I'm getting ready to extend the height of a 30' Rohn 25 bracketed tower to about 70' and I would like to use raised guy stays ( I think that is what they are called ) to get the guy wires above head

The best material is I-beam (eye-beam, H-beam). It's much stronger than round elevated guys. Put 60% of the guy in the ground and 40% above the ground and you'll be in good shape. Cheers, Steve K7LXC

check scrap yards when sourcing - it is a heck of a lot cheaper -found some nice ones rusting was able to obtain for a song once upon a cycle....as hams we need not be exactly critical in what we wan

I-beams are the way to go. But let's see here, guy wires above head height = say 6 feet. Therefore 40% of x = 6 feet. If I recall my algebra correctly x would = 15 feet. Which would equate to 9 feet

Yep - check the scrap yards before shopping for new "I" beams. In either case - get the scrap/steel yard to have a torch man cut one end of each "I" beam at about a 45 deg angle. Then after you drill

Don't scrimp on the concrete though. In average soil it takes much more concrete than one might think to keep the post from slowly leaning over when under constant tipover force of a few hundred poun

Joe: I find it amazing that you can determine the soil bearing capacity at the guy's site without any test or default basis. Based on the worst case UBC soil lateral bearing and isolated post capacit

I have seen guy stays placed at a slight angle away from the tower and another guy (or extention of the guy) down at a sharp angle. Now would this arrangement be OK? Chris opr VE7HCB

Chris: Yes you can back guy the guy post. This is getting more complicated though and additional work. If designed properly the cantilever elevated guy post will be adequate. Actually the 60/40 ratio

Hi Bill, I know you are in favor of hiring PEs for everything, and that's a good course, but not necessarily the only valid one. Sometimes overkill is cheaper than a PE, and just as comforting. I've

John: The key point in your post is that you had a P.E. review it. That individual has experience with the soil type and values in your area and could make an engineering estimate of the soil capacit
