In the design of a guyed mast the design specification often imposes limits on the allowable deflection of the mast under wind and other lateral loads. While the deflected form of a mast depends on many different design parameters, the guy erection tensions form one of the simplest means of controlling the lateral displacements. The paper describes a procedure for calculating these tensions in the case of a mast required to have a specified set of displacements under a given set of lateral loads. It also discusses the case where specified deflections are not to be exceeded under a number of different loading conditions.
