I have a smaller Versatower here, and knowing roughly what a HD tower looks
like, I've done some basic calculations. Here's what I think:-

Base Plate, approx 250kg

Lattice sections, from 75 to 125kg each.

Then there's the head unit, pulleys, cables and winches to add on.

It's probably best if I don't give you dimensions of my base, in case
there's a specific one for HD masts.

The 80ft tower will have 4 nominal 20ft sections. The largest of these is
also a little longer, to allow nesting of the others.

Try Googling GM3WOJ for lots of tower hints and tips.

Hi -

I'm about to buy an used Versatower BP80 heavy duty and I'm looking for
technical information in order to organize the transportation.

I'm especially concerned with the weight of the base and of the lattice
tower, even approximately. Dimensions of the base and of the tower with
the 4 sections telescoped together would be fine as well.

Thanks in anticipation for any information you could share with me.

Best 73,
