Abstract:Higher demand for the load‐bearing ability of supporting foundations is required if its upper wind turbine is substituted by a larger one. Presently, there is a lack of strengthening and retrofitting methods for existing wind turbine foundations. A combined‐connection retrofitting method by adding anchor bolts to the existing wind turbine foundation with embedded‐ring is prompted in this study. Furthermore, a strengthening measure by adding a stiffening beam, expanding the foundation plate, and adding rock bol… Show more
