This standard includes columns of height greater than those that were envisaged
in the scope of the existing BS 1308, BS 1840 and BS 3989. It is therefore
inappropriate to use the design loading requirements in these British Standards
for columns over 15 m in nominal height; for such columns the loading
requirements should be agreed between the purchaser and the supplier, pending
the issue of other Parts of this standard.
Advice regarding the choice of planting depth is given in National appendix B.
Convention. In this European Standard the comma has been used as a decimal
marker. In British Standards it is current practice to use a full point on the
baseline as the decimal marker.
A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a
contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application.
Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity
from legal obligations.

Brief history
This European Standard, drawn up by technical
committee CEN/TC 50 Lighting poles and spigots
(secretariat DIN), was submitted to the ballot of
CEN members in February 1976 with a view to its
adoption as a European Standard.
It was adopted as such by CEN on 30 June 1976 on
the strength of its acceptance by the following
member countries:
Austria, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy,
Netherlands, Portugal, Switzerland,
United Kingdom.
Foreword
In producing this Part of this standard it was
recognized that columns with nominal heights
and/or bracket projections not specified in this
standard will still be needed to replace columns in
existing lighting schemes. However, all columns for
new lighting schemes should be selected from the
nominal heights and bracket projections specified in
this document.
