Is there a use for 10" and 12" angles in Transmission Tower Design?

I work for a company that wants to start marketing 10" and 12" equal leg angles for Steel Lattice Towers in the transmission industry. This will be a new foray to me. I saw a previous post about some tower builders including Falcon Steel and Comemsa but can anybody suggest who I should be talking to in order to promote these products? I should probably look at both the builders and the designers. Your help is very appreciated.

p.s. I am also a structural engineer and typically more involved in the technical marketing than the actual sales. Thanks!

We use these built up angles for our heavy 345 kV towers.  Our supplier is Thomas & Betts for lattice and pole structures.  They sub out the angles to Fabrimet in Canada.  We typically don't build many of these towers per year.
