Improving creep resistance and durability forecasting of Balau wood–PGFRP composite cross-arms using sleeve retrofitting for transmission towers by Vijayvignesh Namasivayam Sukumaar, Mohamad Ridzwan Ishak, Noorfaizal Yidris, Norkhairunnisa Mazlan, Muhammad Asyraf Muhammad Rizal

“…Long-term prediction using Findley's power-law model revealed that the sleeve-reinforced cross-arm retained up to 85 % more stiffness after 50 years compared to the virgin composite and Balau wood counterparts. The proposed retrofitting method demonstrates significant potential for extending the service life of transmission tower cross-arms while enabling cost-effective maintenance and structural resilience.…”
