Steel Pipe Encased in Concrete Pier
Steel Pipe Encased in Concrete Pier
(OP)
This is a typical flag pole type situation.
What is wrong with simply dropping a steel pipe in a hole and encasing it with concrete?? Don't worry about sizing of pipe or pier - that has been worked out. Structure is not for occupancy - literally a flagpole type application.
I assume that rust is the only real problem and if so - are there simple measures to prevent it.
Thanks for any help.

Good point on replacement --- but probably never happen.

You can insert the poles into the wet concrete or pre-insert.
Another optin that cab be used for granular soils, the pole can actually be virated down to the required depth. Needs to be galvanised.
