secure the legs in place in a circular configuration the extension 116 of the direct embedded section 85 shown as part of the foundation in fig1 and in isolation in fig1 is separate from the rebar loops which extend through the holes 110 in the extension side wall 112 the extension 116 has a flange 95 at the top and a flange 97 at the bottom the embedded structure extension 116 is placed between the inner leg 88 and the outer leg 89 of the cage 87 with the extension 116 extending above the top of the concrete poured in the foundation ring 80 the top of the flange 95 is used to connect the foundation to the tower to be supported thereon hence the direct embedded section 85 takes the place of the tower anchor bolts and embedment ring that are used in the first embodiment the remainder of the construction of the second embodiment of the foundation is the same as that already described in connection with the first embodiment including the pouring of a concrete plug and partial backfilling inside the inner cmp installation of electrical communication and grounding conduits completion of the backfilling of the inner cmp placement of the steel welded wire mesh wwm and the capped central drain and pouring of concrete into the annular foundation ring 80 and the floor 61 when constructed both embodiments of the perimeter pile foundation result in a ring of overlapping odd and even pile anchors that form.
