I have fabricated several rebar cages for crank ups like HyGain HD-70 and concrete guy point for Rohn 45 towers, but I now am trying to fabricate a rebar cage for a US Towers HDX-589 MDPL. I had no t

We put up an HDX-5106 in a 6 foot diameter circular hole 9 feet deep. We simply ordered a round rebar cage from a local rebar supplier and it arrived all wired together. There was no problem with it

Gary: There are several tools that will let you wrap tie wires around rebar snuggly enough to prevent the cage from falling apart as it is dropped into place (usually with the hlep of the excavator m

Gary, When I saw someone build a pretty large rebar cage previously, the cage was so large that it would flex from side to side and had problems staying vertical and plumb. This was fixed by bracing

I forgot to mention that on my cage there were some gratuitous diagonal braces that were evidently only for rigidity pre-concrete. These guys build these cages all day long. They know what they're do

Hi, TTrs; The cage must withstand the forces of concrete flowing around it during the pour. It must also be prevented from moving during the pour. Flowing concrete pushes real hard! I built my cage o

TT: To hold my tower's cage in place (it was a bit wobbly in the hole) prior to the concrete pour, I wire tied the top horizontal rebar pieces to the wooden form above ground. I drove few 16d duplex

Don't cut them after the pour is completed; you'll have small pieces of steel wire exposed to the elements and they'll corrode and expand, possibly damaging the top of the concrete and leaving a way

Yep, this will be heavy. The US Tower website shows the rebar cage for the HDX589 as using #9 rebar at the corners and not #13. You are apparantly overdesigning it for some reason. Even the HXD5106 u
