C-TrussTM for Transmission Poles
C2-TrussTM for Distribution Poles

The range of C2-Truss sizes exceeds the code strength requirements for most distribution size poles. The largest C2 has a theoretical strength of 71,000 ft-lb. Poles that require greater strength can be restored with the C-Truss or double trusses.
