Hello Everybody!
I am working on my Eagle Scout project for the Boy Scouts of America and I am looking for a metal pole. I am going to set up a civil defense siren in northern Arizona. They are currently experiencing droughts and forest fires every summer. This is for a small rural community that is in danger of fire. This would allow for a rapid evacuation should one be necessary. We have the siren donated, and most of the other materials we will need. We are currently looking for a metal pole now, and I wondered if anyone had a surplus metal pole, knew of where I could find a surplus or used metal pole, or someone who might have information in general about metal poles of this caliber, useful information that I can use in my search. The siren weighs 2,700lbs. The metal pole needs to be able to withstand that much weight. The siren will rotate causing a vibration motion. The minimum height the pole needs to be is 6 feet per government regulations, however the taller the pole is the farther the sound carries, thus allowing it to do a better job! Thank you for your help! Jkeagle13 (at) aol (dot) com |
