No expert here, but... The K7NV analysis is magnificent and really gives some basic understanding! I wish Rohn would publish some of the same stuff. I also wish they would make the pier pin option mo

Regarding the pier pin base, I agree that in theory it's the way to go, and that's what I have on my 110' Rohn 55. However, I've often wondered if the Rohn flat-plate pier pin base used by most hams

I think Dick has a good point. I've always assumed that it would not move until the last 5 percent of wind loading, and maybe not even then, given the rise in downward forces. I think if I had it to

Yes he does, and one which I've mentioned here in the past. I think that the more important feature of a pier pin base is the tilt freedom to keep the downward force on the legs equalized, rather tha

Commercial towers have no fancy thrust bearing. It's usually just a very heavy but small diameter plate that is just large enough to accept the angled in tower legs, which are welded to the plate in

One factor not mentioned is that it is unlikely a significant moment can be transmitted by the two plates in contact. One side of the plate will lift as soon as the base moment exceeds the downforce
