  • Underwater Concrete in Drilled Shafts: the Key Issues and Case Histories
    Underwater Concrete in Drilled Shafts: the Key Issues and Case Histories Sam X. Yao1 and Robert B. Bittner2 ABSTRACT: In construction of drilled shafts under water, placing concrete in the shafts is technically demanding and involves complex construction logistics. Past construction experience has demonstrated that high quality concrete can be placed in drilled shafts under water with a proper concrete mix and proper placement techniques. However, a significant number of failures have occurred which have resulted in excessive cost overruns and delays. These problems may have occurred because proper underwater concrete construction techniques have not been widely disseminated within the industry. This is a technical area where competent design and sound construction planning can achieve a significant reduction in both risk and cost. This paper will discuss some key technical issues in the concrete mix design, concrete production and placement for the drilled shaft construction. The paper also describes two lesson-learned case histories from drilled shaft construction projects. INTRODUCTION Placing concrete in the shafts is one of the most critical and complex operations that often determine success or failure of many drilled shaft construction projects. If the concrete is placed under water, the construction is even more technically demanding and involves complex construction logistics. A number of failures have occurred due to improper concrete mix or improper construction procedures. The following sections present some important technical issues that are frequently encountered in underwater construction of drilled shafts. CONCRETE MIX DESIGN Because concrete placed underwater is inherently susceptible to cement washout, laitance, segregation, cold joints, and water entrapment, it must possess some unique properties that are not otherwise required.

  • Design and Construction of Marine Structures
    Technical Fundamentals for Design and Construction October 6, 2018 Design and Construction of Marine Structures Key Points 1. Approximately 71 percent of the earth's surface is covered in water, and the oceans hold about 96 percent of all the earth's water. 2. Construction and further development in the marine environment is essentially our primary remaining frontier on earth. 3. There exists a real opportunity and need for innovation and new technologies that have the potential to improve the quality of marine structures effectively while reducing the cost, time, and risk of construction. 4. The marine environment offers significant opportunities that do not exist with on‐land construction. The most important of these is the ability to construct massive structures at an optimum location in a fully controlled environment with skilled labor and then transport an essentially complete structure great distances for installation in a severe marine environment. These structures include bridge foundations, tunnels, offshore platforms, gravity‐base structures, dams, airfields, breakwaters, surge barriers, and power stations harnessing energy from wave, wind, tides, and currents. It can be a truly exciting and satisfying adventure. Design for Construction of Marine Structures When designing a structure for the marine environment, it is essential to first envision the means, methods, and equipment needed to build the structure. This can be considered the initial construction engineering task of marine construction. This task includes design of systems to move extreme heavy loads vertically and horizontally both in and out of water, and design of systems to control and maintain buoyancy and stability during all in‐water construction phases including launch, transport, and immersion.

Gerwick Inc. and University 47.7 Present and Future Trends of California, Berkeley Present Practice • Deep Water Concepts 47.1 Introduction The design and construction of the piers for overwater bridges present a series of demanding criteria. In service, the pier must be able to support the dead and live loads successfully, while resisting environmental forces such as current, wind, wave, sea ice, and unbalanced soil loads, sometimes even including downslope rock fall. Earthquake loadings present a major challenge to design, with cyclic reversing motions propagated up through the soil and the pier to excite the superstructure. Accidental forces must also be resisted. Collision by barges and ships is becoming an increasingly serious hazard for bridge piers in waterways, both those piers flanking the channel and those of approaches wherever the water depth is sufficient.
