Bibliography

Describes requirements for precast concrete poles (also commonly called masts) (either all of a piece or composed of elements), reinforced and/or prestressed as structural elements; they may be hollow or solid and may receive or include additional components (e.g. cross-arms, platforms etc.), inserts and connectors. Additional elements may be connected to pole elements.

This document specifies requirements for precast concrete poles (also commonly called masts) (either all of a piece or composed of elements), reinforced and/or prestressed as structural elements; they may be hollow or solid and may receive or include additional components (e.g. cross-arms, platforms etc.), inserts and connectors. Additional elements may be connected to pole elements.

Structures made from such elements in mono- or multi-legged form may be used for :

  • overhead electrical lines ;

  • telecommunication lines ;

  • overhead electrical lines for railways, trams and similar ;

  • supports for lighting ;

  • supports for loudspeaker installation ;

  • antenna and telecommunication poles ;

  • supports for wind turbines ;

  • and similar installations.

This document does not cover lighting columns for use in traffic circulation areas.
