Scope
Preliminary Deterministic Seismic Hazard Assessment (DSHA), and 3D modelling of a 120 m high precast concrete wind turbine.

Power
85 Wind turbines of 120 m high supported by a pre-stressed precast concrete tower.

Description
Based on the seismic hazard maps of the Mexican territory, as well as in its INIFED-2011 local code, the loads that control the design are analyzed and set in the preliminary study stage. Also, the  acceleration spectrum is set and a dynamic 3D model of the entire wind turbine is performed.

Location
Nuevo Leon State, Mexico.
