Use cases
A directional face of a tower or tower section, holding mount points at a specific azimuth.
TOWFACE is the third level in the tower hierarchy (TOW > TOWSEC > TOWFACE > MOUNTPOINT). Each face belongs to a parent TOW and represents one side or direction of the tower structure. The face number provides ordering, while azimuth (degrees) defines the compass bearing for antenna orientation planning. Width (cm) constrains the physical space available for mounting equipment. Mount point capacity (total/available) tracks how many equipment positions exist on this face. The related list shows child MOUNTPOINT records via comboKeyEntity, displaying mount ID, azimuth, downtilt, and maximum load. This structure allows triangular towers to have 3 faces, square towers 4 faces, and round monopoles to define faces at any azimuth for flexible antenna placement planning.
