To transfer loads from frame A to one end of the river to frame C at the other end, high
strength cables are used. When the load W is at a distance x1 = 10 m and x2 = 15 m, the sag
in the cable at B = 3 m.

strength of the cable is 195 kN?
2. What is the total length (m) of the
cable at the given location of the
load W?
3. Find the tension (kN) in the cable
of segment DC if W = 40 kN.
