"An important problem concerning electric power lines is the calculation of the maximum sag occurring when there is an ice load on only one span. The object of this thesis is to determine a practical method for calculating the maximum sag of a transmission line, suspended on suspension insulators, with the aforementioned loading conditions. This paper is limited to the case where the supports of the transmission line are at equal elevations and all span lengths are equal" – Introduction, p. 1.
