Maximum allowable span wire sag between supports is 5 percent (5%) of the pole to pole span. Maximum sag is measured at the point of the greatest offset of the span wire from a line in the plane of the support poles drawn through the span wire suspension points. Spans supporting two signal heads or less shall not require tubular piping between the span wire mounting devices and the signal heads. ANSI O5.1 Class and material requirements for the poles shall be as specified in Section 710.8.1.

715.42.9 4-Pedestal Pole Signal Supports (Types E1, E2, and E3):

shaft. The shaft shal l be spun from one piece of seamless tubing. Aluminum Association Alloy 6063 (ASTM B221), having a nominal 0.125 in ch wall thickness and six (6) inch diameter at the base tapering to forty -two ( 42) inches diameter at the top which, after fabrication, shal l have a mechanical strength of not less than T6 temper. The shaft shall have no longitudinal welds and no circumferential welds, except those joining the shaft to the base. A handhole shall be provided near the base. The base shall be one -piece aluminu m casting, Aluminum Association T -6 Temper (ASTM B26). The base of adequate strength, shape, size and having a scalloped top flange, shall be secured to the lower end of the shaft by two continuous welds made by the metallic - arc-consumable -electrode -inert-gas-shielded process. The base shall telescope the shaft and one weld shall be on the inside of the base at the end of the shaft, while the other weld shall be on the outside at the top of the base. The two welds shall be not less than two ( 2) inches apart and the welded connection shall develop the design strength of the pole assembly. The base shall be provided with four holes to receive the anchor bolts and eight tapped holes for attaching the ornamental covers. Four removable bolt covers shall be provided with each base and each cover shall attach to the upright portion of the body of the base by means of two hex -head cap screws. Anchor bolts shall be fabricated from steel meeting the requirement of ASTM F1554, Grade 55. The threaded end of each anchor bolt shall be galvanized for a length sufficient to extend down through the grout and into the concrete foundation. Four galvanized nuts and washers or clips as required shall be furnished with each pole. The anchor bolts shall be capabl e of resisting, at yield strength stress, the bending moment of the shaft at its yield strength stress. Bolts, nuts and washers or clips shall be galvanized to meet ASTM A153. The shaft shall have a uniform polished finish. Each shaft shall be tire -wrap ped with a heavy water -resistant paper for protection during shipment and installation. 949 Two prints of shop drawings indicating the proposed dimensions and material specifications for each of the components involved shall be submitted by the Contractor for approval purposes within three weeks after the award of contract. These drawings will be reviewed by the Division at the earliest possible date and one print will be returned marked "Approved," or "Returned for Revisions as Noted." Eight sets of drawing s shall then be submitted for final approval. Appropriate action shall be taken by the Contractor after final approval to insure that the earliest possible erection of these items can be achieved. Resubmission of drawings to obtain final approval by the Division will not be considered as being just cause for delay in the completion of any contract.
