Abstract
The analysis of the known technical decisions in dock construction field, rationalizing production resources at composite docks construction is given. It is established that the available solutions do not specify the recommendations for lowering the metal content in the reinforced concrete pontoon of composite floating docks. As a result of the conducted research, the design of floating composite docks was improved by reducing sets in the reinforced concrete pontoon. The rationality of a pontoon design construction without installation of frames, floors, and beams under towers is substantiated. Technological recommendations for the transverse partitions installation between the inner boards in 4 spaces, i.e. in 3 meters in contrast to the classical design in which the distance between the partitions is 1.5 meters, were described. The analysis of the design features of the reinforced concrete pontoon connecting joints with the transverse diaphragm and the metal tower of the floating composite dock is carried out, the difficulties that arise are described. The design and technological recommendations for the construction of the reinforced concrete pontoon joints with the transverse diaphragm and the metal tower have been developed. The floating dock construction sequence and technological operations ensuring concrete’s strength, water tightness and frost resistance at intersection joints are described. Solutions that increase the local adhesion of concrete to cross-shaped parts and prevent its exfoliation have been developed. The traditional scheme of the composite dock construction and a structural joint of a metal tower with a reinforced concrete pontoon is given. The composite dock construction scheme and the construction scheme of the joints of the reinforced concrete pontoon with the transverse diaphragm and the metal tower, which are designed for the construction of floating composite docks with reduced metal content in the pontoon, have been improved.
