TOWER SEGMENT ERECTION TOOL AND METHOD OF ERECTING A TOWER SEGMENT
A tower segment erection tool having a frame with a first side, an opposite second side and a mechanism for holding the frame with its first side at the bottom of a tower segment. A first support element adjoins the second side so it is located under part of the segment's peripheral wall when the tool is attached to the segment. The first support element has a curved surface allowing a rolling motion. A second support element adjoins the second side and has a foot that is spaced from the curved surface so it is in the segment's centre axis and is further from the bottom in a direction parallel to the centre axis than the curved surface when the tool is attached to the segment. During erection, the tool rolls about the curved surface until the foot of the second support element touches the ground.
