Application
Dependent upon wind-loading and location, the Kingsmill Lightning Mast can be fixed to a concrete foundation, fixed to structural steelwork, or set into the ground. The type of base is dependent on wind-loading and other operational conditions. The recommended base option is hinged and used in conjunction with a concrete foundation or directly fixed/incorporated to the structure.
