FLOATING DOCKS USING TREATED SOUTHERN PINE

MCMag Sep 16 2020 BLOG Leave a comment 472 Views

The use of treated Southern Pine in floating docks has proven itself in both public and private applications. The pleasing appearance of the treated timber, long service life with ease of repair, and resistance to impact damage make Southern Pine an attractive choice for commercial and residential builders. Floating docks are anchored using the 4-roller inside pile guides or single roller hoop guides as shown at right. Floats, commonly 2’ X 4’, are attached to the stringer system with bolts through the 2 X 8 bolting plates. The designer must be familiar with water levels and tidal actions in the area of the floating dock system, including abnormal water levels associated with storm surge.
