Are there plans to build a trailer observation deck?

I have a 22' enclosed trailer that I transport my 911 and a couple of motorcycles with. It has a full walk-on roof including a ladder. I'd like to build an observation deck out of aluminum. I've done an exhaustive internet search and I cannot find plans. Can anyone here point me in that direction?

You might look at using speed rail which we use in the movie industry, infinite configurations, and goes together quickly.
