ABSTRACT:
A method for erecting absorber towers using trestle means (26) with jack means (32) to assemble a course and then lift it while constructing the next course below it. The first course is lowered on the just assembled course and welded thereto. These steps are repeated to form the outer wall (34) of the absorber tower (10). A clearance (48) is provided between the elevated course and the course to be assembled for installing the internal components of the tower. Advantageously, the method of the present invention allows for the construction of an absorber tower on site in retrofit applications where space may be restricted and access limited.
