"freestanding structure"
Torre


Explanation:
Uma "freestanding structure" é como se chama na arquitetura de uma estrutura construída o mais alto possível com o mínimo de material e, é claro, que consiga se manter de pé.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CN_Tower
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tallest_buildings_and_s...

The world's tallest freestanding structure on land is defined as the tallest self-supporting man-made structure that stands above ground. This definition is different from that of world's tallest building or world's tallest structure based on the percent of the structure that is occupied and whether or not it is self-supporting or supported by exterior cables.

"freestanding structure"
estrutura autoportante


Explanation:
É uma estrutura que se mantém rígida por sua própria construção, sem necessidade de apoios externos.
Google search results: 456 para \"estrutura autoportante\".
Um sistema autoportante é um conjunto estrutural estável por si próprio, por exemplo quase a totalidade de nossos objetos são autoportantes, pois não dependem de algo fora deles para que mantenham a sua integridade.
