I think that there is to much hype about how big the pier needs to be. Mine is cast iron about 150mm diameter. If I hit it it will move but who hits their pier?
The mount should be balanced on the top of it pretty well so there is very little lateral force on it except perhaps when you are slewing. This isn't when you are imaging so it doesn't matter.
The mount should balance on the pier with no connecting bolts.
