A pre-cast foundation is a concrete foundation that is manufactured and processed in a scale plant under standard conditions and in a controlled environment. During installation, it is sent to the customer’s address and is installed. Pre-cast concrete foundations are one of the robust foundations used in earthquake-prone areas for the implementation of lighting tower foundations, towers, and lighting poles, etc.
Pre-cast foundation installation steps
There are different steps for the implementation of pre-cast foundations, which are described below:
40 or 70 cm excavation (it differs according to the type of scale)
Substrate preparation with concrete at the foundation site
Arrangement of foundation sections
Scale installation
All stages of the pre-cast foundation implementation, from excavation to the installation of the foundation sections and scale installation, are done in only 3 days. The foundation can be moved since it is pre-cast. Finally, the lighting pole, etc. are installed on the foundation.
Application of pre-cast concrete foundation
The pre-cast concrete foundations are applied as:
- Camera base foundation
- Telecommunication towers’ foundation
- Lighting poles’ foundation
- Surveillance cameras and traffic signs’ foundation
Tower pre-cast foundation
These foundations are a part of the tower structure, which is responsible for transferring the loads imposed on it and transferring these loads to the ground. Since these towers are always exposed to wind, floods, landslides, etc., it is necessary to fix them in place with a strong tool to ensure the overall strength of the structure.
