Fred, I have to disagree with your statement below. Force doesn't change as the guy anchor is moved closer to the tower. The direction of the force changes. At a guy angle of 45 degrees the force is

But, the more horizontal you make the guy, the less the downward force the guys place on the tower. This reduction in compression force is good and could perhaps be traded off for an increase in ante

Tom: I think that Fred's original response is indeed be correct, as is yours. You are relating a different aspect of the situation. Fred is not referring to the tension that you may crank up in the g

Are you guys sure about this? So from what you fellows have all concluded, I can feel safe installing a two foot base tapered tower 100 feet tall because the only tension will be the same force as th

Hi Mike, I'm not referring to the pretensioning of the guys either, although their tension plus the windload force must be taken into consideration. I know that Rohn specifies, typically, pretension

No. You have not balanced the horizontal force, so your system is not equilibrium. Force = mass times acceleration. There will be an acceleration of the tower due to the net 29.3 lb force (your 100 l

Hi Tom, You have the triangle upside down. No way! If that was true, we'd all be using self-support towers with tiny base piers for TV broadcast towers!! Our uniform cross section towers would stand

Boy, it sure doesn't take much to get a thread going, does it? Brings to mind a "Los Angeles commuting discussion" we had on the local repeater several years ago. Seems I said something like, "I am g
