[AReU] Ground plane VS Counterpoise or what?

[Terry Petrash]

OK, RU members, it's time to put on your thinking caps on and
offer me an "opinion" and possibly a solid correct answer.  

If you were going to erect an antenna on a 5 foot pole above the
top surface of a building that is 25 feet above ground and that
building happens to be a parking garage which is made up of
steel reinforced precast concrete, would you be looking at an
antenna that is considered 5 feet or 30 feet above ground in
considering ground plane reflectivity?  

I have this delema and am trying to figure it out.  If you don't
have an answer how about any practical ways to test measure this
situation to find out, please let me know.
