Abstract

The invention relates to a method for constructing a foundation for a tower structure, comprising at least one structure-side connection profile in the form of a pipe segment. The method has the steps of providing a foundation pile with a diameter which differs from the diameter of the pipe segment, vibrating and/or ramming the foundation pile into a supporting substratum, aligning and fixing the pipe segment coaxially and concentrically to the foundation pile introduced into the substratum such that an annular space is formed between the pipe segment and the foundation pile, and filling the annular space with a curable casting compound.
