Steve:

I checked my catalog, and there is no "Prime Directive" mentioned anywhere
in it. Instead, I find quite detailed engineering specifications on the
tower legs, tower braces and the tower sections themselves. The only reason
that I can fathom for providing these data is so one could utilize their
product in situations not covered in their tables.

    When "you run off the tables in the catalog" you're doing something the
manufacturer does not recommend. You will be violating the LXC Prime
Directive of "DOing what the manufacturer says" and your results are
virtually guaranteed to fail.
