The Piling Versatility You Need


The Role of Marine Pilings

Marine pilings are the vital connection between the land and the water, serving as the backbone of waterfront structures. These pilings are meticulously spaced according to engineered specifications that determine their load-bearing capacity, aligning them with the size and structure of the dock. Pilings provide the structural support for everything that rests upon the dock, ensuring its strength and stability.

 

Connecting Strength to Seawall

A hallmark of our expertise is the seamless integration of marine pilings with the seawall. This connection reinforces the seawall's robustness, adding an extra layer of resilience to withstand the forces of nature and tides. The synergy between pilings and seawall is where our mastery truly shines.

 

Versatile Finishing Options

Marine pilings can be tailored to your aesthetic preferences and functional requirements. They can extend above the dock, offering a variety of finishing options such as piling strips or piling boxes that harmonize with the dock's decking material. The finishing touch adds not only strength but also visual appeal to the entire structure.

 

Customized Height Options

For those seeking an open and clean look, pilings can be cut off below the dock level. While this option provides a sleek appearance, it necessitates setting cleats directly on the deck, which may pose a tripping hazard. Nevertheless, it is a choice appreciated for its minimalist elegance.

 

Dolphin Pilings for Mooring

Dolphin pilings are a specialty installation. Isolated from the main structure, they serve as mooring devices for boats. These pilings allow boats to tie up between the dock and the dolphin piling, preventing unintended contact with the dock and protecting vessels during incoming tides.


Wood vs. Concrete Pilings

Wood pilings, wrapped in plastic for protection, have an estimated lifespan of approximately 30 years. They offer the advantage of relative ease in replacement if damaged. On the other hand, concrete pilings, known for their strength, are a permanent fixture once installed and typically require heavy equipment for removal.

 

Precision Driven Depths

To fulfill their intended purpose, marine pilings must be driven down to specific depths. This precision ensures their load-bearing capacity and the structural integrity of the waterfront project.
