Millerbernd "Classic"
Traffic Signal Pole

Millerbernd recognizes the desire for traffic control signal poles that compliment urban beautification areas, downtown shopping malls, parkways, scenic boulevards and office parks. In these locations a prerequisite exists for a signal pole that blends gracefully with surrounding buildings, the landscape and the roadway design. The Millerbernd "Classic" Traffic Signal pole, with its tapered enclosed base, its slightly curved, gracefully tapered, mastarm and simple uncluttered octagonal post is an elegant choice for these applications.

The functional side of the "Classic" pole features a design that meets AASHTO requirements, a rotatable vertical post and luminaire extension that can be adjusted a full 360¨. The "Classic" also features optional twin signal mastarms and twin luminaire extension arms. It is available with 15 through 55 signal mastarm configurations. The Classic Signal pole is available with a variety of factory finish painted colors, prime painted, hot dip galvanized or self weathering steel.

The "Classic" Traffic Signal Pole is designed to fully comply with AASHTO requirements. The vertical post and mastarm are constructed of high-strength ASTM-A572 or A607 carbon steel (A588 or A606 if self-weathering steel) with a minimum 50,000 PSI yield strength. Each vertical post and mastarm is individually calculated by Millerbernd engineers to support the precise load it must carry in the exact wind velocity specified and is carefully fabricated by welders certified to the American Welding Societys rigorous standards.

The signal mastarm can is slipped over the vertical post to form an 18" long octagonal friction slipfit. The mastarm is then secured in place using an internal 5/8" x 13" long drawdown bolt through internal brackets. These brackets are securely welded inside the mastarm and the vertical post.

The "Classic" signal pole offers a rotatable "H" Base as a standard feature on lighter duty signal poles. This specialized base allows the post and mastarm to be easily rotated out of the way if it is necessary to move large loads through the intersection.

The luminaire extension is mounted on a rotatable gimbal mount which allows the luminaire arm to be set at any desired angle for lighting purposes.
