    How is the location of the guy wires on the mast and the angle to the anchors calculated?

    Need to determine how much ground will be required with guy wires?

    For the Windtura 750 on a schedule 80 steel pipe tower equal to or less than 40 feet in height, I would recommend three guyswires at each 20 feet increment of tower. Use 5/16 inch diameter steel cable.
