Spot the Turkey: Violation Edition

[cadpoint]

Don't know if I should say, and maybe should go read my local Code(s), in NC it use to be 4 sq. min. now it's a 6 x4 treated wood post. Maybe it's even a 6 x6..

I don't see the tripod passing muster around here, even if Temp.

I don't ususally have to deal with this and usually just show up with the Band... :roll: Can I order dessert now?

With that terrain it's no wonder you dont know what a subsoiler is

It sounds like a head in a submarine.

I can't help but thinking that this tripod could easily be pushed over. Never seen one but sure seen some places i wish i had one. This is not service so poco not in picture. Are they ok with tripod on a service ? Not putting you down , i think you took a smart way out of a mess.

Not so much as you might think, especially after it's staked down. In this case, with it being on a hill, I was sure to set one leg pointed straight downhill for maximum stability before staking.

Yeah, it's kind of annoying when the POCO doesn't go for it. Actually, comparing it to a 4x4 post, often it's much better. The dirt around here is like concrete, so you wind up with a 8" deep hole. Four stakes on a quadrapod is way better than that.

About half the time, around here.

Thanks.

In response to Mark and wireguru, how much do you think that would add to the cost of the job?
