Funny story. As a young engineer, I worked on some big foundations for some large experimental wind turbines purposely sited in a high wind area at the base of the foothills. These footings were like 30' square and 5' or so thick with alot or rebar for shrinkage and flexure. The contractor was bitching about the amount of rebar in the footings until their job trailer blew over with them in it...
