Abstract:
The present relates to a suction foundation in which is penetrated into the seabed by a vacuum pressure of a suction pump, thereby providing a desired foundation support force. The suction foundation includes a hollow caisson having an opening at a lower end thereof, where the suction pump is connected to the hollow caisson and the suction pump allows the hollow caisson to penetrate into the seabed while discharging a fluid in the hollow caisson to an outside thereof by using the vacuum pressure of the suction pump, a lower skirt provided along a circumference of the opening of the hollow caisson and formed into a wave shape having a series of teeth, and having wedge-shaped cross-sections, and a stiffener increasing rigidity of the lower skirt by increasing thickness of a predetermined portion of the lower skirt.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a hybrid wind power tower including: a DSCT structure part having an inner steel tube and an outer steel tube that concentrically stand on a foundation, wherein a space between the inner steel tube and the outer steel tube is filled with concrete; and a steel structure part provided on the DSCT structure part. The hybrid wind power tower having a steel tower and a DSCT tower combined is configured in such a manner that a plastic hinge that is required to bear huge loads is provided with the DSCT tower structure having high strength, and the economical steel tower structure is provided on the plastic hinge, thereby maximizing safety and cost efficiency of a wind power tower.
