ASCE7-05 WIND MAP FLORIDA REGION WIND MAP
NOTES
• Allowable EPA, to determine max pole loading weight, multiply allowable EPA by 30 lbs.
• The tables for allowable pole EPA are based on the ASCE 7-05 Wind Map or the Florida Region Wind Map for the 2017 Florida Building Code. The Wind Maps are intended only as a general guide and
cannot be used in conjunction with other maps. Always consult local authorities to determine maximum wind velocities, gusting and unique wind conditions for each specific application
• Allowable pole EPA for jobsite wind conditions must be equal to or greater than the total EPA for fixtures, arms, and accessories to be assembled to the pole. Responsibility lies with the specifier for
correct pole selection. Installation of poles without luminaires or attachment of any unauthorized accessories to poles is discouraged and shall void the manufacturer’s warranty
• Wind speeds and listed EPAs are for ground mounted installations. Poles mounted on structures (such as bridges and buildings) must consider vibration and coefficient of height factors beyond this
general guide; Consult local and federal standards
• Wind Induced Vibration brought on by steady, unidirectional winds and other unpredictable aerodynamic forces are not included in wind velocity ratings. Consult Hubbell Lighting’s Pole Vibration
Application Guide for environmental risk factors and design considerations. http://cdn.hubbelloutdoor.com/content/products/literature/literature_files/Pole_Wind_Induced_Flyer_HLOI0022.pdf
• Extreme Wind Events like, Hurricanes, Typhoons, Cyclones, or Tornadoes may expose poles to flying debris, wind shear or other detrimental effects not included in wind velocity ratings

• Florida region wind map
above is based upon
3-second gust winds and
the 2017 Florida Building
Code
HAWAII – 105 mph
PUERTO RICO – 145 mph
NOTES:
• Values are based on 50 year mean recurrence interval 30’
above grade.
• Hawaii has an 105 mph wind velocity.
• Puerto Rico has a 125 mph wind velocity.
• Caution must be exercised in determining wind velocities
in special wind areas such as:
Mountainous Regions
Areas surrounding the Great Lakes or other large bodies
of water or open land.
Areas subject to extreme wind conditions, such as
hurricanes, typhoons, cyclones, and tornadoes.
Areas adjacent to airports.
Any specific area with a known or suspected abnormally
high intermittent wind condition caused by geography,
adjacent structures, or other specific local conditions
that may not be recorded in National Weather Service
records.
• Allowable pole EPA for jobsite wind conditions must be
equal to or greater than fixture EPA. Responsibility lies with
the specifier for correct pole selection based on AASHTO
wind map and job location.
• The Wind Map is intended only as a general guide. Always
consult local authorities to determine maximum wind
velocities, gusting and unique wind conditions for each
specific application.
• CAUTION: Wind speeds and listed EPAs are for ground
mounted installations. Poles mounted on structures (such
as bridges and buildings) must consider vibration and
coefficient of height factors beyond this general guide.
Consult AASHTO standards.
• Extreme Wind Events: Hurricanes, Typhoons, Cyclones, or
Tornadoes expose poles to flying debris, wind shear, and
other unpredictable aerodynamic forces not indicated by
the wind velocity ratings.
• Pole Strength Limited Warranty: Standard, unmodified Kim
lighting Poles installed as recommended, undamaged by
corrosion, or lack of maintenance, shall withstand steady
wind conditions as provided on page 2 (Allowable Pole
EPA). Installation of poles without luminaires, or attachment
of any unauthorized accessories to poles shall void this
warranty.
