Gardco Bracket Specifications

General

All bracket arms are fabricated from 2" schedule 40 pipe, resulting in 2-3/8" OD tenon connections, unless otherwise specified. Alternatives for bracket pipe and slip fitter/mount to pole tenon are available upon request.

Finish

Brackets are available in standard Gardco color finishes: Black, White, Bronze, Dark Grey, and Medium Grey. An optional Galvanized finish and custom colors are also available. The hue of the Dark Grey finish may vary slightly when compared to Gardco poles and luminaires specified with the same DG finish.

Maximum Weight Load

Maximum tenon loading is calculated for weights based on a 100 MPH wind with a 3-second gust per 2009 AASHTO LTS-5, located 30' above grade (maximum 70' mounting height). For loading requirements exceeding these limits, contact the factory. The total combined weight and EPA of brackets, luminaires, and accessories must not exceed that allowed on the pole ordered.

Luminaire Clearance Considerations

Adjacent tenon spacing and fixture dimensions must be compared for proper clearance between luminaires.

Design Considerations

Poles and brackets installed in areas with known abnormal conditions (e.g., coastal areas, airports, high wind zones) may require special consideration. Poles are designed for ground-mounted applications. Poles and brackets mounted on structures may also necessitate special consideration, requiring Gardco's recommendation. Height correction factors and drag coefficients are applied to the entire structure. An appropriate safety factor is maintained based on the minimum yield strength of the material incorporated in the pole.

Warning

This design information is intended as a general guideline only. The customer is solely responsible for the proper selection of pole, bracket, luminaire, accessory, and foundation based on site conditions and intended usage. Adding items to the pole will dramatically impact the EPA load. It is strongly recommended that a qualified professional be consulted to analyze the loads and ensure proper selection. Gardco assumes no responsibility for improper analysis or product selections. Failure to ensure proper site analysis, pole selection, loads, and installation can result in pole and/or bracket failure, leading to serious injury or property damage.

Warranty

Gardco brackets are covered by a 1-year structural and finish warranty. For more information, visit signify.com/warranties.
