Abstract
A retention fixture for retaining a first end of a first member, such as a section of a wind turbine tower, a wind turbine rotor blade or a wind turbine hub, having an axial direction, a transverse direction perpendicular to the axial direction, and a vertical direction perpendicular to the axial and transverse directions. The transverse and vertical directions define a first plane. A first axial end console counteracts relative horizontal displacement between the first end of the first member and the retention fixture in the axial direction. The first axial end console also has transverse positioning means to transversely position the first end of the first member relative to the retention fixture when attaching the retention fixture to a first end of a first member. The transverse positioning means counteracts relative displacement between the first end of the first member and the retention fixture in the transverse direction.
