Description:
Precast poles can be either prestressed-spun or steel reinforced, and are commonly used for street lighting, and power and communication transmission.
Advantages:
- Superior structural outcome
- Quality produced Off-site manufacture means high quality
- Durable
– High strength, factory produced, long life prestressed concrete offers the ultimate outcome with minimal maintenance - High load capacity
- Reduction in formwork and propping
- A sustainable solution
– Significant sustainability advantages through de-materialization - Resistant to chloride-induced corrosion of the reinforcement
- Faster construction time
– Quick installation by highly skilled crews
– Less weather dependent - Simplified and safer construction process
– Less trades on site
– Less exposure to OHS and industrial relations risks
– Less waste
– Less materials handling - High quality surface finishes.
