F. Pole Material: The pole shaft shall be tapered tubular
• steel with galvanized coating. All connections of pole
sections shall be by slip fitting the top section over
the lower section by a length of at least two (2)
diameters. From not less than 18" above the surface
and continuing into the ground, the pole base shall be
constructed of concrete with steel reinforcement.
•
G. Foundation Strength: Any concrete portions of the pole
in which steel components that provide tension strength
are contained shall be allowed to harden for a minimum
of twenty-eight (28) days before stress loads of pole
attachment are applied.

Concrete base shall be formed with concrete that
• obtains 9500 PSI and containing pre -stressed steel
cable that is stressed to 28,910 lbs. Steel
reinforcement within the concrete shall be protected
from slippage and exposure to oxidation through voids
in the concrete or exposure of the steel through porous
concrete material.

H. The design criteria for these Specifications are based
on soil conditions with 2000 PSF or greater lateral
load. City will provide soil sample - Contractor to
give suggestion of what to do. The Owner shall then be
responsible and absorb the cost to provide:
•
1. Adequate pole bases for soil conditions less than
2000 PSF.
2. Excavation and removal of materials other than
normal soils, such as rock, caliche, etc.
• I. Structural:
1. There shall be no flat surfaces adjacent to any
portion of the steel tube of the pole wherein
moisture could be retained either on the exterior
• or the interior or the pole.
2. Where the base of the steel pole joins with the
concrete there shall be not less than a 2" drain
hole in the concrete base to avoid water
accumulation inside the pole. All potential water
• retainage surfaces shall be sloped to the drain
hole.
J. Pole Installation: The Contractor shall supply name of
a facility and contact person for a minimum of one (1)
athletic facility in which they have set poles. Pole
• erection may be subbed out to installer if the
Contractor has no previous experience in the setting
poles for athletic fields.

1. Backfill:
•
a. The pole base shall be installed in an
excavation as prescribed by the Broms
standards for foundation design. Concrete
backfill is required.
• b. Subject to Owner's approval, surplus material
shall be uniformly spread at the site or
removed and disposed of at Contractor's
expense.
Care shall be taken that the spreading of
• surplus material does not result in the
channeling of run-off water past pole
locations.
K. All fasteners, latches, hinges, and threaded devices
are to be of stainless steel construction and shall be
• clear thermoset polymer coated.
L. Each lighting structure is to be equipped with a
completed electrical system branch circuit that
includes the following:
• 1. A thermal magnetic breaker/disconnect.
2. Landing lugs for the feeder circuit as a part of
the disconnecting device.
3. Individual fusing for each load carrying conductor
• in each lamp circuit. (Neutral conductors are not
fused).
4. All feeder circuits are to be completed in the
factory from the breaker to the lamp with plug-in
or landing lug connections for all field assembly.

5. A wire harness is to be provided with plug-in
connections from the lower electrical component
enclosure to the lamp plug-in. The wire harness
must use continuous intertwined twisting of the
conductors to avoid excessive stress on individual
conductors. The wiring harness is to be mylar
wrapped to prevent unraveling and is to be
provided with kellum grips attached and tied for
mounting the wires inside the pole.
6. The fixture assembly is to be completely wired, by
the manufacturer providing the warranty, to a
plug-in connection with all individual lamp
40 circuits labeled consistent with a schematic
provided on the inside of the electrical component
enclosure box door.
7. There is to be system and equipment grounding
throughout the pole and structure for connection
to ground rods and feeder circuit ground wires.
8. All electrical components on the lighting
structure, except the lamps, are to be enclosed in
a NEMA 3R enclosure mounted not less than 8' above
the ground. The entire Lighting -Structure shall
be UL listed as a system in addition to using UL
listed components.
