METHOD FOR THE EXTENSION OF FOUNDATIONS IN THE UPSIZING OF WIND FARMS
A foundation extension procedure is disclosed, of the type used in the extension of large structures, and especially its use in the reinforcement of existing wind turbine farms, founded in the earth, which uses an overlaid beams structure on the existing foundation and bonded to it, supported by new, smaller peripheral foundations, creating a new foundation capable of supporting a larger structure, which uses the old foundation as ballast. The main advantage of this procedure is that it allows a quick and economical installation, minimizing the environmental impact, reusing both the existing foundation and most of the complementary infrastructures in the case of wind turbines, achieving a new, larger and stronger foundation, completely integrated in the environment.
