Abstract: A method and system for tensioning a hyperstatic system involves two structures connected to each other, including: a) connecting, by at least one non-adjustable tendon and at least one adjustable tendon which is formed by a tendon coupled to a cylinder in an initially retracted position, an upper structure to a lower structure which is positioned below the upper structure while maintaining zero tension in the tendons; step b) applying a force to the upper structure and/or the lower structure in order to tension each adjustable tendon and to deploy the respective cylinder thereof, the tension of each non-adjustable tendon remaining at zero; and step c) progressively increasing the force until the tension of each non-adjustable tendon reaches a threshold value which brings about a load transfer from the lower structure to the upper structure to allow the lower structure to be supported by the upper structure.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for handling a load, in particular a blade, of an offshore wind turbine system comprising a wind turbine, wherein a crane is temporarily mounted on the platform, the crane having a tower of which a plurality of elements can be telescoped relative to each other. The invention also relates to a crane and to devices suitable for carrying out this method.
