Pole Base Installation Helps Save Time & Money On Amazon Fulfillment Center Project

When providing site lighting for a 2.5-million-square-foot (233,000-square-meter) Amazon Fulfillment Center, the solution needs to fit the scale. It needs to be reliable and install quickly to keep the entire project on track.

Southwest Concrete products provided the perfect solution with Pole Base precast site lighting foundations. The versatility of the Pole Base forming system allows for uniform looking bases with built to spec internal conduit placements and bolt patterns.

The entire project called for 135 bases, which meant it wasn’t only a massive first project for Southwest Concrete Products, but also one of the biggest Pole Base projects ever.

The bases, all in the Round Smooth texture, ranged in height from four to 11 feet (1.2 to 3.5 meters) tall. While they all provided the same finished aesthetic to tie the site together, the installers were able to expedite installation with the custom conduit placements and anchor bolt patterns for each particular base.

“Using Pole Base saved the contractor a lot of time and money. We delivered almost all of the bases within a two month period,” said Nathan Coronado, Outside Sales & Civil Engineer at Southwest Concrete Products. “The contractor has told other branches in Northern California about Pole Base, and we have received three other jobs since the Amazon project.”
