Construction of Oriental Crown

Step 1 - Construction of the tower bottom
Material preparation:
Beam0808-056 2 M4*14 screw 4
Beam0808-088 2 M4*22 screw 4
Beam0824-032 4
Construction process:
1. Prepare the Beam0824-032*2 and the Beam0808-056*1. Screw M4*14*2 screws from one side of the
Beam0808-056 and fasten them as shown in the figure below. Pay attention to the positive and negative
orientations of the structural parts.
5 5
2. Repeat the above step to make another such component.
3. Pass two Beam0808-088 through both sides of two Beam0808-056 components with four M4*22 screws
as shown in the figure below; then screw them in the side threaded holes of the Beam0824-032.

Step 2 - Construction of the tower body
Beam0808-088 2 Beam0808-184 4
Beam0808-120 4 M4*22 screw 24
Beam0808-152 4 M4 nut 24
1. On the basis of the tower bottom, continue to add a layer with the Beam0808-088, while respectively leave a
hole at both ends of the Beam0808-088 as shown in the figure below. Fasten M4*22 screws with M4 nuts now.
2. Repeat the above step, and continue to increase the number of layers with Beam0808 with the same number of
holes or more than 2 holes, and fasten them with M4*22 screws and M4 nuts until all Beam0808 are used up.
Note that the longitudinal Beam0808 are as long as the horizontal Beam0808 in the lower layer.

Step 3 - Construction of the tower top
Beam0824-192 4 M4*30 screw 4
M4*22 screw 12 M4 nut 16
1. Fasten the connections between the Beam0824-192 and the Beam0808 with M4*30 screws as shown in
the figure below, and use this type of screws when connecting the corresponding Beam0824 on the other
side, otherwise the length will not be enough for fixing.
2. Continue to add the Beam0824 as shown in the figure below. Install the Beam0824-192 separated by one hole,
two holes and one hole respectively. Fasten each Beam0824 with two M4*22 screws and M4 nuts.
