Conventional tower structures usually use gravity expansion foundations, which are stable and reliable, have mature construction processes, and are cost-controlled. Truss wind turbine towers that have emerged in recent years are gradually being applied to various wind farms due to their small amount of steel, simple manufacturing, and convenient transportation. Since the truss tower is in the application exploration stage, there is currently no mainstream solution or mature, process-based construction technology for connecting the lower foundation of the truss tower.
