Specifies minimum requirements for the materials, design, fabrication and erection of steel utility services poles. It is intended to be used in conjunction with the forthcoming issue of AS 4676, Structural design requirements for utility services poles.

This Standard specifies minimum requirements for the materials, design, fabrication and erection of steel utility services poles.The Standard applies to steel poles and their component parts which support any one of street lights, floodlights, aerial conductors, electromotive-transport conductors, traffic signals, communication equipment, or similar utility services, or any combination of these services.The Standard does not apply to lattice steel towers and masts, freestanding or guyed, nor to steel flag poles.NOTES: 1 Means for demonstrating compliance with this Standard are given in Appendix A2 Design of lattice steel towers and masts is specified in AS 3995.
