Where span length exceeds 150m, a span reduction factor (SRF) shall be applied. This must be
determined in accordance with HB C(b)1.
6.
POLES
6.1
General
Poles shall be selected such that the static (permanent) and dynamic (wind) load combination is
within safe limits.
The Stobie Pole consists of two rolled steel sections tapered from a closed spacing at the top to a
maximum spacing just below the top of the footing and reducing to a minimum spacing at the
bottom. The space between the sections is filled with concrete and the steel sections are tied
together through concrete with bolts spaced at suitable intervals.
The steel sections are considered to carry the full bending and compressive loads. The concrete
and bolts provide restraint against buckling of the steel section under compressive load. The bolts
also serve to transmit shear loads from the steel to the concrete.
6.2
Design Information
Strength in the strong direction is limited to a maximum of 4.5 times the weak direction strength.
Wind forces shall be selected accordingly to the worst terrain category likely during the design life
of the pole. If the wind load exceeds the weak direction strength by more than 50% then these
poles shall be temporarily guyed if the conductors are not strung.
Steel sections used are current production structural shapes to AS3678 and the steel rolled to
AS3679 - Grade 250 (Corresponding to 250Mpa ultimate yield stress).
Designations are: Tapered Flange Beams (TFB)
Universal Beams (UB)
Universal Columns (UC)
Top of footing level is nominally 150mm below ground level. In built up areas and in underground
work, the footing level may be 300mm below ground level.
6.3
Pole Selection
Poles are commonly described by the duty they perform. They can be termed line, angle, deadend, brace and transformer poles. Each individual pole must be examined in relation to its duty to
determine that a pole of adequate strength in strong and weak directions is used without the use
of guy wires.
TS-107

Page 7 of 38
All wind loads in Pa, working load
6.4
Loading Parameters on Poles
In addition to the above, the combined loading (K) of the pole should not exceed the factor given
in the table below.
The combination loading (K) is expressed as:
K
Where,
fs = applied load in strong direction

Fs = poles design strength in strong direction
fw = applied load in weak direction
Fw = poles design strength in weak direction
K Factors shall be selected from the following table-2.

Where conductors provide constraint for a dead-end pole, ie at tee-off positions, the wind on
the pole concrete face and tee-off conductor span may be reduced by up to 50% (depending on
the level of constraint) when calculating fw. Strengths of commonly used poles are listed in
Appendix B.
6.5
Longitudinal Wind
The assessment of the pole strength for wind blowing along the line is a difficult assessment and
generally beyond the scope of a basic design process. The significance of the along line wind will
depend on the location of the pole, the size of the pole and along line stiffness of the poles and
conductor. Many Stobie poles will not be self-supporting and will require the interaction with the
conductor to be structurally adequate.
Experience gained on transmission lines built throughout South Australia over a 50 year period
has demonstrated good performance for wind along the line using the standard methods of
design provided the crossarms and extension pieces are capable of resisting some basic
longitudinal loads generated by wind on the pole. However, this does not guarantee that the
same level of security has been achieved in the transverse and longitudinal direction for all poles.
As a minimum, it is recommended that for poles over 12 m total length where the wind on the
pole exceeds the capacity, a longitudinal load equivalent to 50% of the published SA Power
Networks load (working) on the pole is a minimum design load to be resisted by any component
connecting the pole to the conductors.
TS-107

Page 8 of 38
The design loadings reflected to the pole top in both strong and weak direction, should not
exceed the strength of the pole in either direction.
This load should be shared between each of the conductors. This along line load is not required
to be applied to the pole to determine adequacy in the direction along the line. For poles where
the conductor does not deviate, the pole capacity need only be checked against strength in the
transverse (strong) direction provided the ratio of strong to weak strength does not exceed 4.5 to
1.
The designer should give individual consideration to every pole and make some assessment on
the effect of wind in the direction along the line and how the pole is supported. Use of a previous
successful standard pole/conductor/crossarm/span length arrangement is considered a
reasonable assessment criterion for a basic line design. SA Power Networks may request that the
design is given a more sophisticated assessment by an independent designer.
6.6
Standard Location of Poles

Poles shall be located in positions which meet the requirements of Network Directive ND-P1
(re-printed in Appendix C)
7.
FOOTINGS
7.1
General
Poles shall be selected such that they can withstand loads without the assistance of guy wires.
The footing selection shall also be based on the correct assessment of the soil type.
7.2
Soil Types
Soils are grouped into three classes, A, B, and C as follows;
Class A
Gravel, compacted sand and rock soils not subject to large variations in volume with
moisture content, which offer appreciable resistance to boring and which remain
stable after boring.
Note: If the excavation is in rock, the hole should be just large enough to take the
pole at the recommended depth, and no reinforcement is necessary in the concrete.
7.3
Class B
Soils subject to large variations in volume with changing moisture content. Soils
which offer little cohesion, ie clay.
Class C
Low bearing soil. Requires caisson to support sides during excavation. Examples are
swamps, saturated soil and drift sands.
Footing Types
The footing type shall be selected from the SA Power Networks Construction Manual (Drawing E1800 series). Alternative footing arrangements may be used if certified by an appropriately
qualified civil engineer.
The types are:
1. Full strength
a. In Situ
b. Two Block
c. Cylindrical
d. Deep Type
2. Unformed Footings
The Unformed footing is acceptable where it can be certified by an appropriately qualified
civil engineer that loads on the pole will not exceed the strength of the pole and cause
movement.
An unformed footing may be used when :
a. a pole is not to be loaded at more than 50% of its strong direction strength, or
b. exceed half the design factor, ie 1.5 for terminal pole equates to 0.75.
An unformed footing may NOT be used when for a terminal pole.
TS-107

Page 9 of 38
7.4
Materials
A reinforcing cage must be used for all transmission poles.
7.5
Formers
Formers shall be used for cored footings. Formers are numbered on size order from 0 to U5,
where 0 is the smallest. Refer to SA Power Networks WC series drawings for former dimensions.
7.6
Footing Orientation
All pole footings shall be orientated correctly in relation to the centre line of the mains, and shall
be positioned so that the pole will have the direction of the resultant forces acting along the
strong direction of the pole.
8.
CONDUCTORS
8.1
Definitions for Conductor Tensions

Sustained Load means the tension in the conductor and applied to the pole at a temperature
which is the mean of the winter season. This load is considered to be applied with no wind.

a. A conductor temperature equal to the average minimum winter temperature in still air
conditions (+ 1 deg C), or
b. A conductor temperature of +15 deg C with the maximum wind pressure on the projected
area of the conductor.

100C -
TS-107
all 66kV lines, unless otherwise specified.

Page 10 of 38
Concrete for footings shall have a minimum compressive strength of 12 MPa at 7 days and
20 MPa at 28 days.
General
Vibration induced into the line shall be limited by careful selection of a tension at which the
conductor operates for the majority of its design life to ensure that the fatigue endurance limit of
the conductor wires is not reached.
8.3
Tension
The design conductor tension under the everyday load condition is that the horizontal tension
shall be no greater than the percentage of its calculated breaking load as derived from HB C(b)1.
Under the short duration load, the tangential tension in the conductor should not exceed 50% of
its calculated breaking load.
It must be stressed that this is a maximum tension which should be used to avoid damage to the
conductor over its expected service life. Lesser tensions may be used accordingly to pole
capacities or other considerations. Design constants for bare conductors are contained in
Appendix A
8.4
Side Swing
All designs must include a check to ensure that the conductor will not swing, under the influence
of wind, outside the requirements of the Electricity Act and Regulations. This design shall be
checked at the conditions stated in clause 2 and 3, eg for rural application in terrain category 2,
- T50 + 500pa wind.
8.5
Measurements of As-Built Condition

SA Power Networks Compliance Inspector shall have at all reasonable times access to the work
site, and shall have the power at all reasonable times, to inspect, examine, and test materials and
workmanship of the works during its manufacture or installation.
Measurement Sheets are to be completed by the Contractor throughout the progress of the
works. The Measurement Sheets shall be submitted with the Certificate of Practical Completion.
Measurement Sheets shall be in accordance with Appendix E. Where tests are performed i.e.
earth stake resistance readings, they shall be recorded in accordance with the Testing Standard
(TS 105) and submitted with the Certificate of Practical Completion.

9.5
Corrosion Zones and High Pollution Zones

Standards for 11, 33 & 66 kV constructions in corrosion zone areas and high pollution areas may
vary from those standards that generally apply. These variations of standards can be found
throughout the E drawings, eg E1017, HV Insulators, in the Overhead Construction E drawing
manual. Other construction drawings show alternatives for high corrosion/pollution.
The locations of the States corrosion zones are shown in Appendix F, the Atmospheric Corrosion
Map of South Australia. Note, the areas defined as Very Severe Zones are regarded as the SA
Power Networks Corrosion Zone Areas.
The pollution zones of the State are the same as the corrosion zones, plus, lines constructed near
the coast* and any area subject to heavy atmospheric contamination. This map is intended to
illustrate general areas that may be prone to corrosion or pollutants. Where additional areas are
known to be corrosive or have high pollution due to local conditions, appropriate construction
standards must be specified. All designs of overhead constructions for corrosion or high pollution
zones must specify the appropriate standards.
* The depth of the pollution zone from the coast varies (refer to the E drawings), but the
minimum depth is 1 km.
9.6
High Load Corridors

New overhead road crossings (including services) must be erected so as not to compromise
existing clearances along high load corridors. Refer to the Transport SA maps in Appendix G for
the location of Principle Routes for Over dimensional Loads and contact the High Load Officer,
George Hudson, for further details.

Notes:
1. Values taken from AS1531 - 1991, Table 3.2
2. Conductor Loads in Column 9 and 10 are the result of conductor load + wind load on projected area. W100 for 100 pascal wind and W500 for 500 pascal wind
3. C1 =
and C2 =
; are conductor constants used in temperature change calculations. Where, E = Final modulus of Elasticity, A = Cross sectional
area and a = Coefficient of Linear Expansion
