Regardless of how your platforms are constructed, bear in mind that the height of ANYTHING near a helicopter landing pad is LIMITED by the approach & departure path which is defined by a slope of 8 feet horizontal to 1 foot vertical on all sides of the landing pad. You can learn more about this from Federal Aviation Administration Advisory Circular AC 150/5390-2C. It’s a free download from FAA’s website. You may also want to contact Ricarda Bennet, of Heliport Consultants. She is nationally recognized Heliport consultant who I’m sure would be willing to give you a little guidance. Richard can be reached at 805-496-0986 or [email protected].
