and movement of the foundation in both rotational and translational
directions. The Purchaser should specify how these movements should
be considered in the design or allow the engineer to accommodate the
movement using any suitable method. Unless the Purchaser specifi es the
expected foundation movements or point of fi xity to be considered in the
design, the engineer may assume fi xity at groundline and no foundation
rotation or translation.
MULTISECTION CONCRETE POLES
Prestressed concrete poles can be assembled with several different
types of connections, including some proprietary methods of various
