There is no rule of thumb. Contact the manufacturer as it depends on the tower and the soil type where the tower will go. The foundation plan makes certain assumptions about the soil. If your soil does not match these assumptions, then the foundation will need to be altered. Usually this means a bigger hole. There are geologist/soil engineers who do this.
