Hi Mike,
I'm not sure I follow your description but you mention spreaders in a
triangle. Are you meaning, rather than a tubular spreader arm, you've
got some that are made of three individual Fiberglas pieces that are
webbed together to form a single spreader.
The first thing that came to mind is the architecture of the spreaders
used in the Manitoba Gem Quad. Here's a pretty good look at some
product literature:

I ran across an antenna called the Diamond Quad -- no relation to the
Diamond antennas around today. The fiberglass pieces come in a tube
over 100" long, some are single spreaders, some are three spreaders in
a triangle to make them more rigid. While it has never been installed,
the fiberglass is splintering. I have not located the boom yet. Anyone
know anything about this antenna? --Mike, WV2ZOW
