Sumip fiberglass light poles are constructed of Polyester/Epoxy resin systems & fiberglass woven rowing with more than 65% of the reinforcing fiberglass in the axial vertical plane which increases desired rigidity & axial strength. Sumip light poles and round tapered poles are available with two base options, direct Burial type & Anchor base type. Â
- The surface will be free from crack or bubbles, damage, any exposed fiber & smooth surface shall be uniformly colored.
- The FRP pole will be finished uniform coating equal to the performance of the aliphatic polyurethane.
- Standards followed :
a. AASHTOLTS-4 : standard specification for structural support for highway sings, luminaries & traffic Signals.
b. ANSI C 136. 20-1990: Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic Lighting Pole.
C. IS 875 (part 3) 1987: Code of practice for design Loads for building & structures WIND LOAD. - The pole length lave a tolerance of not exceeding 0.3m. Per 10m.
- Deflection of the pole as per the AASHTO LTS- 4 shall not exceed a 15%(Depends upon requirement of the length of the pole above the ground line. When subject to maximum wind loading & shall not have more than 1% permanent deflection.
The poles are available with two types of Bases:
- Anchor type- This type is installed on ground using base plate and fittings
- Burial type- This type is installed on ground burying little bottom portion of the Pole with anti- rotating rods for proper fixing.
Both type of poles are available with different mounting type:
- Top Mount type
- Side Mount type
- Arm Mount type
