I don't know what you mean by anti-academic. We were talking about light pole bases and you said it's the job of the concrete guys to pour them and I said it's different for me. I would go as far as to say that most guys that work on jobs with pole lights pour their own bases.What does that mean? For a moderator on a site dedicated to the nec and electrical contracting, you seem to be anti- academic...
I think the big job guys call them gang boxes.If you work for a company that bores, builds cages, sets proper grade/finished height and pours 500 light poles all the power to you.
Or, you are not thinking things through tonight!
Its ok, dave...ill work with ya.
Hard hats and tool boxes are sorta necessary..
Only three coffee mugs? How do they function?
We almost always poured the pole bases on our projects. It was just another scope to bring in-house and make money on to help offset the cost of the equipment that was useful in other areas of the job. The skid steer was very useful for backfilling trenches and all that was needed to add the pole base scope was an auger attachment. It also meant that I didn’t have to wait on someone else to come pour bases for me to complete the site work.Wait till you get to the big jobs. Your world doesnt concern others reality....
