The term Dock Construction is applied generally, and particularly abroad, to structures known more specifically as dry docks, graving-docks, floating docks, etc., but in this locality it seems to be applied indiscriminately to what are known elsewhere as piers or wharves. The term is used here to specify the structures at which vessels berth, and discharge and take on passengers and freight.
