The application relates to a floatation assisting structure for reducing the draught of a
immersed tube segment and a mounting method thereof. The floatation assisting structure for reducing the draught of the
immersed tube segment comprises float boxes arranged symmetrically on two sides and connected by a bottom support. Under the action of the
buoyancy of the float boxes on the two sides, the bottom support can lift the
immersed tube segment upwards, so that the immersed tube segment can have a shallower draught during floatation, the immersed tube segment has a shallower draught, the excavation depth of a long-distance shallow and narrow waterway can be reduced, the
engineering quantity is smaller, the construction period is shorter, and the cost is lower; the influence of the excavation of the waterway on existing buildings and structures is reduced, and the influence on the
ecological environment in the waterway range is smaller. The risk of grounding during the tide passing in the
window period is smaller, and in some places where the
water depth meets the demand, the tide passing in the
window period is not needed, so that the conditions for floatation of the immersed tube segment are easier to meet.
