:CALCULATION:

Using Weill Equation:

T₂³+T₂²{(W2²*S²*E*A/24*T₁²)-T₁+A*E*C*(ΔT)}=W1²*S²*E*A/24

Solving for T₂:

W2 = [(Ww)²+(W1)²]^0.5

Ww = P x D

Ww (kg/m) = 2.0117

W2 (kg/m) = 2.1261

T₁ = UTS x MWT

T₁ (kgf) = 2558

ΔT = T2 - T1

ΔT = 57.80

Weill Formula can be written as:

aT³+bT²+cT=d

Variables Coefficient
a= 1
b= {(W2²*S²*E*A/24*T₁²)+A*E*C*(ΔT)-T₁}
c= 0
d= W1²*S²*E*A/24

Using Goal Seek of Excel to find T₂ (See table 1 for procedure)

Variables Coefficient
a= 1
b= 685.34
c= 0
d= 5.76E+08

For Initial assumption, set T₂ = 0

if T₂ (kgf) = 655.4066117803 --->> set to "0 (zero)"

d= 9.18E-05
Therefore:

T₂ (kgf)= 655.41

:CALCULATION:

Using Weill Equation:

T₂³+T₂²{(W2²*S²*E*A/24*T₁²)-T₁+A*E*C*(ΔT)}=W1²*S²*E*A/24

Solving for T₂:

W2 = [(Ww)²+(W1)²]^0.5

Ww = P x D

Ww (kg/m) = 2.0117

W2 (kg/m) = 2.1261

T₁ = UTS x MWT

T₁ (kgf) = 2558

Calculating maximum tension at minimum temperature;

ΔT = T1 - T0

ΔT = -22.20

Weill Formula can be written as:

:CALCULATION:

Using Weil Equation:

T₂³+T₂²{(W2²*W1²*S²*E*A/24*T₁²)-T₁+A*E*C*(ΔT)}=W1²*S²*E*A/24

Solving for T₂;

__________
W2 = √(Ww)²+(W1)²
W1
Where;

Ww = PxD

Ww (kg/m) = 6.2832

W2 (kg/m) = 9.1872

T₁ = UTS x MWT

T₁ (kgf) = 2558

ΔT = T2 - T1

ΔT = 115.00

Weil Formula can be written as:

aT₂³+bT₂²+cT₂=d ---->>> equation A

Variables Coefficient
a= 1
b= {(W2²*W1²*S²*E*A/24*T₁²)+A*E*C*(ΔT)-T₁}
c= 0
d= W1²*S²*E*A/24

Substituting values to above coefficient gives:

Variables Coefficients
a= 1
b= 9663.32
c= 0
d= 575927047.31

Thus:

(1)T₂³+(9663.32)T₂²+(0)T₂=575927047.31

T₂²(T₂+9663.32) = 575927047.31 ---->>> equation B

By Trial and Error, find roots greater and less than as nearest as may be to Equation B

Hence;

if T₂ = 240; (240)²(240+9663.32)=570431232
if T₂ = 242; (242)²(242+9663.32)=580095160.5

By Interpolation;

240 -----------------> 570431232.00

240 - T₂ -5495815.31
240 - 242 T₂ -----------------> 575927047.31 -9663928.50

242 -----------------> 580095160.50

thus;

__240 - T₂__ = -5495815.31

240 - 242 -9663928.50

therefore;

T₂ = 241.137387411

:CALCULATION:

Using Weill Equation:

T₂³+T₂²{(W2²*S²*E*A/24*T₁²)-T₁+A*E*C*(ΔT)}=W1²*S²*E*A/24

Solving for T₂:

W2 = [(Ww)²+(W1)²]^0.5

Ww = P x D

Ww (kg/m) = 2.7144

W2 (kg/m) = 3.1139

T₁ = UTS x MWT

T₁ (kgf) = 2560

ΔT = T2 - T1

ΔT = 57.80

Weill Formula can be written as:

aT³+bT²+cT=d

Variables Coefficient
a= 1
b= {(W2²*S²*E*A/24*T₁²)+A*E*C*(ΔT)-T₁}
c= 0
d= W1²*S²*E*A/24

Using Goal Seek of Excel to find T₂ (See table 1 for procedure)

Variables Coefficient
a= 1
b= 28971.79
c= 0
d= 4.32E+10

For Initial assumption, set T₂ = 0

if T₂ (kgf) = 1196.2878055262 --->> set to "0 (zero)"

d= 0.00E+00
Therefore:

CALCULATION

Using Weill Formula to determine the working Tension (T₂);

T₂³+T₂²{(W2²*S²*E*A/24*T₁²)-T₁+A*E*C*(ΔT)}=W1²*S²*E*A/24

Solving for Wind Pressure (P);

wind pressure (P) = 0.0025V² ; where V = mph

240kph
mph = = 149.16
1.609

with an effectiveness factor of 0.6

wind pressure (P) = (0.6)(0.0025)(149.16)^2

Therefore, the wind Pressure = 33.37 lb./ft² = 162.86 kg./m²

if the resultant Wind Load (W2) is given by;

W2 = [(Ww)²+(W1)²]^0.5

where;

Ww = PxD

therefore;

Ww = 4.5210 kg/m

thus;
 W2 = 4.7729 kg/m

Solving for T₁;

T₁ = UTS x MWT = 5120

for Modulus of Elasticity (if unknown);

Use the formula;

E= E (al.) * (AL/A) + E (st.) * (AS/A)

where ;

E (al.) = 6300 ---->>> approximate for all aluminum stranding

E (st.) = 19334 ---->>> for single-core steel strand

18983 ---->>> for 19-strand steel strand
18631 ---->>> for 7-strand steel strand

for Coefficient of Linear Expansion (if unknown);

Use the formula;

C= C (al.) * (E (al.)/E) * (AL/A) + C (st.) * (E (st.)/E) * (AS/A)

where;

C (al.) = 0.0000205 ---->>> approximate for all aluminum stranding

C (st.) = 1.90E-06 ---->>> approximate for steel stranding

hence;

C= 1.53E-05 /°C

CASE I:

at maximum (final) temperature;

ΔT = T2 - T0

ΔT = 57.8 °C

using Weill Formula;

T₂³+T₂²{(W2²*S²*E*A/24*T₁²)-T₁+A*E*C*(ΔT)}=W1²*S²*E*A/24

Coeffient of Weill Formula can be written as;

a= 1
b= (W2²*S²*E*A/24*T₁²)-T₁+A*E*C*(ΔT)
c= 0
d= W1²*S²*E*A/24

thus;

a= 1
 b= 12926.8072
c= 0
d= 40532526133

also by inspection, Weill Formula can be written as;

(a)T₂³+(b)T₂² = (d)

hence;

T₂³+T₂²(12926.8072) = 40532526133

solving the equation by Trial and Error;

if;

T₂ = 1600 ; (1600)²(1600+12926.8072) = 37188626432

T₂ = 1700 ; (1700)²(1700+12926.8072) = 42271472808

by Interpolation;

1600 ---->>>> 37188626432

1600 - T₂ -3343899701
T₂ ---->>>> 40532526133
-100 -5082846376
1700 ---->>>> 42271472808

1600 - T₂ -3343899701
=
-100 -5082846376

T₂ = 1665.7879 kgf.

therefore, the maximum sag at minimum tension at maximum temperature for 350 m span is;

Sag (m) = T2/W2*(cosh(W2*S/2*T2)-1)

Sag (m) = 44.8011

CASE II:

solving for maximum tension at minimum (worst) temperature, repeating the above steps;

ΔT = T1 - T0

ΔT = -22.2 °C

therefore;

T₂ = 1338.4748 kgf.

Test if comply to assign safe working Tension;

thus;

1944
= x 100% = 15.18 < 40 ; hence OK

CALCULATION

Using Weill Formula;

T₂³+T₂²{(W2²*S²*E*A/24*T₁²)-T₁+A*E*C*(ΔT)}=W1²*S²*E*A/24

Solving for P;

Assume a maximum gust wind of 275kph, which is generally considered to be on the conservative side,
because most of the time typhoon ussually reduces strength when approaches to land mass;

275 kph
The design equivalent gust wind = = 185 kph = 115 mph
1.5

since, wind pressure = 0.0025V² ; where V = mph

with an effectiveness factor of 0.6

the wind pressure = (0.6)(0.0025)(115)^2

Therefore, the wind Pressure = 19.74 lb./ft² ≈ 96.33 kg./m²

if;

W2 = [(Ww)²+(W1)²]^0.5

Ww = PxD

Ww = 1.7617 kg/m

threfore;

W2 = 1.8913 kg/m
Solving for T₁;

T₁ = UTS x MWT = 2558

for Young's Modulus of Elasticity (if unknown)

Use formula;

E= E (al.) * (AL/A) + E (st.) * (AS/A)

where ;

E (al.) = 6300 ---->>> approximate for all aluminum stranding

E (st.) = 19334 ---->>> for single-core steel strand

18983 ---->>> for 19-strand steel strand
18631 ---->>> for 7-strand steel strand

Therefore;

E= 8023 kg/mm²

for Coefficient of Linear Expansion (if unknown)

Use formula;

C= C (al.) * (E (al.)/E) * (AL/A) + C (st.) * (E (st.)/E) * (AS/A)

where;

C (al.) = 0.0000205 ---->>> approximate for all aluminum stranding

C (st.) = 0.0000019 ---->>> approximate for steel stranding

Therefore;

C= 0.00001444 /°C

Using above Weill Formula;

T₂³+T₂²{(W2²*S²*E*A/24*T₁²)-T₁+A*E*C*(ΔT)}=W1²*S²*E*A/24

find the minimum working Tension (T₂) at maximum temperature (final);

ΔT = T2 - T0

ΔT = 57.8 °C

Coeffient of Weill Formula can be written as;

a= 1
b= (W2²*S²*E*A/24*T₁²)-T₁+A*E*C*(ΔT)
c= 0
d= W1²*S²*E*A/24

thus;

a= 1
 b= -701.1530
c= 0
d= 435204717.6

substituting coefficient to above Weill Formula gives;

T₂³+T₂²(-701.1530) = 435204717.6

so as;

T₂²(T₂-701.1530) = 435204717.6

solving the equation by Trial and Error;

if;

T₂ = 1070 ; (1070)²(1070-701.1530) = 422292930.3

T₂ = 1085 ; (1085)²(1085-701.1530) = 451874284.6

by Interpolation;

1070 ---->>>> 422292930.3

1070 - T₂ -12911787.7
T₂ ---->>>> 435204718
-15 -29581354.7
1085 ---->>>> 451874285

1070 - T₂ -12911787.7
=
-15 -29581354.7

T₂ = 1076.5472 kgf.

therefore, the maximum sag at minimum tension at maximum teperature for 350 m span is;

Sag (m) = T2/W2*(cosh(W2*S/2*T2)-1)

Sag (m) = 3.1652

solving for maximum tension at minimum (worst) temperature, repeating the above steps;

ΔT = T1 - T0

ΔT = -27.2 °C

therefore;

T₂ = 2640.9285

Test if comply to assign safe working Tension;

thus;

2640.9285
= x 100% = 41.3 < 40 ; hence OK

:CALCULATION:

Using Weill Equation:

T₂³+T₂²{(W2²*S²*E*A/24*T₁²)-T₁+A*E*C*(ΔT)}=W1²*S²*E*A/24

Solving for T₂:

W2 = [(Ww)²+(W1)²]^0.5

Ww = P x D

Ww (kg/m) = 2.0141

W2 (kg/m) = 2.1297

T₁ = UTS x MWT

T₁ (kgf) = 2480

ΔT = T2 - T1

ΔT = 67.80

Weill Formula can be written as:

aT³+bT²+cT=d

Variables Coefficient
a= 1
b= {(W2²*S²*E*A/24*T₁²)+A*E*C*(ΔT)-T₁}
c= 0
d= W1²*S²*E*A/24

Using Goal Seek of Excel to find T₂ (See table 1 for procedure)

Variables Coefficient
a= 1
b= 373.64
c= 0
d= 4.47E+08

For Initial assumption, set T₂ = 0

if T₂ (kgf) = 658.4441 --->> set to "0 (zero)"

d= 3.28E-04
Therefore:

T₂ (kgf)= 658.4441

:CALCULATION:

Using Weill Equation:

T₂³+T₂²{(W2²*S²*E*A/24*T₁²)-T₁+A*E*C*(ΔT)}=W1²*S²*E*A/24

Solving for T₂:

W2 = [(Ww)²+(W1)²]^0.5

Ww = P x D

Ww (kg/m) = 4.5214

W2 (kg/m) = 4.7733

T₁ = UTS x MWT

T₁ (kgf) = 5120

ΔT = T2 - T1

ΔT = 57.80

Weill Formula can be written as:

aT³+bT²+cT=d

Variables Coefficient
a= 1
b= {(W2²*S²*E*A/24*T₁²)+A*E*C*(ΔT)-T₁}
c= 0
d= W1²*S²*E*A/24

Using Goal Seek of Excel to find T₂ (See table 1 for procedure)

Variables Coefficient
a= 1
b= 12929.20
c= 0
d= 4.05E+10

For Initial assumption, set T₂ = 0

if T₂ (kgf) = 1666.4421 --->> set to "0 (zero)"

d= 0.00E+00
Therefore:

T₂ (kgf)= 1666.4421

Using Weill Equation:

T₂³+T₂²{(W2²*S²*E*A/24*T₁²)-T₁+A*E*C*(ΔT)}=W1²*S²*E*A/24

Solving for T₂:

W2 = [(Ww)²+(W1)²]^0.5

Ww = P x D

Ww (kg/m) = 4.5279

W2 (kg/m) = 4.7898

T₁ = UTS x MWT

T₁ (kgf) = 5120

ΔT = T2 - T1

ΔT = 67.80
