Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for providing self-standing, self-supporting, rapid-deployable (S4RD) towers for communications and similar applications, and in particular to ballast base systems that enable the self-standing, self-supporting, rapid-deployable features while eliminating the need for a permanent foundation for the tower. Novel and inventive tower designs, wherein a user may climb through an interior volume of the tower while using the tower structure as both ladder and man cage, are also disclosed.
