[TowerTalk] Adjustments to Tower Base Pier J-Bolts

into the shape of a "J", but OTOH, the installer cannot put a very slight
bend into them."

Good question.  They're only called "J-Bolts."  In reality, nothing is bent
when used on the larger bolts for Pirod towers over 100 ft.  Instead,
loading plates are welded at several sections along the bolt.
