ISO 15206:2010 specifies the requirements for grading, test methods, determination of characteristic values, methods of specifying durability and sizes of single poles manufactured from solid timber for telecommunications and electrical distribution purposes, either preservative treated or untreated, under cantilever or compression loading. It specifies the methods of measuring the sizes of solid wood poles for overhead transmission and telecommunication lines and permissible deviations that are taken into account for the acceptance of the poles; the requirements for handling and the characteristics for visual strength grading of softwood and hardwood poles, as well as the marking requirements; the methods of test to determine characteristic values for modulus of elasticity and bending strength of any population of wood poles and moisture content of solid wood poles; the requirements for durability and preservative treatment of wood poles. It is applicable to both softwood and hardwood poles.

Prepared by the Task Committee on Wood Pole Structures for Electrical Transmission Lines of the Committee on Electrical Transmission Structures of the Structural Engineering Institute of ASCE. Wood Pole Structures for Electrical Transmission Lines: Recommended Practice for Design and Use, MOP 141, provides comprehensive knowledge of the principles and methods for the design and use of wood poles for overhead utility line structures. The use of wood pole structures, properly designed utilizing consistent structural engineering principles, may provide a simple, cost effective, and more resilient option than some of the other pole materials commonly used. This manual examinesStructural configurations and pole applications;Critical factors and design considerations specific to wood pole structures;Mechanical properties, applicable standards and specifications used to manufacture wood poles;Wood pole foundations and anchoring;Construction of wood pole structures; andInspection and maintenance of wood pole structures and lines. This Manual of Practice will be valuable to engineers involved in utility, electrical, and structural engineering.
