Wind Tower welded structures and concrete foundations require assurance of conformance with local regulations, many of which may not have address the specific issues related to wind turbines. A review of the proposed design, and overlay of the local conditions, by an experienced and independent agency is a critical step in the project.
An independent Design Review by an accredited agency such as Bureau Veritas helps de-risk the wind farm project. Bureau Veritas leverage international experience to translate, for example, European codes of practice for conformance with Australian and New Zealand regulations. Bureau Veritas’ RPEQ Structural / Civil engineers sign off the WT design as verified against project specifications and provide an independent certificate of conformance.
