Permanent and adjustable

Depending on the construction materials used, tripods can be heavy duty, permanent structures that can support sizable headloads at good heights, where they can be stabilised further with guy wires. Some adjustable designs can accommodate for rough/uneven ground, and are used on rooftops or hillsides.

Tripods are secured in place via their feet, which can be designed to use pegs that are hammered into the ground, plates that screw to roof supporting structures, or bolts directly into concrete.

Simplicity means tripods can be readily adapted to meet specific requirements.
