To use the floor, a very stable tower standing on the floor is required. The transceiver will be fixed on the top of the tower.

Two techniques using a small concrete block are suggested for stabilizing the tower on the floor.

•The concrete slab material is poured directly on the base of the tower

•Four bolts are inserted in the concrete slab placed on the floor. The tower mount is fixed on the slab with the inserted bolts using nuts.

2- Mounting on a fragile/crumbly wall

On sites on which the installation on fragile (pre-fab) or crumbly (old building) walls is unavoidable, the best way to strongly fix the JMB is to use a metallic clamping plate on the other side of the wall as sketched below. In this technique a large section of the wall is clasped providing higher rigidity and stability.
