Abstract
An apparatus comprising: a pole erected relative to a ground surface and defining a pole axis; a first anchor drive rod connected to the pole and extended, parallel to the pole axis, from the pole to below the ground surface; and a second anchor drive rod connected to the pole and extended, at a non zero angle to the pole axis, from the pole to below the ground surface. Methods of bracing and supporting the pole are also discussed.

A method of supporting a pole that is erected relative to a ground surface and defines a pole axis, the method comprising:
- inserting a first anchor drive rod and a second anchor drive rod below the ground surface;
- and
- connecting each of the first anchor drive rod and the second anchor drive rod to the pole;
- in which the first anchor drive rod is parallel to the pole axis and the second anchor drive rod is at a non zero angle to the pole axis.
A method of bracing a pole that is erected relative to a ground surface and defines a pole axis, in which a first anchor drive rod is connected to the pole and extended below the ground surface parallel to the pole axis, the method comprising:
- inserting a second anchor drive rod below the ground surface at a non zero angle to the pole axis;
- and
- connecting the second anchor drive rod to the pole.
