I am in the process of planning a 100' 45G installation and am trying to
get some ideas on what to use for guy anchors. The ROHN manual
recommends that I use two sets of guys (one at 85', the other at about
40') and terminate those about 80' from the base of the tower into
anchors.
The soil here is typical southern red clay with a little bit of rock.
Of course, I would like the best optimization of cost and safety for the
guy anchors, but never having used anything but the "screw in" type (on
a 25G) I'm not sure what to use. Any thoughts would be much
appreciated.
Regards,
Rush Johnson
