I was looking at the Rohn book today and on the guy 
anchors I see that you dig a hole (anchor 4a) 
3' x 3' x 4' deep - you only fill 1.5' of it with
concreate.  This leaves the anchor rod in contact 
with the bare earth.  

What I want to know is - what is normally done with the rod?

Do folks coat it?
Just leave it bare?

Thanks
