Looking for reference to design the foundation of a medium sign
(OP)
Hello,
I am looking for advice/tips in the following project: I intend to build a medium sign, about 8ft X 8ft, 10ft above the ground. I've done a bit of research, and I am concerned about properly calculating the wind loads and the design of the foundation (shape, materials, etc.).
Thought I have experience in mechanical/electrical design, I am a total newby on the Civil Engineering game - is there any literature (Engineering books/manuals/etc.) you would recommend that could help me? I would not expect that you write the entire design considerations, but if you know a good book that could point me in the right direction, that will help me out a great deal.
Thanks!
