If the tower site is located on the soft soil, you will need to have a tamped
area of no less than 30” diameter to prevent the foundation from shifting
and caving.
•
If the tower site is located on the loose sand, dig a hole of 30” in diameter
and 5 feet deep. Fill the base with 2 feet of compressed rock or clay, tamp
that down, and add 2 feet of concrete. Once the concrete sets, fill the hole
with soil.
