Technical Report Archive and Image Library
The Technical Report Archive & Image Library (TRAIL) identifies, acquires, catalogs, digitizes and provides unrestricted access to U.S. government agency technical reports. The mission of TRAIL is to ensure preservation, discoverability, and persistent open access to government technical publications regardless of form or format.
Chart related to conductor loading showing vertical, transverse and conductor loads in pounds per linear feet of conductor. It is enlarged from figures in NBS discussion of national electrical safety code (handbook H39).
Chart showing the ultimate resisting moments of wood poles based on the circumferences at ground line for different kinds of woods. It is enlarged from figures in NBS discussion of national electrical safety code (handbook H39).
Chart of catenary curve ordinates: "The curve gives approximate values of sag at all points on the catenary curve expressed in per cent of the center sag. The error is negligible for all spans in which the center sag is less than 10% of the span length." It is enlarged from figures in NBS discussion of national electrical safety code (handbook H39).
