METHOD FOR THE REALIZATION OF ARTIFICIAL ISLANDS, EMBANKMENTS, PIERS, BREAKWATERS, PLATFORMS, OR SIMILAR STRUCTURES IN BODIES OF WATER AND STRUCTURES OBTAINED

摘要

Artificial islands, embankments, piers, breakwaters, platforms, or similar structures, to be installed in bodies of water, such as rivers, lakes, seas, marshes, etc. comprising at least one pillar ( 10 ) realized by assembling a floating basement ( 11 ) with a set of structural elements ( 12 ) having same shape and dimensions. The basement ( 11 ) is a hollow part made of a bottom ( 15 ), and side walls ( 14 ) which delimitate an internal hollow space that can be reached from the outside through an aperture ( 18 ). The basement ( 11 ) is placed in an installation site ( 40 ) through, for instance, a crane. Then, on the bottom ( 15 ) of the basement ( 11 ) is laid down a certain quantity of a filling material ( 35 ) until the basement is partly under water. On the basement ( 11 ) are then positioned structural elements ( 12 ), one on top of the following. These are provided with side walls ( 14 ) having same shape and dimensions of the basement's side walls, and they are firmly fixed to one another in order to provide sealing and to avoid seepage of water inside the pillar ( 10 ) under construction. The above procedure is carried out until the basement ( 11 ) gets the bed ( 30 ) of the body of water. From the top of the last structural element ( 12 ) of the pillar ( 10 ), or head structural element, is inserted the filling material up to realize a firm flat surface ( 50 ) apt to be a base for any kind of building.
