Strap and Tensioning Mechanism for Attaching Flotation Modules to Marine Structures, namely Port Security Barriers (PSBs)

摘要

A strap and tensioning mechanism for attaching flotation modules to sections of Port Security Barriers (PSBs) is disclosed. Preferably, the strap is made from non-metallic fibers, preferably in an axially aligned or linear configuration, to form the strap, the fibers preferably being made of Aramid. Other strong synthetic fibers exhibiting desired thermal and other properties are suitable, as well.
