Drill tower


A Drill tower is a tower and training facility for firemen. It is usually built within a fire station facility for routine exercises and training.

A drill tower is a multi-level structure simulating high-rise buildings. Heights vary by location. Usually, its height is higher than the ladders a fire engine can reach. Levels are accessible from a stairway inside the tower, similar to buildings in urban areas. Drill towers usually contain windows for practising fire fighting and other rescue exercises.

Towers can help fireman deal with real-life situations, including running upstairs with heavy equipment, using rope and safety nets, and operating a fire engine in a confined space.
