Modular lattice tower

A tower, comprising:

• an above ground portion;
• and
• an embedded portion joined to the above ground portion,
• where the above ground portion and the embedded portion comprise a respective plurality of modular sections,
• where each modular section in each of the respective plurality of modular sections comprises a respective vertical height and a quadrilateral plan view cross section with equal plan view outer dimensions over the respective vertical height of the modular section,
• where each modular section comprises a first end and a second end opposite the first end, where either the first end or the second end is configured to connect to either the first end or the second end of any other modular section in its respective plurality of modular sections,
• where at least one modular section of the respective plurality of modular sections of the embedded portion is fully embedded into a ground surface, and
• where the modular sections in each of the respective plurality of modular sections are arranged in a linear sequence.

A combination of modular sections, the combination comprising:

• at least a first modular section, a second modular section, and an embedded modular section,
• where the embedded modular section is fully embedded into a ground surface,
• where the first modular section has a total plan view cross section side length and a vertical height that is perpendicular to and longer than the total plan view cross section side length,
• where the first modular section comprises a space lattice structure having a square plan view cross section with a first set of dimensions, the square plan view cross section comprising a first plurality of corner struts with each corner strut in the first plurality of corner struts comprising a respective structural angle having a first strength and two legs that each have a horizontal leg length,
• where the second modular section comprises a space lattice structure having substantially the square plan view cross section comprising a second plurality of corner struts with each corner strut in the second plurality of corner struts comprising a respective structural angle having two respective legs that each have the horizontal leg length and a second strength that is different than the first strength,
• where the embedded modular section comprises a space lattice structure having substantially the square plan view cross section;
• and
• where the corner struts in the first plurality of corner struts and in the second plurality of corner struts are parallel to one another over the vertical height of the first modular section and the second modular section, respectively, and define respective plan view cross sections with equal plan view outer dimensions over the vertical height of the first modular section and the second modular section, respectively.
