- Sorry for the elementary question, but my knowledge of civil engineering went right out of my brain the day I left my last class approximately two life times ago. If you have a tower rated to hold 30

- The relationship is NOT linear, although in Bob's particular example, a more accurate answer isn't very far from the number he would get if he did assume it was linear. The charts in the Rohn catalog

- I bet that it is somewhere between 10 and 30 square foot! My guess is that it would favor the lower number as it seems these things get worser faster with stronger forces (must be a geometric progres

- I recall a discussion of a similar ilk, but instead of varying wind speed, if one varies the height of tower. Ie., 10 sqr feet at 50ft vs 60ft? Assume no other addition of winload, ie., in an ideal w
