	Concrete pylon - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Concrete pylons are manufactured as a rule in the concrete work and put up at the place of assembly.
		Concrete pylons are used in Germany normally only for lines with operating voltages below 30kV.
		In exceptional cases concrete pylons are used also for 110kV-lines, as well as for the public grid or for the railway traction current grid.

		Burton and five co-workers had positioned the pipe against a concrete wall to support an electrically-powered hydraulic ram that was used to push the fan into position onto the shaft.
		Evidence of concrete chipping was present by the location of marks in the wall where the supports were previously used to push the fan onto the shaft.
		The bar stock used between the concrete wall and the pipe; the pipe, and the steel plate used to support the 10 ton ram, were all bent and deformed indicating that a large load was imposed during the fan installation attempts.

	Sydney Harbour Bridge - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Although inserted into the designs for their aesthetic value, all four pylons have now been put to use: a museum and tourist centre with a lookout of the harbour is contained in the southeastern pylon.
		The southwestern pylon is used by the New South Wales traffic authority as a base for their CCTV cameras overlooking the bridge and the roads around that area.
		After the increase to $1, the concrete barrier on the Bridge separating the Bradfield Highway from the Cahill Expressway was increased in height, because of the large numbers of drivers crossing it illegally from lane 7 to 6, in order to avoid the toll.

	Cable-stayed bridges and more particularly to their pylons and stay cables - Patent 5197157
		In such assemblies, for the sake of the mechanical strength of the pylon, the simplicity of manufacture and even for aesthetic reasons, the stay cables are grouped in pairs extending obliquely downwards from the same vertical section of the pylon, on each side thereof in the longitudinal direction of the bridge.
		The zones in which their tensile forces are applied on the pylon are then offset transversely with respect to the longitudinal direction of the bridge, which leads to applying twisting torques on the pylons as well as to a questionable aesthetic appearance.
		4, the whole of piece 5 is embedded in the concrete forming the pylon 1 and the different twisted strands are mounted and individually anchored after manufacture of the pylon.

	Veterans’ Glass City Skyway Main Pylon Reaches Finished Height
		The 400-foot tall concrete pylon is the central structural element of the bridge.
		The pylon will be the second-tallest structure in Toledo and will not only be unique to Ohio, but also to the world.
		Other project milestones that are complete include: all foundation and pier work (bridge structure), all concrete segments for the main span and bridge approaches and all ramps.

	Cable Ready Maumee River crossing
		High performance concrete mixes, new post-tensioning practice, alternative girder erection techniques, and the debut of an innovative cable cradle system for an architectural pylon combine for a spectacle unfolding along Interstate 280 in Toledo, Ohio.
		Cast from high-strength concrete, the pylon will feature an endlessly changing array of colored lighting enclosed by glass — a signature product of a city known for companies like Libby Owens Ford and Owens-Illinois Inc. The latter company's headquarters building will remain the city's tallest structure — by a 60-ft. margin over the pylon.
		Such a condition is created as the cradles bear upon the pylon, which thereby carries the 42,000-ton weight of the main span unit.

		The stadium’s damper system disconnects the roof from the concrete support pylons so the roof structure is able to slide in the north-south direction during an earthquake.
		The system disconnects the roof from the concrete support pylons so that the roof structure is able to slide in the north-south direction.
		By disconnecting the heavy mass of the roof from the pylons, earthquake forces are greatly reduced.

	MDOT - US-41 / Sturgeon River
		It is comprised of five, riveted girder ribs that support a 45-foot-wide concrete deck.
		The asphalt-surfaced, concrete roadway is borne by the ribs through a series of wide-flange columns, which are braced laterally by steel plate diaphragms.
		Mounted on top of each arch pedestal is a decorative concrete pylon with stepped vertical planes.

		The TTR/MTR tower consisted of a freestanding, concrete pylon assembled from cylindrical, reinforced concrete pipe sections.
		Situated atop this column was a reinforced concrete platform, square in plan view, measuring 16-feet on each side.
		Surrounding this concrete structure was a separate, open "skeletal" framework of steel beams, resting on its own foundation footings, which supported walkways surrounding the top of the tower and a ladder.

		Plant the end straining post making sure that the earth is well rammed around the post or preferably embedded in large rubble or old bricks, but firm ramming is essential.
		Usually it is sufficient to ram the backstay straight into the ground, but when using concrete, Pylon or plastic-coated steel posts, the posts should be fixed in concrete.
		Concrete: use the eyebolt to hold the angle cleat to which the stretcher bar is connected, the line wire is stretched by tightening the nut on the eyebolt.

	Golden Spike Rant. Roadside America
		For many years a small, drab, concrete pylon marked the site -- nothing like the 56-foot-tall Golden Spike replica, relic of some forgotten movie promotion -- that casts a shadow of shame over Council Bluffs, Iowa -- eastern terminus of the Union Pacific's road and a city obviously IN BED with the Feds.
		The pylon has since been moved into nearby Strasburg, where it stands in Lions Park next to the monkey bars.
		Just a tiny park with a swing set on one end, the pylon on the other, and a lot of quiet pride and courage in between.

		By November 1981, the rebels changed their tactics, embarking on a widespread campaign of disruption of the economy, pulling down power pylons and blowing up bridges on main roads.
		In another case, the Army special forces and FMLN engaged in two hours of fighting around a school where 40 children were trapped: as in a miracle, not a single child was injured.
		It was not before July 1991, that the first concrete achievement of the peace process was reached, when the Government and the FMLN signed a broad human rights accord, setting out obligations for both sides in the conflict to avoid practices that endanger civilians.

		The advantage of this type of service mast versus one mounted through the roof is that if the mast deflects or is torn away, the roof is not damaged.
		FIGURE 6-4 This service mast is mounted on a concrete pylon.

		This collection of twenty-five stories should help renew the recognition enjoyed by Walpole in his own lifetime.
		As he said himself "...the creator who relies more upon the inference behind the fact than upon the fact itself, more upon the dream than the actual business, more upon the intangible world of poetry than upon the actual world of concrete evidence, this kind of creator will come into his kingdom again."
		The Collected Macabre Stories includes thirty-seven of Hartley's best tales, ranging from the well-known, traditional ghost stories 'The Cotillon' and 'Feet Foremost', through the dark humour of 'The Travelling Grave' and 'The Killing Bottle' to the Aickmanesque 'The Pylon'.
