After seeing my planned tower location become literally washed away. A flat area but considered a flood plane. (Got VERY flooded after weekend rain, almost a pond) I'm looking at putting my planned t

Ed: Besides extending the length of the downhill guy, you might consider using an elevated guy anchor. This is a steel I-beam of appropriate dimensions embedded in enough concrete to resist overturni

Ed, Keeping the angle the same is a problem when you have more than one level of guys: either you go to multiple guy points or you have a different angle for one (or 2) sets of guys. -Rex Rex Lint, C

I used 10ft "I" beams years ago for elevated anchors. Using the 60/40 rule, with 6ft in the ground and in concrete and 4ft out of the ground. The corner was cut off and holes drilled into the beam wh

The angle for the lower set of guys would be the most relevant and I'd be surprised if the upper set(s) of guys couldn't live with that, but if it was really an issue he could probably put the equali

Basically try to keep the guy angles the same which can either be measured or calculated. Position and measure it probably going to be the easiest unless you have a transit. Were it me, and it's not,

There is a lot of leverage on elevated anchors and I would avoid using them unless really necessary. You could move the downhill anchor further away from the tower base to maintain the guy angle. I h

Thanks for all the help. I think the elevated anchor approach would not be feasible for me. Moving the point out while maintaining the required angle would work for. The whole installation is a work
