Characteristics Of Stadium Light Poles

As a light pole manufacturer, Phoebus talks most about stadium light poles in daily communication with customers, in addition to stadium lamps. With our profound technical accumulation and innovative thinking, we have accumulated rich and excellent practical experience in the field of stadium lighting design. From large-scale comprehensive stadiums to special sports venues, we customize lighting solutions that are both functional and artistic.

Especially in outdoor stadiums, stadium lamps need to be flexibly used with stadium light poles, such as single-lamp poles, double-lamp poles, three-lamp poles, four-lamp poles, round and other types.

The material of stadium light poles is mostly Q235 polygonal tapered poles. Those above 15 meters are called high masts, which need to be equipped with automatic lifts or climbing ladders for installation and maintenance. The higher the light pole, the greater the power of the matching lamps and the wider the lighting area.

At the same time, the thickness of the light pole is closely related to the load weight of each light pole. The higher the lighting level and the larger the venue, the greater the thickness and height of the light pole. Reasonable light pole configuration can effectively meet the load of the lamp.

Most of the outdoor court light poles on the market are fixed by embedded parts. The size of the embedded parts, the size of the pit, and the strength of the concrete may affect the bearing capacity and wind resistance of the light pole.

Therefore, the installation of embedded parts of court light poles should be considered at the same time as the construction of the foundation ground begins, and at least a good position should be reserved for the installation of embedded parts in advance.

For conventional basketball courts, we can determine that the height of the light poles used in such small venues is 6-8 meters, the size of the flange of the light pole base is within 350x350mm, the main structural steel bars of the embedded parts are 16mm in diameter, and the entire embedded part is welded with 4 main steel bars and two layers of reinforcement bars. The height is 70 cm, and the distance between two adjacent main steel bars is 20 cm. The embedded parts are installed in a tunnel with a length and width of 60x60 cm and a depth of 80 cm and filled with concrete. The embedded parts are 5 cm above the ground, and the threading pipe is located in the center of the embedded parts and extends out of the ground.

For example, the size of a standard basketball court is 28m for the sideline and 15m for the endline. The installation position of the embedded foundation is 1.5m-2.0m from the sideline, and the distance from the endline depends on the number of installed light poles. Taking a 4-light pole basketball court as an example, the installation position of the embedded foundation should be 5m away from the endline. A 6-light pole court installs 1 light pole at each end of the court centerline, and the remaining 4 light poles are 4m away from the endline.

Those who have come into contact with stadium light poles should know that stadium light poles mostly use tapered poles, because tapered poles have good wind resistance and beautiful appearance. The taper of the tapered pole needs to be calculated using a calculation formula. The taper of the light pole can only be obtained by calculating according to the calculation formula.

8-meter stadium light poles are mostly 70mm in upper diameter and 172mm in lower diameter, with a thickness of 3.0mm.

8-meter light pole taper: (172-70) ÷ 8 = 12.75

12.75 is the taper value of the light pole, which is between 10-15 and can be produced.

From the above formula, we can see that the diameter of our stadium light pole is relatively large, with an upper diameter of 70mm, a lower diameter of 172mm, and a thickness of 3.0mm. However, the specific values will vary slightly from manufacturer to manufacturer, as long as the taper value meets the national standard.

As the height of the outdoor large stadium light pole embedded parts increases, the diameter increases, and the shape design changes, its specifications, dimensions and material standards also increase.

Usually the diameter of the stadium light pole is larger than that of the street light pole, because it is used in the stadium, the number is small, the quality is high, and it can also meet the overall aesthetics and comfort of the stadium.
