Lattice tower mast systems are required to be installed on a static base. Typically the static base is a concrete base installed on ground level on site, however, SCP can provide manufactured bases for installation on suspended slabs or in the event it is not possible to pour a concrete base on site.
Some advantages of the lattice tower mast system are as follows:
- Install through voids as the lattice tower systems are self-supporting
- Install externally from the building
- Install through a lift core
- Service multiple buildings with one placing boom if installed externally from the building
- When servicing multiple buildings with one placing boom, some of the advantages are:
– Design work for 1 x placing boom only required
– 1 x concrete gravity base only required
– No propping required with typical installations
– Reduction in material delivery pipeline costs
– Swing from one building to another without delays or blowing out separate pipeline systems
– Reduction in placing boom climbing costs
– Install larger placing booms such as SCP’s 50 metre and 42 metre placing boom range
– No penetration requirement resulting in programme and commercial savings on the project
- Free-stand at heights up to 54 metres without a building tie – Contact SCP for technical clarifications
Lattice tower mast systems can be increased in heights throughout different stages of the project. One of SCP’s innovations is the development of a self-climbing frame to climb lattice tower systems in a similar method in which tower cranes self-climb. SCP have 3 different types of lattice tower systems available.
