[TowerTalk] Rebar Cage

[Ted & Joyce Wilhelm]

Am fixing to put the 55 foot free standing crankup back up...Whats the
rule of thumb for building the rebar cage to go in the hole....At the
previous QTH I bent it around the uprights but have heard a couple guys
say that was a lot of extra work and not necessary just to take straight
horizontal pieces and tie them together at the corners...Whats the
consensus????Also how many Vertical and horizontal pieces would be best,
hole is about 4.5 feet squre by 5.5 deep...Also see something in U>S>
Tower catolog 3/8 O Tie Bars @ 24" O.C.....Have no idea as to what they
are refering to and didn't use it previously just some VERY large
washers at the bottom of the anchor bolts....Thanks,
Ted K9HUH    "HUH"
