Gustave Eiffel designed the tower to be a distinctive gateway for international exhibition in Paris in 1889, which approved the centenary of the French Revolution, where the French showed the technical capacity at the time. The total cost of building the tower construction time of about 7.8 million French francs golden, many of which were from the ticket sales to recover this exhibition
In 1964 the tower was registered on the list of historical monuments of the city of Paris
Design and Construction
Construction work began on January 26, 1887, and lasted for 26 months with the participation of nearly 50 engineers and 300 workers; where they were in the first five months building foundations while building the twenty tower took the following months, ending all acts of March 31, 1889. The tower opened officially in the May 6, 1889
The period of 1887-1889 was a standard construction which, given the tools available in that era and compared with the extent of precision and magnitude that Tamir by this construction
The tower consists of 18 038 pieces of iron and 2.5 million total nail and weighs 10,100 tons, which is based on four pillars composed with each base dimensions 125 * 125 meters of any area of 15.625 square meters.
Due to the durability and high tower has opened the door to a lot of uses for the potential of this tower. These uses have varied in the following:
At the beginning of 1906 saw the first attempts to use it in broadcasting, that actually entered service in 1920
The tower also saw the first attempts to use it in a television broadcast from 1921 to 1935, but the service has already started since 1957
Laboratory experiments
Since the completion of this construction, it has become many scientists, engineers and researchers to use it in a kiss conduct various experiments, whether related to the weather or the free fall of objects or monitoring, and other uses. In 1909, a tunnel was built from the air in order to do some research.
