6 x 6 Foundation

The 6’x6′ Foundation Specifications by Greene Galvanized Stairs provide detailed requirements for constructing a robust foundation for tower installations. Designed for industrial and agricultural applications, these specifications ensure the foundation’s stability under high wind loads and normal soil conditions, adhering to ANSI/TIA/EIA-222-F standards.

The document includes:

  • Rebar configurations: Vertical #7 rebar at 6″ on center, base mat with #7 rebar at 12″ on center, and tie loops using #4 rebar.
  • Foundation thickness: Varies by tower height, ranging from 6.5′ for 30′ towers to 10′ for 60′ towers.
  • Concrete strength: Minimum 3000 psi.
  • Structural details: Grade 8 all-thread rods, nut, and washer embedded 30″ into the concrete, and overlapping top bars for enhanced stability.

This foundation design is tailored to withstand 90 mph wind gusts, ensuring the structural integrity of towers in demanding environments.
