When it comes to constructing docks that stand the test of time, ensuring both longevity and structural strength is paramount. At our company, we achieve this by driving Schedule 40 steel pipe deep into the ground, providing a robust foundation for our docks.

‍

The Process

1. Selection of Materials:

We start with high-quality Schedule 40 steel pipe, known for its durability and resistance to harsh marine environments. For standard docks, we use standard-sized steel pipes, while for second-story docks, we opt for 4.5-inch steel pipes to support the additional weight and structural demands.

‍

2. Driving the Pipe:

The next step involves using a barge equipped with specialized equipment to drive the steel pipes into the ground. The barge ensures that the pipes are driven to the point where they can no longer penetrate further, guaranteeing a solid and stable foundation.

‍

3. Ensuring Stability:

By driving the pipes to their maximum depth, we ensure that the dock can withstand various environmental stresses, including strong currents, heavy loads, and fluctuating water levels. This method also helps prevent issues such as shifting or sinking over time.

‍

Benefits

- Enhanced Durability:

Using Schedule 40 steel pipe provides excellent resistance to corrosion and wear, crucial for docks exposed to water and weather elements.

‍

- Increased Structural Strength:

The deep driving of the pipes ensures that the dock remains firmly anchored, reducing the risk of structural failure.

‍

- Longevity:

A well-constructed dock with a solid foundation can last for many years, offering a reliable platform for various activities.

‍

By leveraging the strength of Schedule 40 steel pipe and the precision of our barge-driven installation method, we deliver docks that are not only strong and durable but also capable of supporting complex structures like second-story docks. This commitment to quality ensures that our docks provide safe and reliable service for years to come.
