1101.01GENERAL REQUIREMENTS —Design, manufacture, and test lighting material and equipment
according to the latest applicable standards of IEEE, ASTM , NEMA, ANSI, and the currently adopted AASHTO “ LRFD Specifications for Structural Supports for Highway Signs, Luminaires and Traffic Signals” (AASHTO Specifications). Fabricate highway lighting structural materials according to AWS, the AASHTO Specifications, and as specified in Section 1105 (steel members only); except, applying water to the base metal is allowed for the air plasma arc cutting process. Bulletin 15 listing, shop inspection, and AWS certified welding inspectors
iron poles, painting of aluminum poles, or poles without welds on any areas subject to tensile stress. Design calculations are required for all poles. Submit design calculations and fatigue analysis within 60 days of contract award, or as directed. If the Bureau of Design and Delivery has previously approved identical lighting material and equipment, submission of design calculations and fatigue analysis may not be required. Provide calculations signed and sealed by a Professional Engineer registered in Pennsylvania. Provide steel poles that are fabricated from material according to the current AASHTO Specifications. The Charpy V -Notch toughness test is required for load carrying tension members 1/2 inch and greater in thickness, including base plates and arm connection plates, as required for Zone 2 in Table S1 according to AASHTO Specifications. The Charpy V -Notch toughness test is not required for high mast handhole frames. Bend testing is required for material less than 1/2 inch in thickness. Provide steel poles that are either round or multisided with a minimum of eight sides. Use radiographic test methods when inspecting complete penetration welds on steel poles with material less than 5/16 inch in thickness, and use radiographic or ultrasonic test methods when inspecting complete penetration welds on steel poles with material 5/16 inch in thickness and greater. Perform and evaluate all non-destructive testing according to cyclically loaded, non- tubular tension criteria. Use radiographic, ultrasonic, or magnetic particle test methods when inspecting other welds on steel poles. Provide aluminum poles that are round. Provide aluminum welds and aluminum welding material according to ANSI/AWS D1.2, Structural Welding Code for Aluminum. Use radiographic test methods when inspecting complete- penetration welds on aluminum poles. Use radiographic or dye penetrant test methods when inspecting other welds on aluminum poles. Provid
