ABSTRACT:
A composite tubular tendon containing axial fibers and helical fibers laid on an inner liner is connected to a circular opening in a hollow termination body having an opposite curved end which is connected with an elongated member smaller than the termination body. The inner liner of the composite tubular tendon abuts the circular opening in the hollow termination body and fibers of the composite tubular tendon are extended over and cover the termination body from the point of abutment to the elongated member which is smaller than the termination body. The axial fibers of the composite tubular tendon are continued over the termination body in a geodesic path and the helical fibers are continued over the termination body in a helical path.
