Project 1
6' × 74' Pier
This 6’ x 74’ pier is officially complete and ready to enjoy. Another great project from start to finish—from fabrication in our shop to final installation on the water. Another job we’re proud to put our name on. A big thank you to our crew for the hard work and attention to detail that went into bringing this project together.
- Location
- Poor House Cove South Bristol
- Type of work
- Pier construction and installation
- The challenge
- One of the primary challenges of this 6’ x 74’ pier project was placing concrete along a shoreline with an elevation change of approximately 30–40 feet, making access with a conventional concrete truck impossible. Using our marine equipment, we mixed concrete directly on the barge, transferred it by hopper, and placed it with our crane—allowing us to efficiently complete the pour from the water. The pier was also constructed in multiple 34-foot sections, requiring precise pile placement to ensure each section landed correctly on its pile caps while keeping the entire structure square and properly aligned.
- Work completed
- Once the concrete work was complete and final measurements were established, we laid out and pile drove the structural pilings to refusal. Each piling was then cut to the proper benchmark elevation in preparation for setting the pier. The 6’ x 74’ pier was prefabricated in sections at our shop and transported to the project site. Using our barge-mounted crane, we lifted each section from the barge, positioned it over the pilings, and secured it in place. With the main pier installed, we hung the gangway, positioned the float, and drove the guide piles to complete the system. From shop fabrication and pile driving to crane work and final installation, the entire project was completed using our own crew and marine equipment.
- Finished result
- Built to last. Built on the water. Another job we’re proud to put our name on. The finished 6’ x 74’ pier provides a strong, functional waterfront system designed for years of use, with a gangway and float system completing the connection to the water.
