Height: 15m – Base square section of 65 x 65 cm
Last year 2017, I finished the construction of my freestanding tower of 15m.
(The trolley is also on the way).
Finally, this week, I was finally able to finish the construction of the chair that will go into the concrete.
The formwork is 1.5m X 1.5m X 1.7m. - 90cm of earth and 60cm of rock made with the jackhammer!! And 20cm of formwork wood), about 6500 kg of concrete.
Fixation of the base plate in the concrete with 8 rods of 26mm diameter, length 1,4m.
Fixation of the tower on the base plate with 13 rods of 20mm diameter.
In case of very big wind!! (Sometime 80/90 km/h) 4 x 3m supports will be attached to the concrete diagonally at the 4 corners of the tower and 4 concrete blocks are provided for guying if necessary. It will should not move ...Hi
Today, 23/11, the concrete is finished. This project progressing slowly but surely.
(soon I'll add some pics of the trolley)
