4.3. Construct foundation of the Charge pole (for reference only)
4.3.1. Options
Use the correct foundation for the type of surface that the Charge pole will be installed on:
Soil (option 1)
Use a concrete foundation to get a firm fixation on soil.
A concrete foundation must be designed by local engineer. Refer to Appendix G
Dimensions concrete foundation Pole for sample design.
Soil (option 2)
Use a tube foundation to get a firm fixation on soil. This tube foundation can be used
if there are space restrictions, for example close to a building. Contact the ABB Sales
department for more information and possibilities, see Contact information on Page 14
for contact details.
Solid floor
The local contractor is responsible to make the calculations if the floor can handle the
force of the pole. Contact the ABB Sales department when you want to mount the
Charge pole on a concrete floor, see Contact information on Page 14 for contact
details.
The cables must be embedded in the ground with cable conduits. See section Cabling on
Page 49 and section Civil installation on Page 36.
4.3.2. Workflow with pre-fabricated concrete foundation (for reference only)
Be aware that the position footprint relative to the road is very important
to make sure the pantograph can function optimally.
1.
Preparations
Before the concrete foundation can be installed some measurements have to be taken into
account. The Soil conditions are very important for the function of the concrete foundation.
Depending of the soil conditions sand settlement can take place. Because of the heavy
construction > 17636.98 lb some preventive actions are advised. The time frame in which the
soil settlement will be elaborated is depending on:
Sand compaction during installation
Pavement around the construction
Wetter conditions (rain, frost, temperature)
