This summer, I am going to finish the installation of some heavy-duty guy anchors for my two "short" Rohn 25G towers (62' & 68'). Last summer, I dug 6 holes (by hand) that were 3' square by 4' deep.

Brad: Much easier to fill in the ruts that may result. At best, you will be able to haul about 2.0 cubic feet of concrete in a contractors wheelbarrow. Since there's 27 cubic feet in one cubic yard,

Hi Brad, Just a couple thoughts on your concrete problems....Have you considered laying down several sheets of 3/4 inch plywood under the tires of the mixer as he backs up to even the load on your la

Hi, TTers Did somebody try to prepare the concrete (i.e. mix of cement, sand and water)? Is it worth to do it by yourself? Thanks. va3uz = yuri (ready to put up Trylon Titan T-300 56'). List Sponsor:

Brad, Call your local equipment rental shop and ask about a "Georgia Bucket" or "Georgia Buggy". They're huge steerable three-wheeled barrows with motors and 'dead-man' throttles and reverse gears. S

Brad, How far is it from the spot where you'd stop the truck to the holes? Would a concrete pump work? I'm thinking of the type you might have seen in commercial work, pouring highways or big slabs.

In our area you're allowed something like 8 minutes per yard. The drivers will usually give you some slack too. You might want to consider a line-pump. It's a lot cheaper than the snorkel-type and ca

I'm not a concrete guy, but I figure 27 cubic feet of concrete per yard. A 3x3x4 hole is 36 cubic feet. 6 holes = 216 cubic feet or 8 yards of concrete. How do you get by with a 1/2 yard of concrete

Try your local Equipment rental store. Out here they have motorized carts that hold 3/4 yard. You stand on the back & drive them to where you need to pour. They also have a motorized dump on them. 73
