[TowerTalk] Tower Base Mounting Bolts

[Dino Darling]

I'm glad you brought this up.  I've been meaning to ask what the current specs are for anchor bolts used with towers.

What "grade", size, finish, etc.  There is a local company here in Southern CA that sells foundation anchors and will make them to my specs.  I just need to know what those specs are!  :-)

>Unless US Tower recently changed their methods, they sell their base mount bolts as straight galvanized ALLTHREAD stock with double bolts on the immersed end. They stopped using J bolts a few years back. You can make your own j (or L) bolts if you feel the need. I didn't in my base for a HDX572.
