Depending on load conditions. J.H. Baxter TimberWood
Lighting Standards may be directly embedded in firm soil.
Under heavy load, or in poor soil conditions, concrete embedment may be required. For parking lot instalations, the standards
can be fitted with either bumper guard protection devices or a
concrete collar.
Laminated wood
crossarms with metal
raceway inserts are available
in one and two-way models.
They give added flexibility of design
when used with the straight standards. For
acceptable combinations of length and fixture the
luminaire manufacturers should be consulted.
The
raceway
access hole for
underground
wireing is centered 2'6" below
the ground line and rises
30° to vertical for use
where underground splicing is permitted. Above ground junction boxes of various types
can be used. The ground line is marked on each standard at
correct depth for embedment in soil or concrete. Standardss
are branded just above ground line with the date of manufacture. Various brackets, crossarms and mounts are available.

Wood Light Poles
High quality and
long service life
TimberWood Light Poles are laminated for both strength and
beauty and pressure treated by J.H. Baxter for durability.TimberWood
Light Poles provide functional lighting by night and attractive
landscaping by day. Used by designers to further enhance their project’s
landscape,TimberWood Light Poles may be selected from our standard
product listing or customized for your project.
Here is a quote recent study* by University of
Oregon scientists.
“
If we use the [nationwide] replacement
rate, the average pole service life would
easily reach 80 years in many areas of
the country, far in excess of the
perceived 30 to 40 years. Thus, old
wood does not mean weaker wood.

In the right hands of leading landscape architects or experienced
developers, wood becomes like an artist’s clay by enhancing the
material’s natural beauty as it is placed back into nature’s surroundings.
The designer uses wood with confidence because it is truly a natural
and renewable raw material.While solar power gains in popularity, we
recognize that wood has grown from the physical power of the sun
since the beginning of time.
TimberWood Light Poles fit naturally into many environments—most
predominantly into rural and suburban settings. From housing
developments to recreational and resort settings, entertainment and
sports venues to shopping centers and industrial parks, wood can
provide the warmth and pleasing appearance while fulfilling the
functional and structural need.To enhance local community projects,
many investor-owned and public utilities specify TimberWood
because their customers prefer the esthetic look of wood.

J.H. Baxter TimberWood Light Poles are engineered and laminated from Pacific Coastal
Douglas-fir utilizing waterproof glue. Knots, checks, color and grain variations are kept
to enhance and present the natural characteristics of wood. Larger open defects are filled
and sanded, and the standards are finished providing a smooth planed surface. A crosssanded finish is also available at additional cost.

Appearance
PROJECT: Southcliff development
near Asheville, NC
As the surface roughens with weathering, the exterior appearance will take on the look
similar to that of barn wood or drift wood. Checking may appear over time.This process
does not harm the strength or integrity of the light pole.TimberWood may be
stained if other than a natural color is desired. However like with any stained
product, periodical maintenance to re-stain the structure may be desired.
Key Benefits of Wood
Light Poles
• Flexible, Resilient
& Strong
Wood poles already have substantial advantages
over other materials because wood is renewable,
sustainable, generates less greenhouse gases during manufacture, and provides a longterm repository for atmospheric carbon. Prolonging the useful life of a wood pole further
enhances the carbon footprint through requiring less replacement activities, keeping
thousands of tons of carbon stored in the existing pole plant (i.e. a utility distribution and
transmission system) and allowing growing replacements to continue carbon
sequestration in the forest.*

While various heights and widths are available, the majority
of TimberWood models are square to rectangular in shape.
Many designers and contractors looking for a fresh, new look
specify the _____ HEX model.The HEX is a six-sided shaped
standard providing an updated design with additional angles and dimension.
Measured luminaire weights and EPA loading criteria are easily calculated
using formulas available upon request.
