Light poles are long tapered poles and single tube structures used in highways. Wind load is the primarydesign force on this structure. In this study a comparison of the strength of steel and FRP light pole is made when windloads act on it. This work makes it possible to extend the study of light pole by varying shapes with two materials.Circular and hexagonal shapes are considered here. Also the variation of stress and deformation of light pole arechecked when stiffener is placed. Stress and deformation results are compared.
