Tower for a wind turbine, wind turbine and method for manufacturing a tower of a wind turbine

Abstract

A tower for a wind turbine is provided, including at least one tubular tower section, the tower section including two or more ring segments forming together a ring element and a connection arrangement connecting two adjacent ones of the ring segments with each other, wherein the connection arrangement includes gap generation means for generating and maintaining a predefined gap between the two adjacent ring segments. By allowing the gap between the connected ring segments, arranging and connecting the ring segments is facilitated. In particular, a lower precision in positioning the ring segments next to each other is required. Further, the gap generation means allow re-adjustment of the relative position of the connected ring sections at any time during manufacture and/or operation.
