One last round of information gathering about polycrete if anyone has used
it or knows of commercial applications. It is a commercial produce used by
power companies to install power poles and billboards.
It appears to be sufficient for here with a 5X5X5 hole in solid granite to
hold a HG-52-SS. The factory tower base touches the hole on all three sides
(meaning, the square hole is only slightly bigger than the triangular
base).
I'm being told by a commercial user that it is minimally 5 times as strong
as packed dirt. Considering polecrete as I can get it at no cost with the
use of a commercial boom truck install possibility. It expands to lock into
the rock walls.
Tower is rated at only 6 feet load will carry only a 2 el quad.
Any knowledge would be much appreciated.
