Grouting Technology Application and Development in Offshore Wind Farm
-
Abstract
Offshore grouting is an important technology impacting the offshore wind power development. Due to the long-term dynamic loading of offshore wind turbine, there is a big difference in grout material, connection type, mechanics and others compared with conventional marine engineering. Offshore wind turbine foundation grouting has superior performance of high early and final strengthen, fatigue resistant and segregation resistant. In this paper, grout material requirement was first introduced briefly. Then two typical grouted connection types of monopile and jacket as well as their engineerign application were described in detail. Finally, grout diseases's monitoring and repair was stated briefly and overview of offshore grouting technology's development was summarized.
