Composite utility pole (22) structures and methods of manufacture using a pultrusion process. The poles (22) may be N sided, with longitudinal pre- stressed rovings (58) in each corner. The inner periphery of the poles (22) may have flat regions (36) centrerd between the outside corners, with the fl at regions (36) joined by circular arcs (40) in the corner regions. Various pol e structures (22) and methods of manufacture are described, including curved poles, and poles having walls that are tapered in thickness and structure.</ SDOAB> |
