By the time the tower rotates far enough to have the torque arms do any good you have already used up most of the allowable lattice strength. Commercial installations don't use "torque arms" as hams

Thanks for your reply Steve. See comments and more questions intersperced below. N4KG OK, I can follow that, but what if a base plate and pier pin is used to allow the bottom of the tower to rotate t

This MUST be related to tower height. In other words, the top of a 150' Rohn 25 tower can probably rotate 25 deg. or more before reaching it's twisting limit. In this case, I believe even the short R

I'm not convinced that in the case of multiple large loads up the side of a tower, that a pier pin base relieves the tower of much twisting torque. The reason for this is that the side loads often te

Well, Tom you hit the nail on the head. When Rohn was moving from one EIA-222 revision to the next one (somewhere around rev. C I think), they recalculated the 'torque arms' and found that they reall

NO TORQUE OR TORQUE ARMS. When the Rohn 45 goes up the top section will be guyed 6 ways. I would not have lost the last tower when tree hit Guy wires. Live and Learn. -- 73 Brad KZ5Q Long Live CW Pre

I will use either a pier pin or base BOLTED down, but no section in concrete. I have seen too many things go wrong with the poured in place section. Things like freeze splits, and corrosion. One inst

Thanks Steve for your excellent and informative reply. All 7 of my towers are in the earth, no concrete, but Alabama clay gets just about as hard as concrete in summer and I have limestone about 3 ft
