ABSTRACT:
A modular system of offshore structures having one or more hyperboloidal structures which are adapted to cooperate with a variety of ringlike foundation elements, for example by mooring or rigid attachment. The hyperboloidal structure comprise pile arrays, frames and shells. Hyperboloidal pile array structures are composed of members which conform to the downward clockwise and counterclockwise ruling on a hyperboloid of revolution of one sheet, thereby providing useful attachment means to the marine floor, which has resistance to scouring and provide both tension and compressive resistance to the force of the sea. The hyperboloid shells are broad at the base for support and on the top to provide a large work area and when optimally placed, they are narrow at the water surface where the greatest environmental impact occurs.
