Learn Practical Steps to Perfect Dock Pile Installation
Saved by uncleflo on January 16th, 2022.
The dock is a spot you may spend lots of quality time with friends and family. It is where you may expect people to not only walk, but also run or jump on it. That is why the dock has to be strong and stable enough to endure all of this. The last thing you want happening is the dock collapsing because of poor or a weak piling. And the best way to prevent this is through a strong and appropriate dock piling installation. It has to be done in such a way that it will be able to last through years of bad weather and marine degradation. There are three main ways to install dock piling.

The day we gave in to pier pressure - Soundings Online
Saved by uncleflo on January 16th, 2022.
Most boaters have one very important thing in common. The safety of their boats often depends on it. Their own safety - sometimes their lives - may depend on it. This thing is used on an everyday basis and also during emergencies and in storms. But few of us give it much thought. Few of us have a clue about what makes it good, bad or indifferent, although we should insist that it be "good." This thing is the pier. I have a clue now. I thought I did before, but I learned a few things recently because my pier of 27 years began falling apart. I had been concerned about it for some time because wooden pilings, stringers and crossties don't last forever in water full of things that eat wood. But the pier was supposedly well built, and it seemed to be doing its job, so I left it alone. As a result, I learned some things about what we should look for when we call a marina to seek shelter in a storm, rent a slip for a season, buy a "dockominium" or even rent a slip overnight. Doing any of these things without giving some thought to whether the pier can do the job you need could cause you big trouble.

How to Install Posts in the Water for a Dock or Pier: 14 Steps
Saved by uncleflo on January 16th, 2022.
If you want to build a pier or a dock, you need good, sturdy pilings or posts to support it. Unless you have the heavy equipment to drive the pilings into the ground, you’ll either need to use a jet of water to dig a deep hole or set the pilings in concrete footers. Jetting is better for sandy soil, while concrete is more stable for muddy beds. Although this project may require some special tools and a couple of people to lend a helping hand, you’ll be able to enjoy fun on the waterfront for years to come! If you need to install posts in the water for a dock or a pier, measure and cut pilings made of pressure-treated wood. The pilings should be the length you need to support your structure, plus an extra 4-6 feet that you can bury in the ground. Have some friends help you stand the first piling in the water, then aim the tip of a high-powered hose or a water jetter at the base of the piling and turn on the pump. The force of the water should blast away the sand and mud beneath the wood, creating a hole so you can sink the piling. Keep reading to learn how to pour concrete posts!
