One more question I should have asked in my last post. How much pull in lbs can I expect on a guy wire. I know for starters I'm looking at 400lbs per guy as that is the tensioning force, so if I have two guys per anchor I'm looking at 800lbs (unless its not linear). Lets assume 6 square feet in 100 mph wind worst case. This will help me determine what size threaded rod to use and how deep to go with the epoxy. By the way this epoxy stuff is super strong per the specs. 73 |
