Hello All:

I have a question that I thought someone on the reflector might be able =
to answer. I have a 40 foot high ROHN 45G tower. The concrete base was =
sized and installed according to ROHN specs for a house bracketed tower. =
There are two house brackets mounted according to ROHN specs with =
respect to load handling capability. However, they are mounted at 8 feet =
and 16 feet instead of the 16-35 feet called out in the ROHN =
specification.=20

My question is this. I have another section of 45G that I would like to =
add to bring the tower to 50 feet. If I add the section, what would be =
the load handling capacity of the tower with the house brackets left at =
their current heights of 8 and 16 feet? Also, I live in a 70 MPH wind =
zone.

Thanks in advance for the help.

73, Mark...
