Features:
Secure Foundation for Bracketed and Guyed Tower Installations
The Rohn BPC55G Concrete Base Plate is designed to serve as the foundational interface between your Rohn 55G tower and a poured concrete footing. Built for guyed or bracketed installations, this pier pin-style base plate ensures proper tower alignment while securely anchoring the structure. It’s a critical component for safely installing Rohn 55G tower systems in non-self-supporting configurations.
Built Specifically for 55G Tower Systems
Engineered to match the base of Rohn’s 55G tower series, the BPC55G offers precision-fit mounting with bolt alignment and pin placement tailored to the tower’s lower section. This compatibility streamlines the installation process and ensures that the structural load is evenly distributed through the base and into the concrete below.
Pier Pin Design for Effective Load Transfer
Using 3/4-inch x 12-inch pier pins embedded into the concrete footing, this base plate allows for slight tower movement that helps absorb wind and stress loads without damaging the base. The pier pin method is especially useful in guyed and bracketed systems, where flexibility at the base helps reduce fatigue over time on the tower’s structure.
Rugged Steel Construction with Galvanized Finish
The BPC55G is constructed from heavy-duty steel and hot-dip galvanized to prevent corrosion and surface wear in outdoor environments. Whether installed in humid, rainy, or dry climates, this base plate maintains its strength and reliability, ensuring your tower base remains solid and weather-resistant for years.
For Use in Guyed and Bracketed Installations Only
This base plate is not intended for self-supporting towers. It must be used in conjunction with properly tensioned guy wires or building brackets to support the tower structure. It is best suited for applications where external support is used to stabilize the tower and where the foundation requires a minimal-profile but durable anchor point.
Easy Installation into New Concrete Footings
Installation is straightforward when casting a new concrete foundation. With the correct spacing and embedding of the pier pins, the BPC55G simply drops into place and is ready to accept the first tower section. Its design is made to align naturally with the tower’s base, helping crews get the structure vertical and secure quickly.
