In BSEN50341 the term section length is used, for reduction of wind loading. Is that length the sum of horizontal span lengths or inclined span lengths? There doesn't seem to be any definition in the standard. Thanks.

Section length is sum of spans between angle towers (Tension Towers). I am not sure about how it is related with wind loading.

Nitin, thanks for your response. Do you think it is the horizontal span lengths or inclined span lengths ie allowing for difference in elevation between pole locations?
