Methods for reinforcing a stealth pole
A stealth pole includes a plurality of canister sections, each of the plurality of canister sections including a spine, a first splice plate located on a first end of the spine, a second splice plate located on a second end of the spine, and a canister cover that covers the spine, the first splice plate and the second splice plate. A method for reinforcing the stealth pole includes removing the canister cover from at least one of the plurality of canister sections; attaching a plurality of stiffener members to the first splice plate and the second splice plate; and applying tension, compression or a combination thereof to the plurality of stiffener members. The plurality of stiffener members reinforce the spine of the canister section. A reinforced stealth pole is also described.
METHOD FOR TRANSPORTING A TOWER SECTION, TOWER SECTION, TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR INSTALLING A WIND TURBINE
A method for transporting a tower section of a wind turbine, comprising the steps of: providing a tower section which is adapted to be transported in a predetermined transport position, wherein the tower section when in the transport position has a longitudinal axis extending in the horizontal direction and a wall extending along the longitudinal axis, wherein the tower section is adapted to adopt a first vertical height when in an unstressed state in the transport position, applying a deformation force to the wall so as to elastically deform at least one portion of the tower section in such a way that the tower section adopts a second vertical height that is smaller than the first vertical height when in an elastically deformed state in the transport position, and locking the tower section in the elastically deformed state.
