Abstract

A modular tower assembly (1) for use with blown film extrusion processes, where modular tower sections (200) each having identical columns/foot prints can be stacked on top of one another. Each module can have rectangular type platforms (192) with walk decks (198) about a central rectangular void middle (199). Staircases can be built into the side of all decks modules up to the top deck. Each of the four vertical legs (420) of the deck modules has flat plate bottoms to stack on the deck (198) surface of the module beneath, and side cross bracing (425). Side extension platform deck wings (490) with legs (410) can be used when the central rectangular void is enlarged. The modules can be pre-formed and brought onsite to be erected in a rapid assembly manner by fasteners such as bolts, and be removable as compared to permanent type welded towers.
