The Naval Ordnance Test Station, at Inyokern. California, has constructed two timber towers at that point, reportedly the highest ever built. There are two of these towers, located 600 feet apart, each being 357 feet high. The timbers were laminated from 2x10 inch structural grade Douglas Fir lumber using resorcinol type phenolic resin glue, and finished to 9 inch thickness. Gusset plates and connecting timbers are of 2-5/8 inch plywood. The timbers were laminated precut, and drilled by Summerbell Roof Structures, at its Los Angeles factory. Actual fastenings of the parts was done with 7 /8 inch bolts. Sections were partly assembled on the ground and then hoisted into place for the final assembly' Each tower supports sheaves made of pegwood and the only metal used in these are for axles and pillow blocks.
