摘要 |
The invention relates to a metal pile or dolphin (11), a floating pontoon or floating pontoon element being intended to be held in place by one or more of these metal piles or dolphins (11). A ballastable mobile skirt is associated with said pile or dolphin and consists of a tube (1) having a diameter slightly smaller than that of the pile or dolphin (11) which is intended to receive it in order to allow it to slide vertically inside said pile or dolphin, said tube (1) being closed at its upper end so that the volume of air trapped inside it provides sufficient buoyancy to allow it to follow, in the use position, the rising and falling movements of the water or tides, whilst still allowing its top (2) to protrude above the water in order to enable the latter to be fastened to the underside of said floating pontoon or floating pontoon element to be installed, so that the weight of the skirt is not borne thereby. |
