Our utility inspectors tested luminaire poles on WA Interstate 5 in Tacoma using non-destructive methods. The poles were around 30 inches in diameter so we used out large sized micro-resistance drill. This non-destructive testing can test poles without having to dig up around them. One poles had already fallen – on Superbowl Sunday of all […]
