Definitions

  • the invention relates to a foundation pile for producing a foundation for a structure in the water, preferably offshore, and a method for producing a foundation for a structure in the water, especially offshore.
  • the offshore wind turbine includes a gravity foundation as a foundation, which is located in the seabed. On the gravity foundation, the tower of the wind turbine is built, which extends from the gravity foundation in the water to the sea surface and then up to the maximum height of the tower to the nacelle.
  • the tower is conical. The largest diameter of the tower is present at its base in the water on the Gravity Fund.
  • foundation piles are introduced into the soil.
  • the opening into which the pile is lowered is created, in particular by the use of drilling technology ( DE 10 2009 023 466 A1 ). It is necessary that the bore has a larger diameter than the foundation pile. This difference is called an overcut. This is done to the Absinkwiderstand when introducing the foundation pile in the opening to reduce.
  • the overcut is filled during drilling with a suspension to support the borehole wall surrounding the bore with a suspension of, for example, bentonite. After the completion of the drilling operation and the introduction of the foundation pile in the bore, it is necessary to press the pile against the ground.
  • cement is introduced into the overcut, which stabilizes the pile from the ground after curing.
  • the overlying suspension is pushed out by pressing in the cement. In doing so, it shall be prevented that the suspension exits the overcut into the water to avoid turbidity or contamination of the water.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a foundation pile, with which it is possible to avoid that the overlying suspension does not escape into the water.
  • the foundation pile is to be optimized for the use of drilling technology within the pile.
  • this object is achieved in that a foundation pile is provided with a section located in the ground, in which the outer diameter of the in-ground portion of the foundation pile from below (bottom of the pile bottom) increases upward to the water bottom, and the outer diameter is designed as a function of the bending moment curve acting on the pile.
  • the advantage here is that additional sealing measures, such as the assumption of Auflägichtungen on the river bottom, are avoided.
  • the inner diameter is constant or conically tapering towards the bottom of the water. This is advantageous in terms of the drilling technique which is lowered into the foundation pile, since the prevailing projections of the inside diameter are avoided depending on the wall thickness resulting from the bending moment curve, which results in a simpler use of the drilling technique.
  • the outer diameter is greater than 3 m.
  • a single foundation can be provided, for example, for a tower of a wind turbine by a pile.
  • the diameter can be adjusted so that the pipe sections of the tower of the wind turbine can be placed directly on the pipe sections of the foundation pile.
  • the pile consists of pipe sections, preferably made of concrete or steel.
  • the maximum outer diameter depending on the bending moment curve of the foundation pile already 3 m to 8 m, preferably 5 m, below the water bottom is achieved.
  • the annular gap on the seabed is closed by the widening of the outer diameter and the adjacent soil is already compacted. This gives the pile an immediate stabilization and the vertical alignment is maintained even with the already existing horizontal load attack by currents.
  • the overcut is sealed in this way, so that nothing can escape into the open water during pressing and hardening with cement from the overcut.
  • a further teaching of the invention provides that a tube shot is arranged in the region of the water bottom, which closes an overcut formed during drilling of the opening / bore into which the pile is lowered, the tube shot preferably having a conically increasing outside diameter.
  • the object of the invention is achieved by a tower with a foundation of a previously described foundation pile, wherein the tower is made of pipe sections, which have an outer diameter depending on the bending moment pattern acting on the respective tube shot.
  • the object according to the invention is achieved by a method for producing a foundation for a structure in water, in particular offshore, in which a pile is lowered into the ground into an opening, wherein the opening in the ground is produced by means of drilling technology, when drilling an overcut is generated so that the opening is larger than the pile and the overcut is filled with a suspension, wherein the pile is introduced with an increasing outer diameter in the opening and the outer diameter increases towards the water bottom.
  • a pile is lowered into the ground into an opening, wherein the opening in the ground is produced by means of drilling technology, when drilling an overcut is generated so that the opening is larger than the pile and the overcut is filled with a suspension, wherein the pile is introduced with an increasing outer diameter in the opening and the outer diameter increases towards the water bottom.
  • Another teaching of the invention provides that the outer diameter increases until the diameter of the overcut is reached.
  • drilling takes place in full section or partial section, wherein this is preferably carried out unmanned.
  • Fig. 1 shows a schematic foundation pile 10, which is introduced in a waterbed 11.
  • the foundation pile 10 consists of a section 12 located in the ground, a section 14 located in the water 13, and an airborne section 15.
  • a bending moment curve 16 is shown, which consists of the loads from the flow 17 and the wind 18 the pile 10 results.
  • Fig. 2 shows a foundation pile 10 according to the prior art. This has a constant outer diameter 19 and a variable inner diameter 20.
  • the bore 21 has an overcut 22 which is arranged between outer wall 23 of the foundation pile 10 and borehole wall 24. In the region of the outlet region 25 in the region of the body of the water 26, as in Fig. 2 shown, the overcut 22 open to the waters 13.
  • the foundation pile 10 is constructed of pipe sections 27.
  • the outer diameter 19 of the pipe sections 27 is constant.
  • the wall thickness 28 is adapted to the bending moment curve 16. This results in a changing inner diameter 20.
  • Fig. 3 shows a first embodiment according to the invention of a foundation pile 10.
  • the foundation pile 10 is also constructed of pipe sections 27 having a constant inner diameter 20.
  • the wall thickness 28 is also adapted to the bending moment curve 16, but in such a way that the outer diameter 19 is carried out differently. The changes in the outer diameter 19 can be done in steps or continuously.
  • the foundation pile is inserted into the bore 21.
  • Between outer wall 23 and borehole wall 24 is also an overcut 22 which is filled with suspension.
  • the outer diameter 19 of the tube section 27 is designed so that the outer diameter 19 is greater than the overcut 22.
  • Fig. 4 shows a second embodiment according to the invention of a foundation pile 10. This differs from the first embodiment in that in the transition region 29 of the overcut 22 is wider, for example, by the soil condition of the water bottom 11, so that the overcut 22 there is greater than the expected after bending moment curve outside diameter 19 of the pipe section 27 located there. For this reason, the outer diameter of the pipe section is additionally increased in this area, so that a trespassing sealing section 31 is present. This sealing portion 31 causes the closure of the overcut 22 in the transition region.
  • the sealing portion 31 can be effected either by an increase in the wall thickness 28 of this tube section 27 or by providing an additional sealing component that is placed on the outer wall 23 of the tube section 27.
