Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many potential seafloor structure locations consist of exposed rock or rock with a thin sediment cover. The design of a fixed, bottom-resting structure in such an environment poses a substantial problem because of the unevenness of the bearing surface and the usual accompanying strong currents. The report identifies probable locations of exposed and 'near-surface' seafloor rock; describes the rock surface microrelief or roughness and the rock mass integrity; and examines and criticizes rock foundation concepts.
Download or read book Emplacement of a Heavy Load Onto a Seafloor Foundation written by J. V. Wilson and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emplacement of a heavy load by cable from the surface onto a seafloor foundation in the deep ocean to an accuracy of 1 foot may require a secondary positioning system to supplement the basic ship's stationkeeping. Four possible systems to effect this control are thrusters mounted just above the load, four-point moor with winches mounted above the load, single-point moor with one winch, one thruster, and a rudder, and hauldown system with load-mounted winch. Analysis of load/cable dynamics and operational considerations show that for emplacement of heavy loads (20 to 100 tons), thrusters of 1,000 to 2,000 pounds thrust would be needed, or submersible winches of 5,000-pound capability, or a hauldown winch of 10,000-pound capacity at a constant tension.

Download or read book Foundations for Small Seafloor Installations written by Herbert George Herrmann and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report presents a procedure for the design of foundations for small non-manrated and non-strategic seafloor installations. These procedures are applicable only to installations with dimensions less than 15 feet and submerged weight less than 4000 pounds. They do not require a detailed analysis of the prospective site and are applicable to all seafloor sites, except those located on slopes greater than 10 degrees and those in areas of rapid sediment accumulation, such as off mouths of large rivers. The report includes analyses of vertical and lateral loading and load resistance, tiedowns, use of materials, and foundation emplacement. (Author).
Download or read book Seafloor Foundations Analysis of Case Histories Supplement written by D. A. Raecke and published by . This book was released on 1973 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty-six seafloor foundation case histories are summarized in a continuing effort by NCEL to collect and evaluate foundation design foundation. Analysis of such histories for both successful and unsuccessful installations is of significant value in developing design guidelines for future seafloor structures. The installations analyzed included offshore towers, habitats, acoustic arrays, and numerous other submerged structures. The case histories have two distinctive features-- installations applied only light-to-moderate foundation bearing pressures. Because of the low bearing pressures, few major foundation problems were reported. (Author).

Download or read book Construction of Marine and Offshore Structures written by Cliff Gerwick and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 682 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The leading authority in the field offers a unique and comprehensive treatment of the construction aspects of offshore structures, rather than the more commonly addressed design considerations. Extensively updated, this second edition provides a new chapter on extending offshore technologies to inland waterways and emphasizes recent advances-including floating structures, deep-water structures, ice-resistant structures, and bridge foundations. Construction of Marine and Offshore Structures details all the particulars of building in a marine environment, including construction equipment, marine operations, installing piles, pipelines, and cables, steel and concrete offshore platforms, and underwater repairs. Construction of Marine and Offshore Structures provides an essential reference to engineers in the oil and service industries and to marine construction planners, designers, and contractors. New in the second edition: How the physical environment and geotechnical conditions affect construction Increased attention to protecting the natural environment and compliance with regulatory provisions Recent developments in positioning, instrumentation, and underwater inspection, plus a new section on concrete and steel floating structures and installing permanent moorings Expanded treatment of deep water bridge piers as well as locks and dams on major rivers.
