Light Pole Foundation Evaluation

This project will research light pole foundation design in locations where ground water is present. It will size the foundation embedment and establish modified standard design criteria. Additional aspects include: finite element analysis and bogey testing of foundation design for various crash scenarios to evaluate changes in design assumptions.
