OCTAGONAL POLES
OCTAGONAL POLES
ROYAL INFRA uses high-strength sheet steel and can produce single-piece poles up to a length of 14
meters. The two shell halves are welded together with advanced systems and with automatic SAW
machines. The octagonal poles shafts are continuously tapered with single longitudinal welding & no
circumferential weld. The manufacturing facilities available allows production of single section of length
up to 14 meters, which can be galvanized through single dip process and guarantees great corrosion
resistance. X-ray, ultrasound, and surface-crack inspections ensure top material quality and help
maximize the life of ROYAL INFRA poles and masts.
Design
The Octagonal Poles are designed to withstand maximum wind speed as specified in IS 875. The top
loading area and the weight of fixtures are considered while calculating the maximum deflection of the
pole and to meet the requirement of BSEN 1993 – 1 – 9:2005 Fatigue.
Pole Shaft
The pole shafts have octagonal cross section and are continuously tapered with single longitudinal
welding. There is no circumferential welding. The welding of pole shaft is done by Submerged Arc
Welding (SAW) process. They are provided with rigid flange plate of suitable thickness with provision for
fixing 4 foundation bolts. This base plate is fillet welded to the pole shaft from inside and outside.
Door opening
The octagonal Poles have a door of approximate 500 mm length at the elevation of 500 mm from the
Base plate. The door is vandal resistant and weather proof to ensure safety of internal connections. The
door is flush with the exterior surface and has suitable locking arrangement. There is also a suitable
arrangement for earthling. The poles are adequately strengthened at the location of the door.
