These poles are constructed en-tirely of structural steel shapes and are designed to followthe theoretical stresses and produce a pole of given strengthand stiffness, with a minimum amount of material. All ofthe material, except bolts and nuts, is galvanized by the hotprocess before shipment, and after all the shop work hasbeen done. The poles are all put together with bolts, andwere assembled at the site of the power transmission were made by Milliken Brothers, of New York.
