- One topic that seems to be missing from all the tower discussions I see here lately is the fact that it is not simply the number of square feet of antenna that loads the tower, but how those square f

- Hi Stan and the gang. I've been busy and missed the beginnings of this thread. Is there tower loading/modeling software out there for amateur applications?? Maybe something with Rohn 25/45/55 stuff?

- All of these discussions on tower/antenna loading have pretty much assumed a steady-state constant max wind velocity and max windload from which you can compare resulting stresses with the manufactur

- As I recall from engineering classes in college, the problem with the bridge was it became a resonant structure, and therefore required very little energy to get it swinging back and forth. It had to

- That's exactly the point. Go watch, for example, a long boom flopping with the gusts, or the tower twisting and untwisting when hammered by the rotor slop stops being hit. Whatever the tower/antenna

- Hi Bruce, Here is an example of what I mean when I say I haven't seen the calculations I think we need. Assume a Rohn 25 tower with the rotator mounted in the normal place, about 3 feet below the to
