Hi Jim-
If you plan to DIY and are concerned about pole rot, you might consider doing what I did - I went with steel poles. Welded up a steel cage at the base of each to hold the concrete together in the holes and spread the load. I like steel for the poles because it doesn't rot or warp, twist, etc.
Pictures, etc at this web page..
Good luck with your building.
