Pole Installation
Zomeworks can only provide general guidelines for the design and installation of the
mounting pole. Our recommended hole diameters and depths are based on “typical soils”. For
installations in sandy or muddy areas, for tall mounting poles, or for any situation different
than what is described in these instructions, you should consult a local structural engineer.
Large trackers can receive very high wind loads – so a sufficiently strong pole and foundation
is crucial. The height of the pole must provide adequate ground clearance for the rack and
mounted modules. Zomeworks can provide assistance for spacing multiple racks to avoid
shading.
NOTE: ZOMEWORKS CORPORATION ASSUMES NO LIABILITY FOR THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF
THE POLE AND ITS INSTALLATION. SOIL AND WIND CONDITIONS VARY. IF THERE IS ANY DOUBT,
CONSULT WITH A LOCAL STRUCTURAL ENGINEER. TALK TO YOUR CERTIFYING ENGINEER BEFORE
THE POLE IS INSTALLED!
