Does anyone have a the formula for guy posts?
I have a friend that wants tall guy posts (7 feet) for a 100 foot tower so he
can walk under them. I need to show him the stress that is involved in that as
opposed to 2 feet out of the ground.
I've always used the wooden pole rule of thumb; for every foot up you need 3
feet down.
Also, if you have the calculation for the back guy (i.e. earth screws) well my
friends, that would be gravy on my biscuit!
All the best and
73,LeeAK4QA
