Description:
Lattice guyed mast of height 250 m is part of the Atmospheric Station Křešín at Pacova. It is part of the CzechGlobe project (operated by the Global Change Research Centre, Academy of Sciences in the Czech Republic) that aims towards the construction of a spatially distributed global change research infrastructure in the Czech Republic. The mast is guyed at five levels into three directions. The mast body is a lattice, triangular structure with the face of the width of 2.6 m up to the 232.5 m height and 1.5 m above 237.5 m. The ropes are anchored to concrete blocks through stretching devices enabling the application of required stresses to the ropes. The forces were measured by strain gauges and additionally by hydraulic jacks. The mast is equipped with a hoist up to 228 m, ladder with safety rail, 13 platforms and three galleries. The composit cabin for technological equipment is installed at level 228 m.
