Die hohlen Beton-Doppelwandelemente werden mit Hilfe eines Krans exakt aufeinander gestapelt und dann vor Ort mit Beton ausgegossen.
The new concrete tower construction method, which has been developed by TU Wien, offers significant benefits specifically for wind turbines. More and more wind power plants are producing electricity - but what is the best method for building them? The team led by Prof. Johann Kollegger at the Institute of Structural Engineering at TU Wien has developed a new tower construction method which combines the key benefits of the existing methods. Double-wall elements are initially joined together on the ground to form large double-walled concrete rings. These rings are then lifted one on top of the other and finally filled with concrete. The construction of tall towers, e.g. for wind turbines, is faster and less expensive using this technique. Prof. Johann Kollegger explains: "In wind turbine construction, large precast concrete parts are usually delivered to the construction site. These are then assembled into a tower and then fixed to one another.
