The compliant structures are one of the offshore structures used in oil and gas industry. This type of structures requires special considerations during their design procedure. However, construction of such structures has share similarities with conventional steel jacket structures. The aim of this paper is to present a general guidance about the design and construction of compliant towers. Moreover, design and analysis methods of the structure along with the required data for design of piles with respect to code provisions are provided.
