+# Eiffel Tower — as of 2022 (330 m with the DAB antenna), 1889 structure
+
+## Identity
+Variant: the tower as it stands since 15 March 2022 (DAB antenna, 330 m to the tip) on the 1889
+wrought-iron structure; 1st/2nd-floor superstructures simplified to their railings and glazed
+pavilions. Chosen because 330 m is the number every visitor knows and the lattice is unchanged.
+
+Signature features (what makes it THIS object):
+1. Four separate curved legs ("piles"), each a square lattice column of four box-section
+   arbalétriers (corner uprights), joining into one shaft above the 2nd floor.
+2. The concave skyline profile — 29 panels per face, steep at the base (65.8° face slope), vertical
+   at the top — the exponential-looking curve.
+3. The four decorative semicircular arches between the legs under the 1st floor (Sauvestre).
+4. The deep lattice belt girder of the 1st floor (with the frieze of 72 names) and the lighter 2nd.
+5. The small 3rd-floor cabin, the campanile of four arches with the lantern, and the antenna mast.
+6. Three graduated shades of "Eiffel Tower Brown", darkest at the bottom.

+### Structure (plate PL. I "Diagrammes horizontaux")
+- Panels 1–11 (z 0 → 109.1): four separate legs, each a square of 4 arbalétriers (a inner, b/d sides, c outer corner).
+- Panels 12–17 (z 109.1 → 175.6): the inner arbalétriers (a) stop; 8 uprights on the outer ring, (c) at corners, (b)/(d) about 30% in from each corner.
+- Panels 18–29 (z 175.6 → 269.8): 4 corner uprights.
+- Every face of every panel: a horizontal and a St Andrew's cross; each member is itself a lattice girder (two flanges + zig-zag web): https://www.gracesguide.co.uk/Eiffel_Tower ("box section", angle-iron corners).
+
+### Colour
+Three graduated shades of "Eiffel Tower Brown", darkest at the bottom, lightest at the top, so it
+reads as one colour against the sky: https://www.nationalgeographic.com/travel/article/behind-the-scenes-eiffel-tower-paris ·
+https://csmonitor.com/2001/1129/p7s1-woeu.html. Since the 20th campaign (2019–2024) it is back to
+Eiffel's 1907 yellow-brown: https://www.toureiffel.paris/en/the-monument/painting-eiffel-tower.
+No hex/RAL published; chosen by eye from photos: bottom `#5e4834`, middle `#715a40`, top `#87704f`.

+
+## Open questions
+- **Profile scale.** Table 1 gives a ground half width of 53.46 m, but the official footprint is
+  124.90 m (half 62.45). The table's top (w = 5 → 10 m) matches the plate, so the table is most
+  likely measured on the arbalétrier axes / inside face lines. Chosen: the table shape scaled by
+  62.45 / 53.459 = 1.168 so the outer faces hit 124.90 m at the ground. Cross-checks: 1st-floor
+  outer side 70.69 m overhangs the scaled legs (67.4 m) slightly, 2nd floor (40.96 m) overhangs the
+  shaft (34.9 m), as in the plate.
+- **Leg plan width above the ground.** Only the ground value (25.34 m) is published. Chosen: linear
+  taper to 0.6 × the half width at panel 11 (z = 109.1), matching the plate's Fig. 4 where (b)/(d)
+  sit ~30% in from the corners.
+- **Arbalétrier section.** Not published in the sources found; chosen 1.4 m at the ground tapering to
+  0.7 m at the top (by eye from the plate at 1:1000).
+- **Arch.** Circle through the inner leg feet (74.24 m) and the keystone (38.90 m): R = 37.16 m,
+  centre 1.74 m above ground.
+- **Floor areas** disagree (official ft² vs fr.wikipedia m²); not used.
