I have assisted in the writing of a wood pole guy wire and anchor tension calculation program. The program allows the user to attach wires to a wood pole and attach a guy wire to an anchor and it calculates the guy wire tension plus anchor load.
I have a need to do calculations with loading due to equipment with a moment arm and I believe that I now have a statically indeterminate problem. Are there methods, other than finite element analysis, that can be used to solve this problem? The program is written in Excel VBA and uses a hand-calculation approach to calculating tensions.
Any help is appreciated.
