Roll off roof... on a roof

Hi everyone,

I'm thinking of trying to build a roll off roof observatory where I'm living next year.

Simple enough, but the thing is it's on the roof of a 13 story building. There's a solid wall i'll be able to build it against but I think it'll need quite a lot of reinforcement to stop it and my equipment blowing away in high winds.

Do you think it'll even be possible? Bearing in mind I wont be able to have any sizable foundations.

I'm thinking reinforcing it inside the walls with a low wall of breeze blocks or something?

Thanks,

Chris
