Rohn says to use 8 #7 rebar (SERIOUSLY! 7/8”!!) ... and then it shows ‘#4
circular ties 2 1/2” OC with 2” cover with 24” laps’
huh?
I’ve always just dug a hole – usually around 3 x 3 x 3 ... put the tower
section in (with temp guys) ... put in a few pieces of 1/2” re bar and been
done with it .... but now I have to follow the Rohn specifications which seem
onerous at best (I know, I know – guys that say “follow it to the letter”) ...
and I’ve no clue what #4 circular tie is. SURELY its not #4 rebar BENT in a
circle!?
Googling so far hasn’t shown me anything that helps.
