The Titan Self-Support Tower is a modular, pre-engineered system available in increments up to a height of 96 ft. (28.8 m). The system consists of 12 different 8 ft. (2.4 m) sections designed to interlock with one another.
Material used for all members is formed, pre-galvanized steel sheets with a minimum yield of 35,000 lbs./sq. in. (2,450 kg/cm2). The diagonal members are installed at a shallow angle, allowing them to be climbed. The tower members are graded out with a high degree of finesse, producing a very cost-effective, high-strength tower.

The Titan Self-Support Tower is assembled utilizing high-quality Grade 5 splice bolts with a JS500 protective finish. These high-tolerance, slip-fit splices ensure proper alignment as tower sections are assembled |

The Titan Self-Support Tower system uses a "building block" approach to create towers of varying heights and loading capacities. For example, all 12 sections are employed to construct a 96 ft. (28.8 m) tower. In another example, the strongest possible 64 ft. (19.3 m) tower can be obtained by choosing the widest 8 sections: from #13 to #6. If only a light antenna load needs to be supported, a lighter-duty 64 ft. (19.3 m) tower can be constructed using the 8 narrowest sections, #2 to #9.
The following drawing illustrates various tower heights, while always utilizing the widest base section: number 13.
