What did you use for the pole in this video?
@SHAZEEBOShadeSailsАй бұрын
The pole is steel tubing. We generally recommend a minimum of 4" diameter for the steel posts and a schedule 40 thickness. You can get galvanized or raw steel.

Adding retention springs on each corner would buffer the load as the sail tends to stretch and contract.

Who put the park or whatever right underneath the major highline power run? There's been all kinds of studies that show how bad it is to spend extended time underneath that amount of power overhead. Second of all, it doesn't look like the wood was treated properly and that it is rotten wood that made the post break. I'm researching about installing some of these in my pastures, so I'm not an expert. Of course we would all rather have metal post for everything if we could afford it but they're super expensive on a big scale.

The 400-acre Agua Hedionda Lagoon is one of the threatened coastal wetlands on the Southern California coastline. Draining 135,000 acres in the heart of the burgeoning metropolitan area of San Diego's north county, the Lagoon watershed is a sensitive and vital ecosystem. It is home to juvenile fish, crabs, hundreds of species of marine life and waterfowl, including an array of threatened and endangered species. It also provides a much needed respite for migrating birds. The Lagoon is unique in that it has many current uses such as a YMCA day camp, recreational boating, a mussel and abalone aquaculture facility, a white-sea bass breeding and research center and a power generating facility. The Lagoon's various usages, and the many activities and ecosystems it supports, makes it a distinctive and precious natural resource unlike any other. www.aguahedionda.org/lagoon

Good morning miss understood! You may have noticed in the video that these shade sails are very large and for a commercial application. Larger projects require bigger posts, but the average residential project is perfectly fine with a 4"x4" steel post! No need for the larger 8" posts unless you're going for a large industrial look in your back yard! Of course, shade sails may not be right for everybody. Pergolas, Umbrellas, or Awnings can be great shade options too! Plenty of customers have a lot of success with cheaper shade sails from Costco or Amazon and since those sails don't come with stainless steel cable and hardware, you can usually get away with using wooden posts for those kinds of sails.

What’s the shortest Shazeebo turnbuckle size?
@SHAZEEBOShadeSails2 ай бұрын
Hi @doge8676, sorry we didn't see your comment earlier, for some reason it was flagged for review. The shortest size we carry is an 8mm, which is 7.7 in long when fully closed and 11.4 inches long when fully open. We don't generally recommend this size though. The 10mm size is the most commonly used for shade sail projects.

What are the specs on the steel? I'm going to do a 20X20 and need to know what steel to get and depth to keep the poles from pulling over sideways.
@SHAZEEBOShadeSails4 ай бұрын
We are not engineers, but the general recommendation is to go with a minimum 4" diameter steel post with schedule 40 thickness. If your posts are taller than 11' out of the ground, we recommend a 6" diamter post. The general rule of thumb for footer depth is that about 1/3 of the post should be buried in a concrete footer that is 2' wide. So a 10' tall out of the ground post is 15' in length with 5' buried in the footer. This is a general recommendation because it will depend on your soil and other factors.

Yeah I used 4x6 post and angle iron steel at each corner , has never failed. and a lot more cost effective than all steel posts.
@scotsmanofnewengland77134 ай бұрын
Nice video and informative. The problem in encasing the pole with concrete is eventually over time the chemicals in the concrete will react to the metal causing corrosion. Coat the pipe with some roofing tar/cement or wrap it in plastic.

Would 12’ round aluminum fence posts be adequate for a triangular sail that’s about 10’ on each side. Steel posts are just so expensive but I. Want to stay away from wood for the longevity. Ty
@SHAZEEBOShadeSails4 ай бұрын
In addition to the diameter of the post, you also need to consider the posts' wall thickness. We usually recommend schedule 40, which is about a 1/4" thick. How thick is the wall of the aluminum post? A 10' x 10' triangle shade sail isn't very big. You may be able to get away with using an aluminum post instead of steel, but can you find an aluminum post that is thick enough and has a big enough diameter? Are you using steel cable to tension your shade sail, or is it a small sail with a webbing edge?

@SHAZEEBOShadeSails7 ай бұрын
We're happy that your wooden posts are working out for you. There are many different factors that come into play when deciding what kind of post is right for your situation. A wooden post may work just fine if your sail isn't too big, isn't under strong tension via stainless steel cable and hardware, or you live in a dry area. The sails in this video are very large and use stainless steel cable around the perimeter of each sail (as do all of our custom shade sails) to properly tension the sails. They are also right next to a lagoon and see a lot of moisture in the air. Shade sails like ours pull 200 lbs of pressure at each corner when the sail is at rest. In a storm, this can reach 2,000 lbs of pressure. So, given the application, steel is the best choice here.

Usually, you have to dry out the posts before setting them. That way, they dont bend as they dry out... and 6x6 wood would be ok... just dry it out first.

Question for the budgeted situation: A movable large sunshades at low attitude (like 4-5 feet) at no wind/rain, which one fares better? 1) Redwood fence post in cement in 5 gallon buckets (whole bucket can thus movable by dolly in winter, and don’t need to worry about extreme weather rain, frost, or snow), or 2) U post fence anchored 2 feet in clay soil? In both situations and shades will be used only 3-4 months of the year and store away from the element otherwise. Thanks for the input.
@SHAZEEBOShadeSails Жыл бұрын
Thanks for your question! We are not familiar with your project site and we are not engineers, if you have any concerns you should reach out to a local engineer or contractor. There are a lot of factors to consider when installing your shade sails. How big are the sails you are installing? Will you be using cable tensioned sails and corner hardware like turnbuckles or are you using rope? Will your sails be fully tensioned (very tight, no sag) or do you plan to have some drop in your sail? How thick and how tall is your redwood fence post? A fully tensioned sail using a cable perimeter and turnbuckles can pull 200 lbs of pressure at rest and up to 2,000 lbs or more in a storm. Between the two options you have suggested, the redwood fence is probably better, but this all depends on the thickness of the post, the height of the posy, and the size and number of sails. We wish you the best of luck with your project! Feel free to give us a call if you'd like to discuss this further, 760-818-3291.

I've seen copper log posts used and they looked perfectly fine after years of use. Copper logs are stronger than sawn timber, yet no one mentions it. Shade sails are huge here in Australia, very common, and I've seen them with thick strong Copper log posts. Also we don't get a lot of rain so the timber isn't repeatedly getting water logged and drying out. I think location and environment are very important factors to consider.
