4 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What does a cable primarily transmit?
Think about the nature of a cable's flexibility.
What is the sag-to-span ratio?
Focus on how sag impacts the overall length.
What shape does a cable take when subjected to concentrated loads?
Think about the definition of configurations in loaded cables.
True or False: The thrust component of cable tension varies under vertical loads.
Recall how horizontal components behave in cables.
Analyze a cable with two concentrated loads placed at different intervals and sketch the resulting funicular polygon.
Consider how each load affects the cable's shape and forces.
Given a cable structure with a known span and sag, derive the relationships between tension and thrust using the appropriate equations.
Review the equations we discussed on sag and thrust.
