Experimental and numerical analysis of pGFRP and wood cross-arm in latticed tower: a comprehensive study of mechanical deformation and flexural creep

Experimental and numerical analysis of pGFRP and wood cross-arm in latticed tower: a comprehensive study of mechanical deformation and flexural creep

Abstract The adoption of pultruded glass fibre-reinforced polymer (pGFRP) composites as a substitute for traditional wooden cross-arms in high transmission towers represents a relatively novel approach. These materials were selected for their high strength-to-weight ratio and lightweight properties....
