the engineering called for 8" sch 80... and some super strong rebar in the base. i subbed out the mount so dont have all the details easily accessible... but if i recall, the hole is like 6' deep and 5 feet square. it seemed inadequate to me, but it was engineered, so i guess good to go. todd On Tuesday, November 13, 2012 4:57pm, "Ray Walters" <[email protected]> said:
Thanks for the pitch info, very helpful. Are you using a heavy wall thickness on the pole? I thought with DP &W we could only go 6 ft out of the ground without increasing the pole size or adding bracing.
