Slide 1.3 What is the Helipost? Corrosion and Abrasion Measures • Galvanized in accordance with ASTM-123 • Design corrosion rates conform with AASHTO & FHWA-RD-89-186 metal loss rates • Minimal abrasion in 50/6 soil (WSDOT) 4Fe+3O2+4H2+8H+= 2(Fe2O3•H2O)+2OH2O+8H+
Slide 2.1 Concrete vs. Helipost The Problems with Concrete: Complicated - Labor intensive and equipment heavy, with multiple crews necessary to complete the installation process. Expensive – Inefficiencies due to the common logistical challenges, materials, and equipment used for concrete installation add both time and money to the project costs Slow – The curing period required before concrete piers and anchors are ready to accept the above-ground unit adds days or weeks to project schedules.
Slide 2.2 Concrete vs. HelipostConcrete vs. Helipost Helipost Concrete
Slide 3.1 Common Helipost ApplicationsIntroduction: Helipost Applications • Sound walls and noise barriers • Solar panels (ground mounted) • Highway signs • Light posts • Security walls • Cell towers (mono pole) • Steel buildings • Billboards
Slide 3.2 Common Helipost ApplicationsPerformance Means Multiple Applications • Helipost delivers 20 tons of axial load, therefore: • Supports walls up to 30 feet • Supports high-mast lights up to 100 feet • Supports large exit signs and cantilever lights • Supports mono-pole cell towers • Anchors even large solar panels
