Sag Tension Calculations, Temperature Changes
The article was informative, but not quite what I was looking for. It works great as an example of what I am looking for though; On page 25 of the PDF of the document above how did they calculate Table C.1? I have talked to numerous people that have zero clue how to calculate this by hand...- TechEagle

Sag Tension Equations when Temperature Changes
Hi, I need to figure out a what my cable will be doing in a worst case scenario when I know its sag/tension for a given design condition. I think this article would help, does anyone know where I can find it? 1979 "TECHNIQUE TO INCLUDE ELEVATED TEMPERATURE CREEP IN CONDUCTOR SAG-TENSION...- TechEagle
