    It should work very well. If by some fluke due to saturated ground you have any problems, PM me and I'll explain how to place a collar around the foundations. An architect came up with it after his light pole base design failed and several poles at the car dealership we built leaned after a storm. They've held for over 30 years now.

    Very nicely done "testing lab" ya got there.

    Absolutely, and thanks for the offer. I'm paranoid that these things might start leaning and that gives me some comfort that there is a fix. Each pole has ~3.33 80# bags of cement and four 24" rebate pins in it so I hope that is enough.
