the crossarms) are also available.

69 kV - 230 kV
"Wishbone" framing with single or double arm assemblies is a very cost effective type of framing for single pole construction.

69 kV - 161 kV

69 kV - 230 kV
Fiberglass is an attractive option for both single and double circuit construction with either wood, concrete or steel poles.

Wood or steel Davits used on wood, concrete and steel poles for both single and double circuit construction and have proven to be more economical than post insulator construction for many applications.

Transmission Design
69 kV - 230 kV
Fiberglass framing in conjunction with wood X-Bracing is an effective option for maintenance or upgrading existing structures.

69 kV - 161 kV
Double or single (laminated or solid sawn) arms are available for the standard H-Frame with or without knee or vee braces.

69 kV - 161 kV
The framing for a typical H-Frame in this voltage range may be sized for either a single or bundled conductor.

230 kV
The framing for this typical HFrame is sized to provide electrical clearances required for lines of this voltage and may be sized for either a single or bundled conductor. Typically pole spacings are greater than for 69 - 161 kV construction.

230 kV
The framing for this K-Frame structure uses relatively short crossarm timbers which are more readily available from solid sawn lumber. The timbers may be sized for either a single or bundled conductor.

345 kV
This wide based H-Frame with the center phase supported by a vee string, reduces the length and cost of framing members and also reduces potential uplift and thrust problems.

345 kV
This narrow pole spacing H-Frame uses a vee string for support of the center phase and is especially suited for narrow right-of-way applications.

345 kV
This is a typical H-Frame for EHV. The framing members are custom designed for specified wire sizes and span lengths.

Transmission Design
345 kV
This H-Frame is constructed with extended double center crossarm braces to support the shield wires and is often used when the shield wires are insulated or if the structure is designed for large transverse loads.

345 kV
The 345 kV K-Frame structure utilizes shorter, more readily available timbers. The shorter members are also easier to transport in rough terrain.

345 kV
The double K-Frame is designed for long spans and/or larger conductor sizes.

69 kV - 230 kV
Wood double circuit tangent structures have proven to be reliable and very economical for most voltage ranges.

345 kV / 230 kV
Wood double circuit tangent structures with different voltages are effective and economical for voltages through 345 kV / 230 kV
