A foundation, comprising:
- at least one tower-shaped foundation structure with a circumferential foundation wall extending in a longitudinal direction, the foundation wall being bounded on an underside by an underside end face and the foundation wall formed of a mineral building material;
- at least one binding element formed of a metallic material and arranged on the underside end face;
- wherein a length of the binding element from the underside end face to a lower end of the binding element is at least 0.5 m;
- and
- wherein the binding element comprises a longitudinally extending circumferential tie-in wall and a cross-sectional shape of the binding element corresponds to a cross-sectional shape of the foundation wall.
Use of a binding element formed of a metallic material and having a length of at least 0.5 m arranged on an underside end face of a foundation wall of a tower-shaped foundation structure formed of a mineral building material of a foundation of an offshore structure, wherein the binding element comprises a longitudinally extending circumferential tie-in wall and a cross-sectional shape of the binding element corresponds to a cross-sectional shape of the foundation wall.
