RS Pole Base Plate Installation

RS composite poles are typically embedded in the ground. Once the RS pole is assembled, the base plate, which dissipates the vertical load from the pole to the soil below, needs to be installed. This video details the base plate installation process. Contact RS at info@RSpoles.com for more information.
