Import Tips
• Verify structural engineering certifications and comply with FCC and local building codes for telecom towers
• Ensure galvanization thickness meets ASTM A123 standards; provide mill test reports for steel composition
• Avoid misclassification as prefabricated buildings by documenting site assembly requirements
