totem / frittstående skilt


Explanation:
frittstående skilt, ID-mast, pylon/totem
skilt på stolpe, sokkel, stativ eller mast

http://www.kerr.no/Details.asp?mid=52#frittstående skilt

Kjært barn har mange navn. Frittstående skilt forklarer veldig godt hva dette er.

Mange bruker søyle, men jeg mener dette ikke er korrekt, med bakgrunn i følgende definsjon av søyle fra Wikipedia: En søyle er et bygningselement som tjener til å overføre vekt fra en overliggende struktur mot bakken eller en underliggende struktur.

Da blir det mer korrekt å bruke totem, eller frittstående skilt.

agree  Egil Presttun: Frittstående skilt er ikke så verst. Søyle trenger ikke være feil. Wikipedias definisjon har ikke noe med disse søylene å gjøre. Hva med en vannsøyle? Den støtter i alle fall ikke noen overliggende struktur.

neutral  Jande: A totem is much more than a free standing pole - its a spirit of the people - not all poles can be called totem poles - different types of monuments can be called a totem - http://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Totem
