[TowerTalk] TOWER BASE

[Eugene Jensen]

3 factors's come to mind. 1: what the wind speed area your area in and what
is the load you are planning for the top. Any ideal who built it and if you
have a few pictures maybe I would recognize it. 73 Gene K2QWD

Subject: [TowerTalk] TOWER BASE


            I have a 90 steel self supporting tower that I inherited. The
legs at the base are 56" point to point
            each leg of the triangle.  This was a commercial tower when two
way radio was big.  Tubular steel.

            Anyone have a sketch or drawing of the base they may have used
for a similar installation.  At this
            time I am looking at what it might take for the concrete and
steel.  If I persue this I will get an
            engineer to design the steel, unless someone might have what I
am looking for. 

            Thank you for your help.       WA3GGM
