The expansion of the mobile network is a major challenge: Thousands of cell towers have to be erected. STEEL-ROOT® are predestined for fast network expansion.
Below you can see an installation example:
Excavation of the construction pit. STEEL-ROOT® are working even in less load-bearing soils — like in this case. The installation area is located nearby the North Sea, Germany.
Installation of the geogrid.
A compactable mineral mixture is filled in, which then is compacted layer by layer. This results into a sustainable subsoil.
The STEEL-ROOT® foundation can be easily assembled outside the construction pit. All STEEL-ROOT® foundations are delivered compact, which results in low transport costs.
The fully assembled STEEL-ROOT® foundation is lifted into the construction pit and aligned afterwards. Cable conduits are pulled in for later wiring.
Then the old soil is backfilled and compacted layer by layer. The installation of the STEEL-ROOT® foundation itself is done now. Also the STEEL-ROOT® foundation is immediately loadable.
The tower can therefore be connected to the STEEL-ROOT® foundation via the folding hinge.
Following this, the tower is raised with the help of the excavator. Alternatively the tower can be raised with a hydraulic system.
After the tower is raised the antennas can be installed right away. The complete installation is done now.
