Floating-box bulwark structure and construction method for same

Abstract

The invention discloses a floating-box bulwark structure which is constituted through connection of multiple floating-box bulwark units. Each bulwark unit comprises a floating box, anchor chains, sinking boxes and anti-sinking plates, wherein top and bottom of the floating box are opened, fixation structures are installed on the two openings, space formed by the floating box and the fixation structure is filled with a blind groove structure, and connecting structures are fixed on two relative outer side walls of the floating box; the anchoring chains are vertically connected to circumferencesof the bottom of the floating box, winches are disposed on the floating box, and the quantity and installation positions of the winches are corresponding to the anchor chains; the sinking boxes are connected to the anchor chains, and filling holes are formed in the tops; and the anti-sinking plates are fixed on bottoms of the sinking boxes. The invention also discloses a construction method for the floating-box bulwark structure. In comparison with a traditional bulwark structure, the floating-box bulwark structure disclosed by the invention has the beneficial effects that construction, installation, repair and replacement are easy; force bearing is stable; and wave elimination effects are good.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of wave prevention and wave elimination in marine engineering, in particular to a buoyant box type breakwater structure and a construction method thereof. Background technique [0002] Fixed breakwaters are usually built by stacking rocks or pouring large amounts of cement on rock foundations. As the growing maritime activities require deeper channels and ports with greater throughput, the construction of traditional submarine fixed breakwaters will greatly increase the construction cost and difficulty. On the other hand, fixed breakwaters can seriously impede the water circulation and allow the deposition of pollutants and sediment near the protected area. [0003] Floating breakwaters have many advantages over fixed breakwaters. Their construction is virtually independent of water depth and seabed conditions. Tidal changes and rising sea levels caused by global warming also have little effect on these floating st...
