English term or phrase: overhang and tower
Hola! Necesito un poco de ayuda! Estoy traduciendo un texto que describe un sistema de irrigación "boom" (creería que hace referencia a un riego por brazo) y aparecen las palabras "overhang" y "tower". Creo se refieren a algún tipo de superficie o de terreno.
¿Alguna sugerencia? Gracias por la ayuda!

Context:
The Boom System reduces wheel tracking, runoff and surface soil compaction. Constructed of a light-weight aluminum structure and tubing, it provides a corrosive-resistant system ideal for lowering application intensity on overhangs and towers by widening the wetted area.

Explanation:
Es un sistema de regadera que se utiliza en fincas, su diseño permite que se riegue un área máxima sin que se dañe demasiado terreno por las ruedas que transportan el sistema. Si se mira desde el aire se pueden ver los círculos creados por las ruedas.
