Short anchor bolt problem
I am about to put up a tx-455 self supporting tower. The site
currently has a concrete pad, which has been described to me as
follows: The pad is 5' X 5' and about 3 feet deep. The pad is
heavily rebarred, and pinned to 30 feet of bedrock with 3 foot
epoxeyed bolts (4 of them). The bolts are about 24 inches into the
bedrock. There are 3 anchor bolts sticking out of the pad which
perfectly match the base plate of the tower. Here's the problem. Those
bolts are 12 inches in length 9 inches in the concrete and
3 inches extending out for th tower base. If I guy the bottom
section and use a fairly light antenna (HF quad) will I be okay?
