Flagpoles in Ogden

A rail and freight town that turned federal offices, a university and a very large business park into the commercial centre of northern Utah. We cover Ogden and the Weber County area, including Historic 25th Street and Union Station, the Weber State University campus, McKay-Dee Hospital, Business Depot Ogden, the county and city buildings on Washington Boulevard, and the mouth of Ogden Canyon due east with Weber Canyon just south of it.

Wind here. Ogden sits in a canyon-mouth and bench-exposed area, which works out to roughly 115 mph under the code your town uses. That figure decides how wide and how thick the pole has to be, so we check it against your address before we quote. Ogden sizes to about 115 mph like the rest of the Front, and that figure is the least interesting thing about a site here. Ogden Canyon opens due east of the city and the mouth of Weber Canyon sits a few miles south, and both drop a wind onto the east side that the mapped number has nothing to say about, so exposure is decided at the address. The frost line is 30 inches and the ground snow load comes off the state study rather than one figure, which is why the hole here is deeper and wider than the wind alone would suggest. Business Depot Ogden and the rail ground around Union Station are old industrial land, so on those sites a soils check goes into the schedule early rather than turning up at plan review.

Most of the people who call us from Ogden are federal and county offices, university and school buildings, hospital campuses, warehouse and distribution frontage, veterans posts, meetinghouses and municipal facilities.
