Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0514559A1] An area (a) about two metres deep is excavated in the direction of inclination of the tower (Fig. 1); several trenches about 1.2 metres wide and two to three metres deep (depending on the nature of the soil) are now excavated (b) (Fig. 1); a crushed-stone course is placed on the bottom of the trenches; the crushed-stone course is driven into the subsoil by the pile hammer until the compaction is so dense that the crushed stone begins to break down into dust. The load-bearing capacity of bed rock is thus virtually reached. A course of ready-mixed concrete is now applied; a crushed-stone course is in turn placed on the latter and is again driven into the concrete course with the pile hammer. A concrete course is again applied to this, and a crushed-stone course is again applied to the concrete course, which crushed-stone course is again compacted with the pile hammer. This is repeated until the trench forms a plane with the land remaining. Steel members in any number and thickness are now placed on this concrete body (b) and are concreted (c) with one end into the foundation of the tower. <IMAGE>
