Japan Skytree



Japan Skytree 2080ft

They began by digging down
So two directions could be built at once
Premade sections built on the ground
Scaffolding added with netting surround to prevent
anything falling down

Each section craned into position
Above the Load a gyroscope
preventing mid~air transition
Made of tubes angled for strength  Structural integrity
An architect's Dream
The engineer's Mission

On reaching the top  2 cranes to be lowered  from atop this ingenious free~standing Tower
smaller cranes hoisted to perform this function
Each crane smaller 'till all
were grounded

The last of which the final stage  dismantled and carried down in an elevator
Such ingenuity is characteristic of Japanese engineering behaviour
Completed in a narrow triangled arena
It stands
World Tallest Free~standing
Communications Tower
