The structure is divided into 28 open\u00a0caissons placed sideways along two\u00a0lines. The caissons ballast the gate to\u00a0enable the opening and shutting of\u00a0Forme 10.
\nThe purpose of the diagnosis was to\u00a0determine if the barge, which had been\u00a0out of use for several years, was\u00a0capable of closing Forme 10 during the\u00a0renovation works of the dry dock and\u00a0the construction of a new barge.<\/p>\n
As the purpose of the diagnosis was to determine whether the\u00a0Forme 10 barge was capable of being reused in its current\u00a0condition, it was necessary to optimise the structural investigations\u00a0in order to ensure an accurate understanding of the structure and\u00a0to determine the various properties of the materials and residual\u00a0values of the prestressed concrete.<\/p>\n Barge for one of Europe\u2019s largest\u00a0dry docks:<\/p>\n In collaboration with Setec TPI and Lerm,\u00a0DIADES was tasked with carrying out the\u00a0diagnosis of the Forme 10 barge.\u00a0Diad\u00e8s led the diagnosis with the help of\u00a0LERM\u2019s assessment of the materials and the\u00a0structural assessment carried out by SETEC\u00a0TPI.<\/p>\n Diad\u00e8s\u2019 task consisted of:<\/p>\n Download the project sheet <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"![\"GPMM](\"http:\/\/www.diades.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/GPMM-BATEAU-PORTE.jpg\")
