Most of the good imagers and engineers here say (and logic seems to reinforce) that having a lovely rugged gusseted pier is let down by the weak link of the long bolts in the rat cage arrangement you have supporting the base of your beautiful pier. The longer those bolts (and yours are looooong) the more vibration and instability you'll introduced to that stiff pier.
Seek the advice of IIS members Wavytone (engineer) and Peter Ward (award winning imager).
Are you doing visual only (less important) or imaging?
