Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide an optical fiber testing method and an optical fiber winding device capable of appropriately reproducing the same lateral pressure and minute bending state in a test of an optical fiber as those in an optical cable.
In the optical fiber testing method according to the present invention, an optical fiber 51-2 of the second layer wound around a bobbin 12 is used as an object to be tested. Lateral pressure to the optical fiber 51-2 of the second layer is applied by an optical fiber 51-3 of the third layer. The lateral pressure is adjusted by a tension when the optical fiber 51-3 of the third layer is wound around the bobbin. In other words, since the lateral pressure is applied to the optical fiber to be tested from another optical fiber, the same lateral pressure and minute bending state as those in the optical cable can be reproduced.-

Abstract: In order to solve the foregoing problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a jig and a laying method capable of laying a branch wire which can avoid a contact with a house or passersby and eliminating an unbalanced load of a utility pole erected in a confined area.
According to the present invention, since a first member of the jig is connected to a distal end of the utility pole by an upper branch wire and a second member of the jig is connected to the ground by a lower branch wire perpendicular to the ground, the utility pole can be laid in a confined area while securing an attachment angle of the upper branch wire with respect to the utility pole and eliminating an unbalanced load of the utility pole. By securing an optimum separation distance between the utility pole and the lower branch wire, a risk of contact with a house or passersby can be reduced.-

Abstract: The present invention has an object of providing an arithmetic apparatus, a facility management method, and a program that make it possible to acquire current tension applied to outdoor structures in a short period of time and make a bearing determination. The arithmetic apparatus according to the present invention calculates the dip degree of a cable and a distance between poles from the 3D model data of the cable according to Math. C1 and calculates the tension of each cable between the poles from the dip degree, the distance between the poles, and the weight of the cable per unit length according to Math. C2 (when no wind blows) or Math. C4 (when wind blows). Further, the arithmetic apparatus according to the present invention calculates a combined load obtained by converting the tension and the load of the accessory of the poles into an arbitrary position on the poles according to Math. C3.
