this project is a building its height 32m and its area is 3500m2
the top of this building there is a canopy( decoration shape of aluminum)
we now in stage of finishing and its the time to make the lightening protection
i am confused about the connection between the air terminal rods
off course the connection will be a bare copper cable according the shop drawing
