I've looked through the Rohn catalog but can't find the effective wind area data for Rohn tower sections. I'd like data for 25G, 45G, 55G and 65G, although my immediate need is for 65G and 25G, in th

I'm not looking for the antenna wind area that the tower can support. I'm looking for the maximum wind area of the 25G thorugh 65G tower sections themselves. _________________________________________
Clay, It's listed indirectly on the older Rohn tower drawings I have here. For instance, on Dwg C-630625-R (for rohn 25), it tabulates: "Wind Load per lineal foot of tower at the horizontal wind pres
Clay, if you can find an old (maybe 20 years ago) Rohn catalog, they listed the section wind loads in pounds per lineal foot, based on 70mph wind. You can convert those numbers into equivalent sq ft
Clay, OK, I found my July '87 Rohn catalog, and extracted the following data: Area (square ft/lin ft) Rohn 25 - 0.254 Rohn 45 - 0.293 Rohn 55 - 9.334 Rohn 65 - 0.459 I presume this is effective area,
Oops, let's make that 0.334 for R55... geo data: Hope support. http://www.radiancorp.com/ROHNNET/rohnnet2001/catalog/html/gtowers.html for -- -- -- -- -- This message is for the designated recipient
Thanks to all who took the time to answer my question. I had done rough calculations and was using 0.25 sq.ft./lin.ft for 25G and 0.45 for 65G. I figured there must be Rohn numbers to double check m
