The differences between TWO unequal towers 60 m support a transmission line conductor at road crossing. The given span length is 499.5 m as show in Figure Q4(a). If the tension in the conductor is 1700 kg, determine the minimum clearance of the conductor and road and clearance mid-way between the supports. Weight of conductor is 1-5 kg/m. Bases of the towers can be considered to be at road level. Given height of the tower A is 35 m from the ground level.

Question
Q4(a) The differences between TWO unequal towers 60 m support a
transmission line conductor at road crossing. The given span length is
499.5 m as show in Figure Q4(a). If the tension in the conductor is
1700 kg, determine the minimum clearance of the conductor and road
and clearance mid-way between the supports. Weight of conductor
is 1-5 kg/m. Bases of the towers can be considered to be at road level.
Given height of the tower A is 35 m from the ground level.
Span Length= 499.5
