Testing towers and foundations. New test centre tests support structures and associated construction methods for wind turbines.
Manufacturers are offering ever larger and more powerful wind turbines for utilising wind power. As the wind turbine sizes increase, the wind and weather take an increasing toil on the structures and turbine components. Hanover University’s Test Center Support Structures opened in 2014 to enable the components used for the tower and foundations to be tested and optimised in advance. Here components made of steel, concrete and other materials are tested to their limits.
