The adjustable structure comprises: At least one height adjustable pillar comprising a first anchor module and a second telescopic module adjustable in position with respect to the anchor module A lintel fixed at least one of its ends to the adjustable pillar. At least one foundation (6) for fixing at least one pillar on which anchor bolts are fixed

In the event that the structure comprises two pillars, we will have a porch, which also

it can be regulated in width, in which case the lintel comprises: At least one connection module with a pillar A central module that can be of different widths At least one telescopic module adjustable in width

Additionally, the structure, in particular the lintel, can be complemented with additional modules in a number such that they allow to approximate a desired width of the free space liner between the pillars.

The modules of connection to the pillar, the central module and the additional modules are mounted on a support hardware on which a luminous board or similar is installed, which is accessed by a walkable platform with perimeter protection railing.

The railing is modular, being able to compose to close the platform area not occupied by the light panel.

The panel support hardware has the following advantages: Its design allows perfect fastening to the lintel. They allow the regulation of the location of the poster in position, height and separation of the lintel. They allow the inclination of the poster to be able to orientate it vertically. On their sides they have an adaptable railing section so that there is no space along the unprotected platform_ They carry two pieces where the pieces of the front skirting board can be screwed together. They carry a front skirting board, which may or may not be fitted depending on the height of the opening of the rear doors for access to the sign.

On the porches, banners or the like you can mount a ladder that presents the

following advantages: It is rigidly attached to one of the pillars. It allows the regulation of the pillars in height. It takes hoops removes fears, allowing to install a security system preferably flexible line. It is equipped with an anti-scale closure system that prevents unauthorized personnel from using it. It has the option of being preferably lined with perforated sheet, acting as anti-scale.

The porches, banners or similar, have the following advantages: They keep a record in each of the bases of the pillars to facilitate access to its interior to make electrical connections. Its composition allows the stochage of the sections. The design of the base plates of the pillars allows to correct any orientation or position error occurred during the execution of the civil work. The pillars allow to absorb both positive and negative slopes. They allow the serial production of the modules that compose it. They have been designed to withstand the efforts for dimensions and weight of a given panel with a maximum span.

With smaller spans the size and number of panels could be increased to

install. Decrease the number of lane cuts to be made for installation. The pillars allow the correction of the gauge. This technology is applicable to both porches and banners or similar.

Therefore, thanks to the structure object of the invention, a structure is achieved that: adapts to any type of terrain can be installed without the need to conduct a topographic study of the terrain. It allows the possibility of expanding / reducing the number of lanes on the track. It allows the recycling of the structure.
