ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a method and means for transferring a construction--consisting of an elongated article (2,21) provided with at least one termination (3,20,40)--between a vertical position and a horizontal position and vice versa. Handling means (10,22,31,44) are attached to the termination housing (3,20,40) so as to balance and handle the termination substantially at a combined center of gravity (14,26,34,45) and thereby prevent undue bending of the elongated article (2,21) during the transfer.
