Chains
Piles 2/3 L
Floating Pontoons Page 2 Problem
Chains • A lot of movement at low water level
• High impact on underwater world
Lack of Convenience • Disturbing movement in windy and wavy conditions
• Strong jerking due to lack of dampening
Lack of Security • Damages during storms
• Damages due to flotsam
Caution: No damping results in • 5 times higher peak load (wind & waves)
• 10 times higher peak load (flotsam & collisions)
Piles • High impact on underwater world
Lack of Convenience & Security • Strong jerking in windy and wavy conditions (loose piles)
• Overload damages due to limited damping capacity
High Costs • 2/3 of total length needs to be driven into sea/river bed
• Problematical in deep waters and rocky or sandy sea/river beds
Innovation for Floating Pontoons
• Jerk-free for highest convenience
• No Play
Limited sideways movement, regardless of water level
• High Damping Characteristics
Energy caused by wind, waves, flotsam and collisions is absorbed
by the DualDocker. (Big damping space results in low strain!)
• Reduction of Forces
High damping characteristics result in 10 – 20 times less retention
force
• Security during Storms
No more collisions with quayside. The Pontoon lies damped and
secure at its place, even in harsh conditions
• Safe Money
20 times less retention force results in considerably lower forces
Lower overall project costs !
• Eco Friendliness
No impact on underwater world
No piles, no concrete blocks, no chains/deadweights

Convenience • Jerk-free
• Damping without play regardless of water level differences
Security • No collisions with quay
• Reduced forced due to high damping capacity
• Less movement, pontoon lies stable even in harsh
conditions.
• Ultra high damping to prevent collision damages
Cost Reductions
• 20 times less force results in considerably lower
overall project costs.
• Negligable maintenance costs
• No collisions, no repair costs
• No adjusments of chains, concrete blocks or piles
Eco Friendliness • No impact on underwater world
• No piles, no concrete blocks, no chains
