Following are pages from section II of "Sign Structures & Foundations" (Peter B.
Horsly) which contains all of the formulae we use for determining concrete bases
and steel support requirements. It is based on a high average of 100 mph wind
load (40 to 45 lbs per sq foot of pressure). The formulae are incorporated in a
spreadsheet, which we use to determine pole & footing requirements. When
compared to formal (professional) engineered calculations, the "Sign Structures
& Foundations" calculations tend to be over what is required.

SECTION 11: CONCRETE (BASES
The Windload Factor
An important aspect of selling electric signs is
organizing the information the salesman will need to
convince the customer that he is making a wise deci-
sion. The salesman must make a realistic and
comprehensive presentation including specifications,
color schemes, color sketch or pictorial proposal and
information about cost.
Suppose, however, that the proposal is a large
one which requires an engineered structural design
for the sign supports. How do you minimize your
costs?
A Simple Approach
Remember that all you are after is an accurate
price to quote to a potential customer. The way out of
the problem is for your designer and your estimator to
acquire a minimal amount of structural engineering so
that they will be in a position to give you quick service
on (a) a design for a sign support that is within safe
standards of design, and (b) an estimate on how much
the sign support is going to cost, within a few dollars.
After the sign proposal is sold, then you may want
to have a qualified engineer check over the structural
supports, or perhaps the municipal engineer in your
locality provides this kind of check prior to issuing per-
mits. In any case, common sense tells you that you do
not want to risk life and limb of the public by having a
sign blow over into a busy street.
Three Factors to Consider
When you install a pylon sign, there are three
things that can cause a failure. One is the force of
gravity, which constantly pulls everything
"earthward," the second is unstable soil, and the
third, the most important, is the force of the wind. If
you erect a sign without any thought as to what is
going to hold it up, it might topple over of its own
weight, or the first high wind might blow it to the
ground.
Since the wind pressure on a sign is the largest
toppling force we have to contend with, we engineer
for the expected windload, and other factors will then
be accounted for. This is assuming that one has
checked the location and found it to be solid ground
and not a quagmire or quicksand.
Winds can run as high as 100 miles per hour (and
10
P. 03
sometimes much higher). A 100 mile per hour wind
generates a pressure on a sign face of 40 to 45
pounds per square foot. In other words, a ten ft. by ten
ft. panel (100 sq. ft.) will have to withstand a force of
4000 pounds, or two tons. Evidently, it requires a
sturdy supporting structure to resist these pressures.
Wind pressure is called a live load because it
varies from zero to its maximum in any given locality.
Furthermore, a steady wind is less likely to occur than
a gusty wind, which delivers a varying pressure on a
sign face. Sign structures have to be strong enough to
resist the highest expected windload as well as with-
stand the buffeting and tugging of stormy winds.
Height is Significant
Near the ground, the wind is slowed down by the
ground itself, and by weeds, foliage, grass, fences,
houses, etc. Thus, at a slightly elevated level the wind
is of greater strength than it is at the ground. A sign
that sticks up in the air higher will require greater
strength not only because of its greater vulnerability
but because of higher windloads as well.
The windload table you need can be easily mem-
orized. For designer's calculations, allow 26 lbs. per
sq. ft, of sign face at a height of 26 ft. or less. Allow 40
lbs, per sq. ft. of sign face at a height of 40 ft. or more.
In between 26 ft. and 40 ft, high, let the pressure per

sq. ft. equal the height. What do you do if a sign face
starts at 20 ft. and reaches up to 40 ft. high? You take
the average, (halfway), that is, 30 lbs. per sq. ft.
Using Windload Chart
It is often an advantage to calculate the windload
on different parts of a large sign as separate units. For
tall pylons, a more realistic result is obtained by
separate calculations, because the wind factor can
vary greatly on a large sign face, as indicated by the
windload chart.
The wavy line on the chart represents a typical
variation of pressure with height- Actual conditions
vary much more in urban settings. Large buildings
can shield a sign from prevailing winds; or on the
other hand, nearby structures can act as funnels
t which concentrate wind pressure into certain chan-
nels. Safety should be taken into consideration
whenever such factors are evident.
The windload chart can be used safely in most
' localities.
All of the formulae in this book are based on a maxi-
mum wind velocity of 100 miles per hour, This -,Is the max-
imum wind that can be expected in this part of the
country where the writer resides. Of course, it is possi-
ble for the wind to have a greater velocity, especially in
a storm with wild gusty wind. Wind gusts have been
measured as high as 150 miles per hour. Regardless,
the maximum expectation on which windload engineer-
ing is calculated is 100 miles per hour.
This maximum would probably apply over large areas
' of Canada and United States. There are some states
where a higher wind maximum is used ... for example,
a reader in Florida advises that the maximum wind ve-
locity in that region is 110 miles per hour. If you do not
know what wind veiocity is used by engineers in your
locality, you can find out by inquiring at your municipal
r
FAX N0, 15092480714 P. 04
or county office where the building inspectors and sign
structure inspectors have their offices. The information
will be made available at your request.
If you find that the maximum wind velocity in your lo-
cality is higher than 100 miles per hour, you can still use
all of the formulae in this book. However, once you have
obtained a result, then use the following formula to in-
crease your result to meet your requirements:
Maximum wind velocity
in your locality X Results obtained = The requirernems ci
Divided by 100 from this book your locality
Concrete Base Formulas
To keep a sign from toppling over, it is set on a
secure foundation of concrete, and either planted into
the'concrete or bolted securely to it. Since the placing
of a concrete base for the sign may often precede the
construction of the sign by several weeks, we give it
prior consideration. It is sometimes necessary to
place the concrete sign base prior to general paving
by other contractors.
Perhaps the general contractor has an override in
which he must be responsible for all concrete. In this
case you must have your concrete sign base specifi-
cations in his hands at the time when he is pouring
concrete on the site for foundation, etc. For these
reasons, the sign base often has to have first
consideration.
The minimum depth for a concrete sign base in north-
ern latitudes is 4 feet. The reason is that the bottom of
the block of concrete must be below the mid -winter frost
line, which can reach a depth of 42 inches. If the bottom
of the concrete is below the frost line, then the concrete

will not heave and shift out of place during the Spring
thaw.
Al that depth, four feet, the earth pressure of most
impacted soils and clays is greater than the ballast ef•
fect of a block of concrete. This Is to say, for every yard
of concrete you drop into an excavation that is at least
four feet deep, the earth pressure will supply an equal
or greater amount of tipping resistance as compared to
the tipping resistance of the concreTe alone (because of
its weight and inertia).
At depths greater than four feet, the earth pressure
increases substantially. For deep settings (piles for ex-
ample) earth pressure alone supplies the tipping
resistance.
The formula for a concrete base for a small sign con-
siders the wind pressure on the sign and the height of
the sign panet as leverage in pounds. A safety factor is
added. Then the leverage of the sign is divided by 4000
lbs. (the weight of cubic yard of concrete) plus 4000
pounds for the earth pressure. These are added together
and multiplied by the concrete leverage factor which is
usually half the width of the concrete base, as in the fol-
lowing example:
W x H x C x P x 1.5 - Cubic yqs.
(4000 + 4000) x 1,5
'AUG -18-2004 WED 12;18 PM DWINELLS
{ Since the safety factor and the concret
e leverage can-
cel each other out (as they are usually about equal in
small base calculations), the simplified formula becomes:
W x H x C x P= cubic yards of
8000 concrete
In this formula, the W is the width of the sign panel,
the H is the height of the sign panel, the C is the distance
from the ground to the center of the sign panel and the
P is the wind pressure per square foot on the sign panel.
The pressure is obtained from the windload chart on
page 10.
For further details on formulae see the appendix.
When designing concrete bases for medium and large
signs, where the excavation is deeper than tour feet, the
denominator of 8000 can be increased proportionately
to as much as 16,000 to 18,000. This is shown on the
Quick Chart for concrete bases.
What shape to make the concrete base? For this
you may want to take into consideration the cost of
the excavation, the softness or wetness of the ground,
etc. Generally speaking, for small signs the concrete
can be a square shape at the top and about twice as
deep into the ground as the width of the square.
Suppose a sign calls for a base with two cubic yards
of concrete, which is 54 cubic feet. You can make the
base 3 ft. square at the top and 6 ft, deep. This gives
you 54 cubic feet of concrete (3 x 3 x 6 equals 54).
Concrete has become an expensive item in the sign
budget. It is a great saving in concrete if you take the
time to form and shape the base to make the shape work
for you. In hard impacted soil, gravel mixtures and clay,
an elongated base like that shown at K makes the best
use of earth pressure. See the Quick Chart for concrete
bases.
For unstable soils, sand, shale or land fill that is not
impacted, consider a shape like the one shown at M. The
formula for this base is shown on the Quick Chart also.
The longer you make the baseline BL (which is meas-
ured in feet) the less concrete is required to stabilize the
sign. The weight of the base stabilizes loose material un-
der it as well as supporting the sign. On rock, where ex-
cavation is impossible, clean and wash the rock and then
form and pour the slab type base right on top of the rock.
On the other hand, the other bases shown must be
buried to take advantage of earth pressure. After the
base is poured leave it undisturbed for a sufficient length
of time to cure and harden. Concrete that is put under
strain too soon will eventually lose its strength and start
to crumble, especially in northern latitudes where winter
frost is a factor.
Bolts and Electrical Feed
When the concrete is poured, two things have to
be set into it while it is wet, the sign bolts and the tube
for the electrical feed if it is to be fed in underground.
See diagrams A or B. If you want the top of the base to
look neat, make a form of planks or 2 by 6 lumber as
shown at C. The form is designed to hold the bolts in
the exact position required until the concrete is set.
To assure smoothest possible appearance of the
concrete, hammer the sides of the form so the wet
cement will flow to the top. Then smooth the surface
with a trowel.
FAX N0, 15092480714 P. 06
Determining Bolt Size
Bolts are the critical coupling between the rigidity of
the steel support and the mass of the solid block of con-
crete, They can be the weak link because they are the
most likely part of the support system to be subject to
human error and the most likely place for problems to
arise during a severe storm.
The nuts have to be loaded equally and uniformly tor•
qued to be certain that one or the other is not resisting
an extra portion of the tipping force on the sign. If the
nuts are tightened manually without a torque wrench, the
same person should do the tightening so it will be uni-
form. A buffetting gutsy wind will soon loose any nuts
that are not secured. It is a good idea to use double nuts
on each bolt. The second nut acts as a locking nut to
keep the first one tight.
The number of square inches per bolt is determined
by using the formula (in the appendix) or on the Quick
Chart for bolt sizes. When the threads are cut into the
bolt material, some material is removed, causing a
weakening of the bolt at the point where the threads end.
For this reason an allowance is made for the material re-
moved. The bolt chart below automatically allows for
threads.

crete. Using the sign on the right with two sign panels,
make a separate equation for each panel, then add the
two answers together to get a final result. Similarly, if you
get a job with several sign panels on it, calculate each
pane separately and add the results into one total,
The objective of the calculations for concrete bases
is to make certain that a sufficient amount of concrete
is used. The concrete must have the tipping resistance
necessary to stabilize the sign in an upright position dur-
ing the most hazardous conditions that might occur. For
signs, wind storms are the most hazardous attribute of
nature.
The cost of transit mixed concrete has increased sig-
nificantly in recent times. The sign contractor must be
ready to take advantage of any cost saving that presents
itself, so long as such saving does not jeopardize the
safety of a project. One method that is popular is to uti-
lize an auger excavator to make the excavation. Since
the machine is fast and efficient, one can order the ex-
cavation made much deeper than usual. The result is that
the formula for deep bases can be used (see the Quick

concrete are reduced. However, some vertical reinforc-
ing rods should be inserted into narrow auger exca-
vations.
This type of base can be used successfully for very
small signs such as parking lot directional signs, and par-
ticularly for the pipe supports for parking lot lighting. A
12- or 14 -inch auger is used to make the excavation,
Often the pipe support is inserted into the wet cement
and then held steady with wood bracing until the con -
