Single Lamp towers are designed specifically to ensure towers are of minimum mass as ICAO specified. Designs are typically triangular-shaped with an adjustable top mast and fabricated in 3m lengths. For shipping, sections can be nested, thereby significantly reducing freight costs. Single Lamp towers are commonly found in Simple, SSALR, MALSR, and Calvert approach configurations.

Lightbar towers come in two designs - single and double mast. The single mast design is composed of square sections and offers tilting features and a reduced footprint. The double mast design makes use of two single lamp towers offering minimal deflection in heavy wind and ice load conditions. Lightbar towers reduce the number of towers required thereby reducing civil works, installation time, and maintenance time. Lightbar towers can typically be found in SSALR, MALSR, Calvert, Barrette, and ALSF-II approach configurations.

Per ICAO, only the upper 12m of a tower is required to be frangible. For positions that exceed 14.50m, Millard offers a variety of solutions that comprise of a steel base structure and a 12m frangible tower. Depending upon an airport’s access to equipment and to the tower site, designs can be economically fixed for crane access, or engineered to be lowered for servicing from the ground or elevated platform.

STEEL COLUMN

The frangible tower is supported by a hot-dipped galvanized steel column. The column can either be fixed or lowerable via rope-and-pulley and a counter-weighted system.

STEEL TOWER OR GANTRY

The frangible tower can be installed on a freestanding steel tower or gantry. Gantry designs typically extend for multiple positions allowing multiple towers to be serviced with a single climb. Frangible towers are typically lowerable onto a steel platform where they can be serviced.

STEEL TOWER ELEVATOR

The frangible tower can be installed on a platform (elevator) that can be raised and lowered alongside a steel tower. Once the elevator is fully lowered, the 12m frangible portion can be further lowered using a screwjack where it can be serviced from the ground.
