How to Use the Specification Builder

1

Enter Your Zip Code

The tool looks up the ASCE 7-10 basic wind speed for your project location from a database of 41,375 U.S. zip codes. Set your Exposure Category (B, C, or D) and Risk Category (I through IV) to calculate the effective design wind speed.

2

Configure Your Flagpole

Choose pole type, height, butt diameter, wall thickness, finish, and foundation. The tool color-codes each configuration against your wind speed: green (recommended), amber (marginal), or red (below spec). Add beacon illumination to specify an Illuminator Series integrated product.

3

Export Your Specification

Review the complete 3-part CSI specification with inline dropdown customization for field-level details. Print, save as PDF, or download as a Word document (.docx) for your project files.

Specification Reference

Flagpole Specification Generator: CSI Section 107500 Reference

FlagCo's free flagpole specification generator creates complete CSI MasterFormat Section 107500 specifications for commercial projects. Configure pole type, height, wind rating, foundation, beacon illumination, and finish per NAAMM FP 1001-07 and ASCE 7-10. Built by FlagCo, a veteran-owned manufacturer in Acworth, Georgia.

How It Works

How the Flagpole Specification Generator Works

The Spec Builder above generates a complete 3-part CSI Section 107500 specification in two steps. First, enter your project zip code to look up the ASCE 7-10 wind speed from a database of all 41,375 U.S. zip codes. The tool then adjusts for your site's Exposure Category (B for urban/suburban, C for open terrain, D for flat/unobstructed coastline) and Risk Category (I through IV, where IV is essential facilities like hospitals and fire stations). The result is an effective design wind speed specific to your project conditions, not just a generic regional value.

Next, configure one or more flagpoles with type, height, diameter, wall thickness, finish, foundation, illumination, and accessories. The tool compares each configuration against your effective design wind speed and color-codes the results: green for recommended (flagged rating meets or exceeds the requirement), amber for marginal (unflagged rating adequate, but flagged rating falls short), and red for below specification. This lets you quickly identify which pole configurations work for your project.

FlagCo is the only commercial flagpole manufacturer with an interactive CSI specification generator. Other manufacturers provide static PDF templates that must be manually edited. The Spec Builder produces a fully formatted specification from your configured inputs, with no manual formatting required.

Key Features

The Spec Builder includes everything an architect or specifier needs to produce a project-ready CSI Section 107500 document.

Wind Speed Lookup

Built-in ASCE 7-10 database covering every U.S. zip code. Returns the basic wind speed (3-second gust, 33 ft above ground) and the NAAMM FP 1001-07 flagpole rating for your project location.

Four Pole Types

External Stationary, External Revolving, Internal Winch, and Internal Cam Cleat. Each type auto-populates the correct halyard system, hardware, and door configuration. Selecting a beacon automatically designates the pole as an Illuminator Series product.

How to Write a Flagpole Specification in 6 Steps

Writing a CSI Section 107500 flagpole specification starts with determining your project's wind speed requirement. The Spec Builder walks you through each decision, but here is the complete workflow architects and specifiers follow.

Step 1: Determine the Wind Speed

Enter your project zip code into the Spec Builder above. The tool returns the ASCE 7-10 basic wind speed and NAAMM FP 1001-07 flagpole rating. If the project is in a Special Wind Region, verify with the local Authority Having Jurisdiction. You can also use FlagCo's Wind Speed Tool for a standalone lookup with an interactive map.

Step 2: Select the Pole Type

Choose based on security, height, and operational requirements. External Halyard (stationary or revolving) for standard applications; Internal Winch for taller poles and high-security sites; Internal Cam Cleat for a cost-effective internal option on poles up to 40 feet.

Step 3: Configure Height and Structure

Select height (15 to 80 ft), butt diameter, wall thickness, and number of sections. The tool shows only configurations that meet or exceed the wind speed from Step 1. Larger diameters and thicker walls increase wind capacity.

Step 4: Choose Foundation and Finish

Ground sleeve (standard for new construction) or shoe base (surface mount to existing pad). Finish options include mill aluminum, clear anodized, or powder coat. All steel ground sleeves include a factory-welded grounding provision.

Step 5: Add Illumination and Accessories

If the project requires flagpole lighting, select a beacon with AC or solar power. The specification automatically adds conduit or solar panel requirements to Part 2 and wiring details to Part 3. Use the Beacon Resources page for product details.

Step 6: Review and Export

Use the inline dropdowns to fine-tune field-level details (flash collar type, halyard material, grounding provisions, compliance clauses). Preview the full 3-part specification, then print, save as PDF, or download as a Word document. Use the Cut Sheet Builder for a branded product cut sheet to pair with your spec.

Pole Types

Flagpole Types Available in the Specification Generator

FlagCo manufactures four commercial flagpole types, all using 6063-T6 aluminum shafts per ASTM B 221, cone-tapered per the manufacturer's standard rate of taper. Select a type based on security requirements, height, and operational preference. When a beacon is selected, the tool automatically designates the pole as an Illuminator Series product, ensuring you are specifying an integrated pole-and-light system rather than separate components.

External Stationary

Fixed truck with cast aluminum pulley, external rope halyard, and cast aluminum cleat. The most economical option for low-security applications.

15 to 35 ft External Halyard No Beacon Option

External Revolving

360-degree revolving truck with sealed stainless steel ball bearings, external rope halyard, and cast aluminum cleat. Prevents flag wrap in variable winds.

20 to 80 ft External Halyard Beacon Compatible

Internal Winch

Concealed stainless steel cable halyard routed internally. Mechanical winch with auto-locking brake, accessed through a milled access door with stainless steel hinge and cam lock.

20 to 80 ft Internal Halyard Beacon Compatible

Internal Cam Cleat

Concealed rope halyard routed internally with spring-loaded cam cleat lock. Access door milled from shaft with stainless steel hinge and cam lock. A cost-effective internal option for shorter poles.

20 to 40 ft Internal Halyard Beacon Compatible

Foundation Set Depths and Overall Lengths

Ground-set flagpoles are installed in a steel ground sleeve (or PVC for External Stationary poles) embedded in a reinforced concrete foundation below grade. Set depths follow NAAMM FP 1001-07 standards. The overall pole length equals the exposed height plus the set depth. All steel sleeves include a factory-welded grounding provision for lightning protection.

Exposed Height (ft) Set Depth (ft) Overall Length (ft)
15217
20222
252.527.5
30333
353.538.5
40444
454.549.5
50555
60666
70777
80888
Ground sleeve (below-grade) is the standard foundation for new construction. Shoe base (surface mount with anchor bolts) is specified when below-grade installation is not feasible. The Spec Builder includes both foundation options with the correct details for your pole configuration.

Wind Rating Ranges by Pole Type

NAAMM FP 1001-07 wind ratings depend on pole type, height, butt diameter, and wall thickness. The table below shows the range of "with nylon flag" ratings available for each type. Unflagged ratings are higher. Use the Spec Builder's zip code lookup to determine your project's required ASCE 7-10 wind speed, then configure a pole that meets or exceeds that rating.

Pole Type Heights (ft) Butt Dia. Range (in) Wall Thickness (in) With Nylon Flag (mph)
External Stationary15 to 353 to 50.125 to 0.18885 to 170
External Revolving20 to 804 to 120.125 to 0.37585 to 170
Internal Winch20 to 805 to 120.125 to 0.37585 to 170
Internal Cam Cleat20 to 405 to 80.125 to 0.2585 to 170
All "with flag" wind ratings reference a nylon flag of the recommended size for the pole height. Polyester flags produce higher wind loads due to heavier fabric weight. If your project specifies polyester flags, consult FlagCo for adjusted ratings. Use FlagCo's Cut Sheet Builder to see the exact wind rating for any specific pole configuration.

  • Cross-reference product catalogs for available configurations
  • No automatic beacon or foundation coordination
  • Copy-paste errors between projects common

FlagCo Specification Generator

  • Interactive tool with real-time configuration
  • Built-in ASCE 7-10 wind speed lookup (41,375 zip codes)
  • Only shows configurations that meet your wind requirement
  • Beacon specs auto-populate in Products and Execution
  • Inline dropdowns for field-level customization
  • Print, PDF, or Word export with zero manual formatting
Maintenance

Maintenance Schedule (Part 3, Section 3.9)

The generated specification includes a maintenance schedule in Part 3, Section 3.9. Regular maintenance extends the service life of the flagpole and prevents premature failure. The schedule below is included in every specification produced by the Spec Builder.

Monthly
Halyard Inspection: check for wear, fraying, and UV degradation. Replace if damage is found.
Semi-Annual
Visual Inspection: check pole shaft for dents, corrosion, or finish damage. Inspect cleat, snap hooks, and flag attachments for wear.
Annual
Internal Mechanism Check: inspect winch brake, cam cleat spring, and cable tension on internal halyard poles. Verify access door lock function.
Post-Storm
Structural Inspection: check plumb, halyard function, and structural integrity after any storm exceeding 75% of rated wind speed.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Flagpole Specification Generator

Common questions about CSI Section 107500 flagpole specifications, the Spec Builder tool, and how to use the Spec Builder for commercial projects.

What engineering standards does the generated specification reference?
The specification references NAAMM FP 1001-07 (Guide Specifications for Design of Metal Flagpoles), ASCE 7-10 (Minimum Design Loads, defining basic wind speeds as a 3-second gust at 33 feet above ground with a 50-year mean recurrence interval), ASTM B 221 (governing the 6063-T6 aluminum alloy used for flagpole shafts), and the Aluminum Design Manual (ADM) for structural design. Additional references include NFPA 780 for lightning protection, NFPA 70 (NEC) for electrical work, and 4 USC Section 7 (U.S. Flag Code).
What wind speed standard does FlagCo use for flagpole specifications?
FlagCo flagpole wind load ratings are tested and published per NAAMM FP 1001-07 at Exposure Category C. The Specification Builder looks up base wind speeds by ZIP code from ASCE 7-10 Figure 26.5-1A (Risk Category II, 700-year mean recurrence interval, Exposure C). Two adjustments may then be applied: an Exposure Category adjustment using velocity pressure exposure coefficients (Kz) from ASCE 7-10 Table 26.6-1, calculated as the square root of Kz-site divided by Kz-C; and a Risk Category adjustment using approximate MRI multipliers (Cat I: x0.78 / 300-yr MRI; Cat II: x1.00 baseline; Cat III: x1.07 / 1,700-yr MRI; Cat IV: x1.15 / 3,000-yr MRI).
When will ASCE 7-22 replace ASCE 7-10 for flagpole specifications?
ASCE 7-22 is the latest edition of the wind speed standard, published in 2022. The 2024 International Building Code (IBC) references ASCE 7-22, and states are adopting it on different timelines through 2025 and 2026. However, NAAMM FP 1001-07 (the flagpole design standard) has not been updated to reference ASCE 7-22 and still cites ASCE 7-05. FlagCo uses ASCE 7-10 as a practical middle ground: newer and more accurate data than 7-05, presented in the same wind speed format the flagpole industry uses. FlagCo is preparing to support dual-rated specifications (ASCE 7-10 and 7-22) as state adoption progresses. Check with your local Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) for which edition is currently required in your area.
What halyard types are available for FlagCo aluminum flagpoles?
FlagCo offers four halyard types: External Stationary (fixed cleat, external rope halyard), External Revolving (360-degree revolving truck with external rope halyard), Internal Winch (concealed wire cable halyard with mechanical auto-locking winch accessed via milled access door), and Internal Cam Cleat (concealed rope halyard with spring-loaded cam cleat mechanism accessed via milled access door). Internal halyard types require a minimum 6-inch butt diameter; the 5-inch butt is excluded because the access door hole removes too much shaft material at that size.
How do I choose between External Halyard and Internal Halyard pole types?
External halyard poles (External Stationary and External Revolving) use an exposed rope halyard on the outside of the pole. They are simpler, less expensive, and easier to maintain, but the halyard is accessible to anyone. Internal halyard poles (Internal Winch and Internal Cam Cleat) route the halyard inside the pole shaft, with a lockable access door at the base. Choose internal halyard when vandalism or unauthorized flag removal is a concern, which is common for government buildings, schools, and commercial properties in public areas.
What halyard specifications are used by pole size?
External halyard poles: butt diameter 4 inches or less, 5/16 inch (8 mm) solid-braid polyester or nylon rope, UV-stabilized, 1,200 lb minimum breaking strength; butt diameter 5 to 7 inches, 3/8 inch (9.5 mm) solid-braid, 2,500 lb minimum; butt diameter 8 inches or larger, 1/2 inch (12.7 mm) solid-braid, 4,000 lb minimum. Internal Winch poles, 1/8 inch (3.2 mm) stainless steel wire cable, 7x19 construction, 2,000 lb minimum breaking strength. Internal Cam Cleat poles, 3/8 inch (9.5 mm) solid-braid polyester rope, UV-stabilized, 2,500 lb minimum breaking strength.
What flag sizes are recommended for each flagpole height?
FlagCo recommended flag sizes by mounting height: 15 ft, 3x5 ft (15 sq ft); 20 ft, 4x6 ft (24 sq ft); 25 ft, 5x8 ft (40 sq ft); 30 to 35 ft, 6x10 ft (60 sq ft); 40 to 45 ft, 8x12 ft (96 sq ft); 50 to 55 ft, 10x15 ft (150 sq ft); 60 to 75 ft, 12x18 ft (216 sq ft); 80 ft, 15x25 ft (375 sq ft).
What are the available finish options for FlagCo aluminum flagpoles?
FlagCo flagpole finish options are: Satin (standard mechanical finish), Clear Anodized, Dark Bronze Anodized, Black Anodized, and Powder Coat (custom color, specify RAL or equivalent color designation). All anodized finishes meet AAPA standards. Powder coat finish requires color designation at time of order.
Which FlagCo Beacon products are compatible with which flagpole configurations?
External Revolving poles, heights 20 to 35 ft: External Beacon (800 lumens, suits 6x10 ft flag, max pole-top diameter 5.5 in). External Revolving, 40 to 100 ft: External Beacon Plus (1,100 lumens, suits 10x15 ft flag). External Stationary poles do not support Beacon illumination. Internal Winch, 20 to 35 ft: 3 in top, 6.5 in IH Beacon (800 lm); 3.5 in top, 6.5 in IH Beacon (800 lm); 4 in top, 8 in IH Beacon (800 lm). Internal Winch, 40 to 50 ft: 3.5 in top, 6.5 in IH Plus Beacon (1,100 lm); 4 in top, 8 in IH Plus Beacon (1,100 lm). Internal Winch, 55 to 100 ft: 4 in top, 10.5 in IH Quad Plus Beacon (1,900 lm, suits 30x50 ft flag). Internal Cam Cleat, 20 to 35 ft: Cam Beacon (800 lm). Internal Cam Cleat, 40 to 50 ft: Cam Beacon Plus (1,100 lm). Beacon power options are 12V DC and 110V AC. Solar beacon variants are self-contained with automatic dusk-to-dawn operation.
What is the difference between a ground sleeve and a shoe base foundation?
Ground Set foundations use a steel ground sleeve (or PVC for External Stationary poles) embedded in a reinforced concrete foundation below grade. Set depths range from 2 feet for a 15-foot pole to 8 feet for an 80-foot pole per NAAMM FP 1001-07. Shoe Base is a surface-mount option that bolts the pole to an existing concrete pad using anchor bolts. Ground set is the standard foundation for new construction; shoe base is used when below-grade installation is not feasible. All steel ground sleeves include a factory-welded grounding provision for lightning protection.
What foundation specifications does FlagCo use for ground sleeve installations?
Ground sleeves are steel, gauge 11 ga (0.120 inch wall) for sleeve OD up to 10 inches, and 7 ga (0.179 inch wall) for sleeve OD 12 inches and larger. The sleeve extends 6 inches above the concrete surface. Concrete pier diameter equals sleeve OD plus 16 inches (8-inch clearance each side). Representative sleeve OD and set depths by pole type and butt diameter: External Stationary, 15 ft/3 in butt: 4 in OD x 24 in; 20 ft/5 in: 6 in x 24 in; 30 ft/5 in: 6 in x 36 in; 35 ft/5 in: 6 in x 42 in. External Revolving, 40 ft/8 in: 10 in x 48 in; 50 ft/10 in: 12 in x 60 in; 60 ft/12 in: 15 in x 72 in; 70 ft/12 in: 15 in x 84 in; 80 ft/12 in: 15 in x 96 in. Internal Winch and Cam Cleat follow the same table as External Revolving for overlapping sizes.
What is the recommended maintenance schedule for FlagCo flagpoles?
FlagCo recommends the following maintenance schedule: Monthly, inspect halyard for wear, fraying, or UV degradation; inspect flag for damage and replace as needed. Semi-Annually, inspect truck assembly for smooth rotation; lubricate moving parts per manufacturer recommendation; inspect finish for corrosion, chalking, or damage. Annually, for internal halyard poles open the access door and inspect the internal mechanism, lubricate winch or cam cleat components, inspect wire cable for kinks, corrosion, or broken strands, and check grounding conductor continuity. For external halyard poles, inspect cleat attachment and fasteners, inspect flash collar seal, and check grounding conductor continuity. After Severe Weather (any storm exceeding 75% of the rated wind speed), inspect the flagpole for plumb, inspect halyard and flag, and check all hardware. Clean the shaft annually using mild soap solution and a soft cloth; do not use abrasive pads.
What is CSI Section 107500 and what does the specification cover?
CSI MasterFormat Section 107500 covers flagpoles and related accessories. A formal specification is required on most commercial, institutional, and government projects that include flagpole installation. The specification is organized in three parts: Part 1 General (summary, references including ASCE 7-10 and NAAMM FP 1001-07, submittals, quality assurance); Part 2 Products (materials including 6063-T6 aluminum alloy shaft, hardware, finish options, beacon illumination products); Part 3 Execution (examination, installation, field quality control including a one-week test-flag deployment, cleaning, protection, and the maintenance schedule). FlagCo's Spec Builder produces a complete 3-part specification following CSI formatting standards, with the pole type, material, height, wind load rating, foundation, finish, and accessories pre-configured for your project.
How does the Spec Builder determine the wind speed for my project location?
The Spec Builder includes a built-in ASCE 7-10 wind speed lookup covering all 41,375 U.S. zip codes. Enter your project zip code and the tool returns the basic wind speed and the corresponding NAAMM FP 1001-07 flagpole rating (85, 90, 100, 110, 120, 130, 150, or 170 mph). Wind ratings are published for both flagged (with a nylon flag attached) and unflagged conditions. If your project is in an ASCE 7-10 Special Wind Region, the tool displays a warning to verify requirements with the local Authority Having Jurisdiction. For a standalone wind speed lookup with an interactive map, use FlagCo's Wind Speed Tool.
Can I specify multiple flagpoles in one project?
Yes. The Spec Builder supports adding multiple individually configured flagpoles to a single project specification. Each pole can have its own type, height, diameter, wall thickness, finish, foundation type, illumination, and accessories. The generated specification numbers each pole sequentially in Part 2 (Products) and addresses all poles in the Part 3 (Execution) installation and maintenance sections.
What output formats does the Spec Builder support?
The tool offers three output options: a formatted on-screen preview with print-optimized CSS (UI controls are hidden for a clean document layout), a print-to-PDF option using the browser's built-in print function, and a Word document (.docx) download for editing in Microsoft Word or other word processors. All outputs include the complete 3-part CSI specification with your configured pole details.
Does the specification address Buy American Act and BABA compliance?
Yes. The Quality Assurance section (Part 1, Section 1.7) includes inline selections for Buy American Act (41 USC 8302) and Build America, Buy America Act (PL 117-58, Sec. 70914) compliance. These can be toggled on or off depending on your project's federal funding requirements. FlagCo manufactures all flagpoles in Acworth, Georgia. For BABA-funded infrastructure projects, see FlagCo's BABA-compliant federal supplier page for sample compliance language, the BABA vs. Buy American Act comparison, and FlagCo's domestic content declaration letter for submittals.
