There are a lot of benefits that a high mast lighting pole has. High mast poles are not like any conventional lighting columns. These lighting poles have helped a lot in increasing the safety of the public space and living areas. A high masts height is also its unique feature making it a very useful lighting structure that can be used to satisfy a variety of purposes in the most cost effective way possible. These lighting poles are typically 12 meters to 40 meters high in order to distribute light to the areas they are expected to.
Because of such heights, they constantly face strong winds which easily knock them down. They are often seen being used in wide areas, such as ports, yards, stations, stadiums, airports, etc. We have been working with several clients on a variety of lighting projects from small to big scale ones. For more than 10 years operating, we have accumulated quite a huge range of lighting pole collection and invest quite a lot of money on research and development. It is shown through studies that if the light source is high up above, the higher it is the wider an area can be covered with light. People try to utilize as much of a lighting pole as possible. One of the uses is to hang advertising banners. The wider an area is lighted up, the fewer the columns needed to distribute light to an intended area. And we are doing our very best to keep our clients, both current and potential ones, satisfied.
In this application, high mast is often known as a monopole. Basically, the pole used in the wireless communication system is the same as in any lighting projects. Lighting poles used inside stadiums and during any sport games often needed to be very tall in order to meet the clearance requirements. It means that the light source from high above will be high enough to light up the whole fields or stadiums without causing too many flares which might affect the athletes? It is a single tube structure which does not take up too much public space and its slim design is often considered as less obtrusive and pleasing to the eyes like normal high mast lighting poles. Moreover, the use of high mast lighting poles has made the sports games more exciting because they can happen during the night.
Because these high lighting poles are often under great stress from the wind, it is important that the columns are manufactured based on correct measurements. This kind of work station, however, is not at all safe because there is still the possibility that the platform might collapse when the workers trying to reach the light fixtures mounted on the high mast lighting poles. For example, if the wind velocity is higher, the wall of the lighting columns should be thicker in order to stand strong against the wind. However, in order to have those panels hung on the poles, marketing agencies must get approval by city councils to avoid any legal implications concerned with aesthetic aspect of the advertisement panels on each high mast lighting pole. It is Extensa Lightings honor to provide high quality and passively safe high mast lighting structures to any markets in the world.
