Diagonal cross
To meet particularly stringent safety require-
ments, the ‘mounted-ahead’ railings can be
left in place on all levels (‘storeys’) with scaf-
fold planking units.
NOTICE
If no scaffold planking units are used, or if
these are removed before the tower is finally
put into use, the following rule applies:
Basic rule:
▪
Maintaining correct geometry by fixing a horizontal
diagonal cross in the 1st and last-but-one or last
'storey', and every 10
m.
Additionally as required e.g.
- if there is a horizontal restraint for the tower
(even a temporary one)
- if local loads need to be transferred (e.g. from
attaching the tower to the crane after it has
been ground-assembled in the horizontal)
For detailed design-load information, see the type
test.
