Windspeed Rating Guide For Flag Poles
Be sure you get a flagpole that is strong enough to withstand expected winds in your area of the country.
Locate your installation location on the map above and note the windspeed rating. Then make sure you purchase a flagpole rated to that windspeed, or higher.More on windspeed, in case you're curious...
Flagpoles and their associated wind speeds listed assume that ten percent of the overall length of the flagpole is buried at or near ground level per industry recommendations. Special engineering may be required for other applications such as wall or roof mounted flagpoles. Contact us for a prompt response regarding any situation that may require special engineering.
The principal load acting on flagpoles is wind load and that load must be carefully determined. Maximum wind speeds to which flagpoles are exposed are dependent upon many factors such as geographical location, whether or not it is in the center of a large city, a small town's outskirts, seashore, at ground level or on the roof of a high building. Wind speeds generally are higher along coastal areas than inland. They are also higher in open country than in the center of cities. Wind speed also becomes greater as height above ground increases. Wind exerts a force on the pole as well as the flag, thus both loads must be added to determine total load. Flags of different sizes are designed to be flown from different sized poles.
It's important that flagpoles be selected which are capable of supporting the largest flag intended to be flown in the highest wind speed to which it will be subjected. Loads on flagpoles are resisted by the mounting foundation, roof, or wall to which it is secured.
PLEASE NOTE: recommended flag sizes throughout this site do not represent a warranty that the flag size shown may be safely flown in all wind speeds. Personal injury, flagpole damage or property damage can occur when flying oversized flags and banners or flying flags in higher winds than recommended.
Flagpole Height Guide
Here are some images to help you decide which flagpole size might look best for your intended installation.
Images and proportions are approximate but should give you a good idea of what your pole will look like next to various sizes of building. In the end, it is strictly a matter of personal taste. But in our experience, no one ever wished they had bought a shorter flagpole!
