Hey Guys, so, until recently, i had a 39' tower i put up about 8 years ago on the side of this building. Its attached via 1/4" steel wall brackets i fabricated. The brackets secure to the building go with 1/2" galvanized threaded rod that goes through the blocks then through steel plates on the backside welded to a vertical I Beam. Each bracket has 1/2" threaded rods holding it. In other words, the building will fall down before the brackets come off the wall =). The tower consisted of 3 sections plus the top (9') section. I have a steel mast pipe coming out of the top section thats about 8' with a super light VHF antenna on it. Thats it.
We took the tower down to facilitate work that had to be performed on the side of the building. It was super easy, we hinged it down off a bolt on the bottom bracket.
Now im ready to put it back up. Now the question, i have one more section i would like to add in there. That would make 2 sections plus the top section above the roof line shown in this picture. I would say about 35' above the top bracket not including mast pipe. Is this doable without guy's? I wouldn't mind guying but as you can see one guy would have to go on the other side of that fence that is not my property.
(Picture shows the first 2 sections going up, not securly fastened yet...., it was in progress when i took pic)
