This section covers the field assembly and
erection of lattice steel tower structures.

AND
22.3 STRUCTURE
ERECTION
The Contractor shall erect all structures
complete with step bolts, ladders, platforms,
anti-climbing
devices,
number
plates,
identification plates, warning plates and other
fixtures.
The Contractor shall be responsible for
ensuring foundation integrity prior to the
commencement of tower erection and no
tower shall be erected within ten (10) days of
the completion of the tower foundation.
Towers shall be stayed or braced sufficiently
to ensure safe erection and to ensure tower
security against wind or other loads until
erection of each tower is complete. Adequate
precautions shall be taken to ensure that no
parts of the tower are strained or damaged
during erection. Drifting of bolt holes shall be
minimised and carried out so as not to damage
galvanising.
Where structures are being erected within fifty
metres of an existing high voltage line, all
equipment associated with the lifting or
support of structural steel elements or subassemblies shall be provided with an approved
connection to earth. The lifting and support
equipment shall also provide a metallic
conducting path from the structural element or
