However, relevant research reports point out that the investment in the foundation structure of wind turbines accounts for as much as 16% of the total investment, and it increases with the increase in seawater depth, and can even reach 30% of the total investment cost. Therefore, improving the reliability of the foundation structure of offshore wind turbines is of great research significance for the development of wind power in my country.

[0003] Among the types of offshore wind turbine foundations, the single pile foundation has a simple structure, clear forces, and advantages such as fast construction speed, so the single pile foundation accounts for more than 65% of offshore wind farms at home and abroad. The single pile foundation bears the gravity from the tower and periodic loads such as wind and waves, and it is necessary to ensure that it has sufficient strength, rigidity, stability, fatigue resistance and corrosion resistance. At present, the single pile foundations of wind turbines that are widely studied and applied at home and abroad are mainly steel pipe piles. However, the fatigue problem of steel pipe piles is prominent, and the harsh marine environment will accelerate the corrosion of steel, which will significantly increase the cost of later operation and maintenance, and the foundation is a hidden project and difficult to repair. In addition, as the diameter of the steel pipe pile increases, it will exceed the scope of current manufacturing and installation technology. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the embodiment of the present application is to provide an offshore wind power prestressed UHPC large-diameter thin-walled single pile foundation, which overcomes the shortcomings of traditional steel pipe single pile foundations in terms of manufacturing, durability, and economy.

The steel pile shoe is connected to the prefabricated UHPC pipe pile by a prestressed steel strand, and the prefabricated UHPC pipe pile is connected to the flange plate by a prestressed anchor bolt.

[0006] Furthermore, the steel pile shoe is composed of a flange, a cylinder and a plurality of stiffening ribs, all of which are made of anti-corrosion galvanized steel strip; the diameter and width of the flange are consistent with the bottom cross-section of the prefabricated UHPC pipe pile, and holes are reserved on the flange for the prestressed steel strands to pass through; the inner diameter of the cylinder is equal to the inner diameter of the prefabricated UHPC pipe pile, the cylinder is welded to the flange, and the stiffening ribs are welded to the cylinder and the flange.

[0007] Furthermore, the prefabricated UHPC pipe pile is composed of a plurality of UHPC pipe pile segments, each segment having a diameter-to-thickness ratio of 1 / 40 to 1 / 20; holes are reserved for prestressed steel strands to pass through at corresponding positions of each segment, and each pipe pile segment is connected by the prestressed steel strands.

[0008] Furthermore, a plurality of longitudinal reinforcement stirrups are arranged in the UHPC pipe pile segment, the fiber volume content of the UHPC material is ≥2.0%, the axial tensile strength of the UHPC material is above 8.0 MPa, the axial tensile ultimate strain is above 0.2%, and the compressive strength is above 100 MPa.

[0009] Furthermore, a plurality of grooves are reserved at the top of the UHPC pile, the positions of the grooves correspond to the reserved steel strand holes, and the sizes of the grooves are set according to the anchoring requirements of the prestressed steel strands. After the ends of the prestressed steel strands are sealed and anchored, the grooves are filled with high-strength mortar.

[0010] Furthermore, a number of prestressed anchor bolts are embedded in the top of the UHPC piles.

[0011] Furthermore, the diameter and width of the top flange are consistent with the cross-section of the adjacent prefabricated UHPC piles.

[0012] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0013] (1) The large-diameter UHPC thin-walled pipe piles are prefabricated in sections, which are convenient for manufacturing, steaming and transportation. At the same time, prestressed steel strands are used to connect the various parts of the pile body, which is convenient for construction and installation and has great economic value.

[0014] (2) Prestressed UHPC piles have high rigidity, high bearing capacity, excellent fatigue resistance, impact resistance and corrosion resistance, and have the advantages of both steel and concrete structures, and have significant advantages in carbon emissions. At the same time, they can avoid the serious corrosion problem of steel piles and the 1P resonance problem in deep water, reduce the cost of later operation and maintenance of the structure, and have high economic and social benefits.

[0015] (3) By reserving a groove and pre-embedded prestressed anchor bolts at the top of the UHPC pile, the upper end of the prestressed steel strand is anchored in the groove, and the flange is connected to the top of the UHPC pile through the pre-embedded prestressed anchor bolts, thereby reserving a steel plane at the top of the pile. Therefore, it is particularly suitable for construction using the hammer method, and a larger hammer force can be used to speed up the construction without damaging the component itself.
