hello everyone fanman here,
well ive embarked on another tower building venture,and im looking for some input on what i should do, and how i should do it, so here it goes, ive moved here within the last year and ive finially got around to putting a tower togehter, i want to make it 60 to 80 feet freestanding graduated pole tower, im a little curious about the foundation, is there anybody that knows what kind of loads this tower will see? ive got a 16 feet dia axial flux machine for the top of it, later i want to up size to a 20 foot dia machine, so that would be the max prop it would see, im also going to make it a tilt up tower, i was thinking about 10 to 12 yards of concrete buried about 5 feet deep, the tower pipes are going to be a top sect. 6 inch second sect,10 inch and the third sect,20 inch or so, does anybody have info on a presice measurement of loading the tower will see,and of course i need all the info i can get, thanks fanman
