Survey Point Clearance Criteria

Danger Tree Locator Criteria

LC WC Weather Case Cable

# # Description Condition
-----------------------------------

Survey Point Clearance and Danger Tree Locator functions are considering a
Continuous Range
of wind values from left blowout to right blowout.

Survey Point Clearance functions are treating points with insufficient vertical
clearance but
adequate horizontal clearance as questionable violations and flagging them with
blue markers
in graphics views and a blue "??" in reports.

Galloping Criteria
Weather case for swing angle: 0 Creep RS
Weather case for sag: : 0 Creep RS
Galloping amplitude safety factor (multiplies major axis for all methods): 1.00
Required separation between ellipses: 0.00 (m)
Checking single loop (Davison)
Checking double loop (Toye)

Note that any given galloping ellipse is only checked against other ellipses that
share the same start and stop structures (those that do not will be marked as
N/A below).

Weight spans calculated by exact method using catenary in blown out plane
