Nowadays, the use of high mast lighting poles is very important. 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. This is a great opportunity for marketers not only to advertise their brands but also to let their imagination fly on how to best use lighting poles for advertising. One of the applications that high mast structures come in quite useful is to be used for the wireless communication system.

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. Because these poles will have to load more weight than just light fixtures, it is important that the sites where these poles will be installed should be carefully checked to see whether there might be opportunities for marketers to exploit the shaft for advertising. In these situations, the marketing agencies might have to pay for more robust street lighting columns so that advertisement panels can be hung on the poles. 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. During the crash, the blocks constructed these passively safe poles will disintegrate in order to absorb the energy produced when the vehicles hit the poles.

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. Wind velocity and gust velocity are 2 important factors needed to be taken into account because they will greatly affect the dimensions of the 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.
