The Design: Full-Scale Testing
This slide shows a chart of the deflection (X axis) as the tip load is applied (Y axis).
The yield point occurred just after the load exceeds the pole class load (2.95 kips),
and the ultimate failure – when the pole breaks – occurred at nearly 5 kips and 160%
of class load.
