FAQ

Q: What should I do if I encounter hazards or obstructions

during installation?

A: Prior to installing the appurtenance, identify any hazards or
obstructions. Additional products may be required to maintain the
integrity of the safety climb. Temporary and/or permanent
precautionary measures should be taken to preserve the climbing
facility and/or safety climb.

Q: How should I tighten the bolts securing flat plates?

A: Tighten all bolts securing flat plates by using the
turn-of-nut method. Pay attention to leave equal distance and force
on each leg of the U-bolt. All fasteners should be tightened per
AISC 6.5.2.

Q: What is the EPA of each antenna pipe?

A: The EPA of a 2-7/8 x 96 antenna pipe is 1.84 ft^2 and with
1/2 inch ice thickness is 2.48 ft^2.
