Technical
- Maximum height on parapet mount is 5m
- Maximum height on bunker mount is 6m
Note ref wall construction for Parapet Mounted
- Parapets must be of solid construction, ideally pre-cast concrete or steel-framed
- For brick built parapets, single skin construction is not suitable
- Parapets where the brickwork is not in good condition are not suitable
- The minimum parapet height is 1100mm
- The product head load must not be exceeded
- In cases where a greater head load is proposed, Altron must be contacted and suitable advice should be sought regarding parapet construction and strength
Note ref wall construction for Bunker Mounted
We have designed the loading and bolt fixing for our wall mounted poles for fixing into good brickwork. For breeze block type walls and brick walls in poor condition, we recommend bolting through the wall and employing a structural engineer, to ensure that the wall is suitable
