Abstract (en)

The present invention relates to sighting and observation towers with particular reference to towers for sighting forest fires. The tower consists of three essentially rectilinear beams or pillars of preimpregnated laminar wood projecting from the ground. Such beams, which can be made of one-piece or composite members with suitable shape, are provided with couplings and are arranged essentially as a pyramid provided with suitable guy ropes. They supports a raised platform provided with a cover (10) against bad weather and hot sun. <IMAGE>
