RE: Footing for a heavy sign 20 feet up
Suggest that you review design guidance for highway luminaries, traffic signal poles or other traffic lighting poles.
Typically, some sort of drilled shaft foundation is used. The depth and diameter are controlled by the soil conditions, weight of the sign and applied design moment(s).
