Mechanical Properties Contrast Between Fiber Reinforced Composite Poles and Traditional Poles

Take advantages of concrete to improve the stiffness of fiber reinforced composite material(GFRP), reference to the existing dimensions of concrete-filled steel tube pole, applicate GFRP-concrete structure in 35 kV transmission line. Change the various parameters of the poles in ANSYS, compare the maximum deformations and the maximum stresses of GFRP tube-concrete pole and concrete-filled steel tube pole. Results show that different parameters have different impacts on the mechanical properties of the poles, suitable parameters of GFRP tube-concrete pole were got and the technical specifications of the application of GFRP in various voltage levels should be perfected.
