[TowerTalk] Joining Rohn 25g sections

[Mike Rhodes]

Cut the remnants off & fill them with grout. Get a 25g mounting plate. 
The plate has the female legs welded to it. Drill holes in the concrete 
for 'L' bolts and use concrete epoxy or whatever it is called to secure 
the bolts in the concrete. Use the base and some shims to keep the bolts 
in alignment while the epoxy cures. Better than new when you are thru.

Since the tampered (swaged) end has been cut off at the base the new section will not attach in the conventional manner. Ideas here include using commercial fiberglass tower insulators, having steel look- a -likes made, or even the possibility of turning the sections upside down and welded once inserted. Not sure what effect of having the larger bolt on the topside would have. The tower completed would be 40' and properly guyed. Any ideas? Thanks, Floyd
