create a precise and stabilized length that is configured for the tensile member 39 s particular application application_number US 201715616385 A description a cable made according to the present invention will generally have a first termination on its first end and a second termination on its second end the first termination will have a first attachment reference u2014 such as the center axis of a first cross bore through the first termination the second termination will likewise have a second attachment reference u2014 such as the center axis of a second cross bore through the second termination returning to fig4 those skilled in the art will know that the parallel assembly of three cables will typically have a loading block 32 or analogous anchoring component on each end the example shown uses a large transverse pin joint to connect the terminations 36 to the loading block 32 for this particular installation there is a known distance between the pin joint axis on the loading block 32 shown and the pin joint axis on the loading block on the opposite end of the cables the cables must match this known distance in order to be correctly installed in other words the distance between the first and second attachment references on the cables must be equal to the known distance fig5 shows a synthetic cable assembly created by adding a termination 36 to each end of cable 10 the first termination is connected to static fixture 40.
