Calculation of Crippling (Ultimate Transverse ) Load on Pole

Wind Pressure
Type of Pole
Total Height of Pole
Class of Pole ( If Known)
Height of Pole in Ground
Height of Pole above Ground
Conductor Mounting from Top of The Pole
No of Conductors on Pole
Line Span
Size of Conductor

Pole Section on Top (Length X Width )mm
Pole Section on Bottom (Length X Width )mm
Minimum Ultimate Transverse Load for 10 Meter Pole at 0.5 Meter If Your Know otherwise Leave Blank

CALCULATIONS
Wind Load on Conductor/Span
Total Bending Movement at Ground Level due to Wind Load on All Conductor
Equivalent Safe Working Load at said Meter from TOP of The Pole corresponding to Wind Load on All
Conductors
Wind Load on Pole Surface above Ground Level
Centre of Gravity of Tapering rectangular section of Pole
Bending Movement at Ground Level due to Wind Load on Pole
Equivalent Safe Working Load at said meter from Top of The Pole corresponding to Wind Load on Pole
Total Tansverse Load at said meter from Top of The Pole (Due to wind Load on Conductors + Wind Load on Pole
Surface)
Total Transverse Load (Crippling Load) Capacity of Pole
Selection of Pole
