A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Application of large diameter high tensile, low alloy tubular steel piles; flexibility of long artificial piles was utilized to absorb berthing impact energy of large cargo vessels and also to resist static mooring loads; unconventional pile handling and driving methods facilitated execution of work in harbor with 20-ft tidal variations; simplicity of design and careful scheduling of all construction phases were two governing requirements.
