E.B. Horsman Pole Information
Lighting poles, also known as street light poles or lamp posts, are structures designed to support lighting fixtures for illuminating outdoor spaces such as streets, highways, parks, parking lots, and other public areas. They provide a means to distribute light effectively and ensure visibility during nighttime hours, enhancing safety and security.
Construction:
Lighting poles are typically made of durable materials such as steel, aluminum, or concrete. Steel poles are commonly used due to their strength and resistance to harsh weather conditions. Aluminum poles offer lightweight options and are corrosion-resistant. Concrete poles provide stability and durability.
HEIGHT
The height of lighting poles varies depending on the application and the area to be illuminated. Common heights range from 10 to 50 feet (3 to 15 meters) or even higher for specialized applications like highways or sports fields.
DESIGN
Lighting poles come in various designs and styles, including straight or tapered poles with different shapes at the top, such as round, square, or decorative designs. The design may also include brackets or arms to hold lighting fixtures.
Mounting Options
Lighting poles can be mounted in different ways, including direct burial in the ground, base plate mounting on concrete foundations, or anchor bolt mounting. The mounting method depends on factors such as soil conditions, wind load requirements, and pole height.
