Course Overview

Towers with bridges provide a long, uninterrupted platform area while leaving clear space at ground level. This is useful for a whole host of tasks, such as aircraft maintenance, where you're working above any type of obstruction or need to leave an access route for vehicles or pedestrians.
Linked towers are most often used to span the facade of buildings, so work such as painting, plastering or replacing windows can take place. They provide a long, uninterrupted deck area, which is useful for a whole host of tasks.
