Tiivistelmä
The purpose of the research was to develop, calculate and test glulam lighting pole according to Eurocodes. The study was commissioned by the Tehomet company.
In the theoretical part of the study the main issues were calculations of glulam column and horizontal beam according to Eurocodes with problems which were noted in advance using Excel software. AutoCAD software was used to draw sketches of glulam column, horizontal beam and steel joint. The information was gathered from literature, regulations, reference books, handbooks and the Internet.
In the empirical part of the study the main concerns were testing prototypes of pole with wooden packs and with steel parts; observation of the following process and changes in a pole’s structure and making conclusions about the behavior of the structure.
The final result of the thesis was to summarize the research of glulam lighting pole, reveal the suitable structure and exact problems which can take place in a real pole with real sizes.
