Re: Tower guy wires

First what brand tower is it?
All towers have spec's on guy wire tension.
Rohn 25G is about 400 pounds of pull. You will need a Dyno to do it right. We have installed our own towers. We rent the crane and get a Dyno from a friend that pulls guy wires on his day job. The Dyno is tested monthly. A guy tower will move a small amount not much. Even when we finish with our towers. You can see a little sag in the wire.

The main thing is find out the brand and type of the tower to get the spec's.

The guys look loose to me, but maybe they are supposed to be that way.
They are supposed to be a "little" loose. It would cause structural failure if all of the guys were stretched tight. It is designed to have some "give" in it to allow the pressure exerted on it to be applied slowly and not instantly.
