Patent ID: 7841143

Claim:
A tower construction comprising: a concrete element; a base flange comprising a lower surface and an opposite upper surface from which a tower wall extends upwardly, the base flange being supported by an intermediate support structure positioned on the concrete element, the support structure being more rigid than the concrete element; and a second casting layer located between the concrete element and the base flange, the second casting layer being provided to distribute a pressure on the support structure to the concrete element; the support structure comprising a resilient pressure distributing element and a levelling structure being located between the lower surface and the pressure distributing element, the resilient pressure distribution element being soft relative to the concrete element and the levelling structure being provided to level the base flange relative to the concrete element, wherein the rigidity of the combination of the resilient pressure distributing element and the levelling structure is in the range of the rigidity of the second casting layer.
