Very small projected area. ( 5-10 square ft at the top)
Sure - bolt them together.
Are you asking about its suitability? You need to take your local
windspeed conditions into account. If you don't know, check out

(http://www.championradio.com/windspeed.php) .
Then you need to know what the windload capacity of the SSV at that
windspeed is. Then you'll know how suitable it is. You might get away with 5
sq.ft.
but ten square feet is a moderately large load. I'd err on the conservative
side of things if I were you.
