In which scenario might a push brace be applied?

A push brace is a structural component used to provide stability to aerial supports, particularly in cases where conventional braces might be insufficient. When applied at corner poles where an overhead guy is not effective, a push brace helps maintain the position and integrity of the pole. This is important because corner poles experience significant lateral forces that can lead to instability.

In scenarios such as level terrain or steep hillsides, different support methods may be more appropriate, and the need for a push brace would not be as critical. Similarly, while high winds can affect pole stability, it is the specific situation of corner poles without overhead guys where a push brace becomes particularly relevant, ensuring that the pole remains secure under the combined stresses of external forces.
