Here are a series of pictures showing the Rohn 25G tower installation. Doing this correctly is a major job. Making it right requires NOT cutting corners. Put it up correctly and expect it to stay where you put it. This tower stands at 45 feet.
Preparing the sections for installation. Fit the sections together on the ground, not in the air. Make sure they fit. Sections were sprayed with cold galzenized. The portion going in the ground is coated with tar.
Digging the hole. (3'X3'X5') A bit overkill, but it won't move!
Bricks to raise the tower off the dirt. One foot of crushed rock. Rebar at the upper and lower ends.
Hauling 1.5 cubic yards of concrete from the truck to the hole.
Install a ground wire while waiting for the concrete to set up.
Installing a bracket from the tower to the house at ten feet and installing the sections.
Rohn 3/16" guy wires.
