In order to observe and record the growth of vegetation and the impact of climate change, a university has commissioned a 24-metre-high observation and measurement tower in the middle of a Swedish forest. In erecting this “raised hide”, the client relied on the various possibilities offered by Allround Scaffolding, including matching expansion parts like platform stairs. The tower could therefore be built quickly from standard parts while being optimally adapted to the specific on-site conditions. A solution with a system.

• Digital advance planning in 3D
• Construction of the tower from standard parts thanks to the versatile Allround construction kit
• Quick assembly and efficient logistics using lightweight, compact components: the components could be transported without difficulty by quad and on foot to the place of use in the middle of the forest
• Simple adaptation to uneven terrain by means of the highly versatile modular Allround system
• High load-bearing capacity of the Allround LW components for secure attachment of research equipment such as sensors and cameras
• High stability of the free-standing tower thanks to a special bracing system with wire ropes and 80-cm anchoring in the ground
