A foundation for a wind mill includes a circular or polygonal pedestal for supporting a wind mill tower and a plurality of ribs radiating radially outwardly from the pedestal, wherein the pedestal is divided into a plurality of circumferential sections, wherein a circumferential section and a rib are each integrally formed with one another as a precast concrete element, wherein the precast concrete elements are made from reinforced concrete including a first reinforcement structure, in particular reinforcement bars, embedded into the precast concrete elements, a second reinforcement structure is provided, which holds the precast concrete elements together and which is coupled to the first reinforcement structure.

Foundation for a wind mill

A foundation for a windmill with a base ring composed of prefabricated concrete elements and divided into several ring sections and support elements extending radially outward from the base ring, wherein the base ring is supported on the support elements by primary strut ribs and wherein a mounting ring, which is divided into several ring sections and composed of prefabricated concrete elements, is placed on the base ring and connected to the base ring, wherein the construction ring is supported by secondary strut ribs on the primary strut ribs.

Foundation for a windmill

A foundation for a windmill includes an annular pedestal, which is divided into several ring sections and is composed of prefabricated concrete elements, the pedestal including a platform for a windmill tower and several support elements extending radially outward from the pedestal, wherein the pedestal is supported by strut ribs on the support elements, wherein the pedestal, at its end forming the platform, includes a circumferential projection extending radially outward from the pedestal and including at least one channel for receiving a tensioning cable, the channel being provided in the projection and extending in the circumferential direction.

A foundation for a wind mill includes a circular or polygonal pedestal for supporting a wind mill tower and a plurality of ribs radiating radially outwardly from the pedestal, wherein the pedestal is divided into a plurality of circumferential sections, wherein a circumferential section and a rib are each integrally formed with one another, or are each formed, as a precast concrete element, wherein the precast concrete elements are made from reinforced concrete including a first reinforcement structure, in particular reinforcement bars, embedded into the precast concrete elements, neighbouring precast concrete elements, in their sections radiating outwardly from the pedestal, are spaced from each other in a circumferential direction and the clearance between two neighbouring precast concrete elements is each bridged by a bridging plate.

A foundation for a windmill, has a circular or polygonal pedestal for supporting a windmill tower, and a plurality of ribs which project radially outwards from the pedestal, wherein the pedestal is divided in the vertical direction into a base ring section and an adapter ring section, the base ring section being divided into a plurality of peripheral sections and composed of precast concrete elements, and the adapter ring section likewise being composed of precast concrete elements.

In a foundation for a windmill with a circular or polygonal pedestal for supporting a windmill tower and a plurality of ribs, which project radially outwards from the pedestal, the pedestal is divided into a plurality of circumferential portions, wherein a circumferential portion and a rib are each formed by at least one prefabricated concrete element, respectively, and wherein the prefabricated concrete elements are made of reinforced concrete, which includes a first reinforcement structure, which includes radial tensioning elements, in particular tension rods or tensioning strands, for stressing the prefabricated concrete elements. A second reinforcement structure is also provided, which holds the circumferential portions together and is coupled with the first reinforcement structure, in particular the radial tensioning elements.
