We recommend that in wind speeds over 20.0 km/h, cease working on the tower and do not attempt to move it. If the wind becomes a strong breeze, expected to reach 31.0 km/h, tie the tower to a rigid structure.

    Safety First TIES This structure is designed to be self-supporting under the loading condition requirements of EN 1004-1:2020 and does not require tying in. Consideration should be given to potential wind conditions if the tower is left unattended.
