Foundation for Sign Pole 1

[Abdel22]

Hello,

i m designing a foundation for a sign pole(drilled shaft). i found the embedment length. anyone know which formula to use to calcs the necessary reinforcement.
i looked at some old design, they use # 5 Vertical with # 4 @ 12" without any clacs

anyone with some reference on how to design sign foundation.

thank you

I'm with jdonville on this one. This thread is getting scary. This thread should not be the main (only?) reference for learning how to design this sign foundation. Time for Abdel22 to hire, or find in his or her office experienced engineers - one for the soils, pressures, deflections, etc. and one for the concrete shaft design.
