MODULAR FOUNDATION FOR TOWER WITH EXPANDABLE BASE
A foundation for a tower includes a plurality of ballast holders spaced from each other and a central portion configured to support a tower. The foundation includes a plurality of connecting members, each connecting member configured to attach a ballast holder to the central portion, wherein a length of the plurality of connecting members is determined based upon the load capacity required to retain the tower in a vertical position, wherein when the plurality of ballast holders is connected to the central portion, the central portion is elevated above the plurality of ballast holders, wherein different lengths of the connecting members expands and contracts the footprint of the foundation to match the foundation to the required maximum loading requirements.
