Artificial islands aid sinking of pier caissons
Use of artificial islands in starting and sinking, by open dredging, of foundation caissons for three piers of new reinforced-concrete multiple-arch Grey Street bridge across Brisbane River, Brisbane, Australia; pneumatic pressures up to 60 lb per sq in., required to bottom caissons in bed-rock at max depth of 107 ft below high tide.
