The building is based on the principle of the hyperboloid, which had been frequently used in steel construction by the engineer Vladimir G. Suchov (1853 – 1939). It consists of 240 pieces of straight wooden Siberian larch (glulam) with a cross section of 8 x 8 inches.
A large mesh structure has been designed by two inverse maps, in which only the external, system members, bears the burdens. While other vertical members such as steel columns or a central mast, were omitted consistently.
The simplified model of the tower resembles a tube with clamps. Because of the horizontal wind speed, the maximum load is in the holding position. _Agujas Steel are fastened to the construction of up to 6 meters deep in the bedrock. Above the foundation, the stiffness of the tower is reduced gradually from the bottom to the top by reducing the number of wooden sticks. According to the reduction of charges, the mesh structure expands to the top. In correspondence with the passage of forests at the foot of the tower has remained thin with dimensions of about 6 meters. Within the structure, five sections of steel spiral staircase with a total of 125 steps leading to the observation deck at a height of 23.5 meters. The observation deck, which has a diameter of 9 meters, offers a spectacular view of 360 degrees.
