The eiffel tower was made using this type of construction

The Eiffel Tower was created using Iron and a Latticework Construction. The Eiffel tower is a wrought iron lattice tower on the Champ de Mars in Paris, France. It is named after the engineer Gustave Eiffel, whose company designed and built the tower. The latticework construction supports its own weight. The strips of metal are crisscrossed as the tower is built, supporting itself as it goes up.
