Special Formwork has designed and supplied purpose made steel forms for a wide variety of turbine bases throughout the UK & Ireland. To date, over 500 onshore wind turbines have been erected on bases constructed using SF steel forms.Smaller wind turbines have required simple circular, rectangular or octagonal bases.Larger turbines have generally required a stepped foundation comprising a large diameter ‘apron’, and smaller diameter plinth.
Circular forms have either been supplied as rigid segments for machine handling, or as man handled flexible panels.
