[TowerTalk] Wind Loading Question

[Saad Mahaini]

Hello,

I like to install a small (A3) tribander half way (@ 36 +/- ft)
up my TriEx 72 ft crankup using a rotatable side mount.  Currently,
there is a TH11, 40M rotatable dipole, and 2M vertical on top.

My question is the added wind loading.  How does the appx 5 sq ft
loading of the A3 (4.36 for antenna, and balance for mount, etc)
@ 36 ft translate at the top?

Appreciate the help.
