Berthing Quay at Port of Ostend
Beam of new design, known as Preflex, reduces construction costs; it utilizes high tensile steel and high grade factory concrete to provide high load bearing capacity on greater range of span to depth ratios than previously economic; quay is 1320 ft long, 36 ft wide and is comprised mainly of platform, supported at front on curtain wall of reinforced concrete sheet piling, and at rear on prefabricated reinforced concrete trestles; reinforced concrete slab platform is supported on Preflex beams.
