I am putting in 90 feet of Rohn 45. My hole will be per the Rohn dimensions on
drawing C610621. I am confused on the rebar situation that they show. Of
course, they are covering 15 different sized foundations with this same
drawing.
1. Do I really use rebar for my CB2 hole? If so, what are the lateral ties
shown? Are they rebar or wire? I presume they hold the four vertical rebar
pieces rigid? If that is there only purpose, could I not just push the four
vertical pieces into the wet concrete afterwards, making sure I got at least 3
inches below the concrete surface and did not come out the bottom?
2. Since the drawing also covers the foundation for Rohn 25, I never heard of
anyone putting rebar into a 25 hole around this area. Could someone please
clarify this for me.
3. Below the 4 foot level bottom of the hole, how much more do I have to dig to
put gravel for drainage? I have a pile of 5/8" minus I use for filling in the
driveway holes that I would use.
