Construction of offshore wind power foundations
Methods for constructing foundations 10 for offshore wind turbine power plants, the methods comprising: positioning a crane 12 at a construction site 11, the crane being rotatable about a vertical axis; providing a plurality of workspaces 15,15a-d disposed about the crane; at each of a plurality of construction spaces 19,19a-d disposed about the crane and arranged between two of a plurality of workspaces, constructing a foundation by moving at least two elongate foundation parts 16,25a-h into two workspaces adjacent the construction space, pivoting each of the two foundation parts to a vertical or substantially vertical orientation, and interconnecting the two foundation parts at the construction space such as to form part of the foundation. An alternative method comprises positioning three first floater columns 20a,21a,22a about the crane, for each of the three first floater columns positioning two further floater columns 20b-c,21b-c,22b-c distally away from the crane, installing side connection members 16 between the first floater column and each of the two further floater columns;
