Abstract
A wind turbine platform includes a wind turbine base; a plurality of radial moment beams, operatively connected to the wind turbine base, extending radially from the wind turbine base; and a plurality of piles, each pile being operatively connected to a radial moment beam and extending into a medium to provide foundational support for the wind turbine platform.
Claims10
A vertical structure support platform comprising:
- a vertical structure support base;
- and
- a plurality of radial moment beams, operatively connected to said vertical structure support base, extending radially from said vertical structure support base;
- each radial moment beam including a beam to pile interface configured to connectively engage a first pile;
- each radial moment beam integrally including a beam to base interface configured to connectively engage said vertical structure support base;
- said beam to base interface being configured to provide each radial moment beam with horizontal movement flexibility;
- said beam to base interface being configured as a pair of arc-shaped beam to base interfaces;
- said pair of arc-shaped beam to base interfaces being configured to provide each radial moment beam with horizontal movement flexibility;
- said pair of arc-shaped beam to base interfaces being configured to receive bolts or rivets;
- said pair of arc-shaped beam to base interfaces being configured to provide an arc-shaped movement path for the received bolts or rivets.
