  • the anchor 12 has a plurality of blades (earth augers) 12 b on the surface.
  • FIG. 6 is a view for explaining a function of the anchor 12 .
  • the anchor 12 rotates to excavate earth in the ground by the earth auger 12 b , and the entire anchor 12 dives into the ground. In other words, the anchor 12 can be buried in the ground.

  • the hole 12 a is a hole for accommodating the pole 11 .
  • FIG. 7 is a view when the portion 11 - 2 which is a lower step portion of the pole 11 is inserted into the anchor 12 buried in the ground. After the anchor 12 is buried in the ground, one end of the portion 11 - 2 is inserted into the hole 12 a , so that the portion 11 - 2 can stand perpendicular to the ground.

  • the pole 11 serves as a utility pole, and a communication cable or a power cable is bridged over the utility pole.
  • the anchor 12 has a structure having a larger diameter in the lateral direction than a buried portion of a utility pole in related art.
  • ground supporting force is high, and thus, there is an advantage that a distance (depth) for digging a hole is shorter than before. In other words, the depth of the hole is reduced. Even if an inspection is performed visually, the distance for digging is reduced, so that the work period of a step of confirming the buried object can be shortened in the present assembly type utility pole.

  • the replacement method includes:
  • the present replacement method only the lower portion 11 - 2 of the utility pole and the lock member 13 , which are expected to degrade, are replaced.

  • step S 11 of burying the anchor 12 in the ground the anchor 12 is rotated in the axial direction, and the ground is dug with an earth auger installed on the surface of the anchor 12 .
  • the utility pole has a length of about 8.0 to 18 m and is built in a hole by heavy equipment and a human.
  • a hole is dug by hand up to a depth of about 1.5 m, and the hole is dug using the heavy equipment at a depth of 1.5 m or more.
  • the utility pole of about 8.0 to 18 m is lifted, and the utility pole is built in the excavated hole.
  • the utility pole is very long, and thus, requires carefully handling so as not to hit obstacles existing in the work environment such as surrounding buildings, utility poles, guard rails, and the like, and in some cases, requires moving to the excavation hole by a complicated route in order to avoid the obstacles.
  • the utility pole is supported by a tip of the crane, or the like, because the ground is not leveled in the excavation hole, and the angle is adjusted to be vertical as much as possible.
  • This work requires delicate work with a crane, or the like, which is very difficult.
  • soil is inserted into the gap of the excavation hole to perform backfilling, and the construction work is completed by pressing and solidifying with a compactor, or the like.
  • work of digging a hole is similar to the method in related art, but the anchor 12 has a structure that is larger (thicker), in the lateral direction, than the buried portion of the utility pole in related art, and the ground support force is high, so that the distance (depth) for digging a hole is shorter than that in the method in related art.
  • This can shorten the work period.
  • a utility pole of about 8.0 to 9.0 m to which only a communication line is attached about 1.5 m, which is 1 ⁇ 6 of the length of the utility pole, is required to be placed in the ground in the method in related art.
  • the distance (depth) by which the hole is dug by the anchor 12 is shortened, so that the amount of digging work by hand can be reduced, which is efficient.
  • the anchor installation step is performed after the excavation is completed to the target depth.
  • the anchor 12 is installed by being attached to the tip of a pole construction track and buried with rotation of the earth auger. In this event, the anchor 12 enters the ground by pushing and expanding a hole dug in advance in such a manner as to drive a screw into a tree, and thus, backfilling and compaction are unnecessary.
  • a lifting step of lifting the lower portion 11 - 2 of the utility pole and fitting the lower portion 11 - 2 into the anchor 12 is performed using a crane, or the like.
  • the lower portion 11 - 2 of the utility pole is shorter than that of the utility pole in related art. For this reason, a risk of coming into contact with an obstacle is low, and handling is easy, so that it is possible to move to a target position through a relatively simple path.
  • the hole 12 a of the anchor 12 has a structure for fitting the lower portion 11 - 2 of the utility pole, and thus, vertical adjustment is unnecessary when the lower portion 11 - 2 of the utility pole is fitted to the anchor 12 .
  • the construction work is completed only by fitting the end of the upper portion 11 - 1 of the utility pole into the upper end of the lower portion 11 - 2 of the utility pole.
