    Abstract: The invention relates to a method (100) for determining loads on a wind turbine tower. In a first step (110) of the method (100), bending moments in at least one rotor blade of the wind turbine are determined in order to provide a first variable, which identifies a first force acting on a nacelle of the wind turbine tower. In addition, in a second step (120) of the method (100), a nacelle deflection is determined in order to provide a second variable which identifies a second force acting on the nacelle of the wind turbine tower. Furthermore, a third step (130) of the method (100) comprises entering the first variable and the second variable into a calculation model, which displays the behavior of the tower. A fourth step (140) of the method (100) comprises a determination of loads on the tower of the wind turbine by means of the calculation model.

    Abstract: A load pin configured for measuring a force, the load pin including two sensors spaced apart from each other for measuring stress or tension. An axis includes a lateral surface configured to be subjected to a load from an upside in an area of the axis between the two sensors. A slot divides the axis into a lower portion and an upper portion, the slot extending essentially in an axial direction of the axis.
