His homeowner's insurance covers this kind of thing. Put in a claim and get a quote from a professional tower company to repair it. ALL of the tower compressive forces wind up at the bottom of the to

Sounded to me that the damaged section was embedded, and part of the concrete base, adding a bit more to the problem of repair. I cant help but wonder if a piece of angle iron couldn't be welded to t

I would go for insurance, and the crane, and the bucket truck, and then hacksaw off the embedded legs, drill the base and insert a pier pin with epoxy, and use a pier pin base to replace the damaged

Just a thought -- assuming the tower is straight and you just want to strengthen the damaged section -- couldn't you place a form around the tower and encase the damaged section in concrete? 73, Arli

In a previous post I suggested adding a splint or cripple to the leg. Properly done, it should be as strong or stronger than the leg. Your piece of angle iron is on this track but needs to be incorpo

g'day you might need to confirm the situation in the states but generally if the liability is admitted by insurers your entitlement is to "indemnity" restoring the tower to the condition it was in be
